Well finally we have arrived... we have been here almost two weeks and have seen some of the city.. but not much! We are living in a hotel as our housing is not available for another two weeks!!! The novelty of hotel living has definately worn off as we have been living in 3 different hotels over the past month and still have two weeks to go! Internet access has not been available as the hotel wants to charge $10 a day for it and we are so cheap! I just realised someone nearby us has a wireless connection which luckily reaches our room.. Yipee!! I am in contact with the world again!
Seoul is a lovely city and the people are so nice.. the driving is a little eratic but thankfully the car will not arrive for another month so I will worry about that then! The subway access is not stroller friendly at all so I have to wait until the back pack arrives to venture out on my own. My grasp of the language is nothing short of pathetic! My first encounter at the department store resulted in me responding in French and then in Italian!!!! Languages are not my forte but I have kinda mastered three 'phrases' Hello, thank you and 'do you speak English'!!! There you go.. pathetic! Once I have moved into the apartment I will begin lessons!
JB has handled the move pretty well, he keeps saying 'home' and we have to explain to him that this is home... tomorrow Daddy leaves for work and will be gone for a week so I am not sure how that will go Anyway, I will try to make it to some lounges this week! |
