Day 1

Excitement, some nerves and tired eyes started the day off at 3am. The freakishly early start was made bearable by the fact that we were heading off on our first big adventure! A free and completely unexpected upgrade to a limo for the trip to the airport was received with almost childlike excitement and before we knew it we were at the international departures joining the first of many queues for the day.

Some security checks - a random explosives swabbing and a full body scan - gave us some entertainment before we discovered the joys and eccentricities of duty free shopping. We didn't buy anything but found great joy in leaving weird selfies on the iPads as the wallpaper, and trying to figure out what "shark squalene" and "essence of kangaroo" might possibly be.

Taking our seats in the plane we picked some movies and settled in for the 11 hour flight... 11 hours... Gosh. I thought it would be easy. In the end it actually was pretty easy haha. Besides a slightly sore back and butt everything went well and we landed in Korea safe and sound. A beautiful country with beautiful people. Can't wait to see more on our return trip but for tomorrow?.. We're of to paris!!!
