Goodbye and Kamsahamida!
Our tour in Korea wrapped up with going round the Korean Folk Village,
staying in love motels and more kimchi and last-minute shopping!
Morgan was making friends with a Korean girl,
and another ...
and one too many here! .... Some Japanese dancers at the Rice Wine Festival wanted a picture of Morgan on their mobile phones. woo hoo!
We've had an excellent time on the whole except for one instance when we had to order food at a local eatery without our Korean guide. We thought we were going to savour some lovely fried squid which was advertised on the shop poster but this was what we got - a freshly chopped-up dead squid still squirming on the plate! ......
I had to refrain from fainting while asking for the squid to be stir-fried in tomato sauce. This might be hard-core to some people like me but there's plenty of other "tamer" foods when we strolled down the hawker stalls later on.
Welcome to the colourful world of Korean cuisine!
