Life in South Korea

My experience in South Korea has been excellent thus far. First I think ill back up and tell a few of the things that happened before we arrived in Korea. As you may know or not know I had my first flight experience when we flew from Atlanta, Georgia to San Francisco, California. The ride was very fun. I wasn't scared at all. But anyway enough about me; well be get to San Francisco to find out that our flight to Korea was delayed about two hours. That two hours turned into the next day because our flight ended up being canceled. Although that put a little damper on our trip, we made the best out of it by spending a wonderful night in San Francisco. To make a long story short, that San Francisco night was filled with lots and lots of memories.
The next day , we finally make our long flight to Korea. The flight did not seem as long as I had imagined it would. Once we arrived in Korea, we were greeted by our tour guide Cindy. She is like the best tour guide ever. She knows everything!!!!!lol. Our hotel here is great. It is equip with an amazing shopping mall, theme park, ice skating rink, and other great things. The hotel I am referring to is none other than Lotte World Hotel. I must not forget to mention the amazing customer service in Korea. They are like the nicest people ever. A few of the wonderful events we have embarked upon thus far would include seeing a Korea traditional dance, eating at the Korea House, visiting the Gyeong Bok Palace, Korea Folk Village, seeing an amazing JUMP performance, eating at the Bellagio, visiting Chung Ang University in both Seoul and An Sung, visiting Posco which is is the fourth largest steel plant, and touring the Bul Kook Temple and Suk Gul Am.

The Korean food is not as bad as I first imagined it would be. There are a lot of good Korean dishes. Today we actually tried to Korean version of Pizza Hut. At first we thought it was going to be horrible, but the pizza was really good. It reminded us of the US. Well that's all for now ill keep ya posted.
