TQ to a korean boy

For this korea trip,
1=i went alone
2=no people come to fetch me from airport
3=i don know to speak korea and they dont speak english
4=SARS is near! (in year 2003)

1+2+3+4 = a extremely excited trip.
When i arrive at Inchion airport. Their poeple is so helpful and bring me to the bus stop when i show them the map. Later, bus driver help me to take my "big" luggage on to bus, help me to put in money.So, i find no problem at all until i go down from the bus.

SHit, where is the hotel (as i suppose to walk some distance from bus stop) . The map i have is totally different from the actual location. During this time, an angle come out *ding...hahah actually is a korean boy, i think he almost same age with me.
he : "*4#%^&" (in korean)
me: "sorry i m not korean"
he:" help me... take... photo"
IC, guess he is a student, he ask me to take 2 card board for him and let him take the picture of the cupboard.
Done..
he:"thank..you"
me: "do u know how to go this hotel" (bit snake follow the stick up)
Then, he bring me walk and walk and ask ppl until in front of the hotel.
Oh! thank you so much.
he:"u..here..do what?"
me:"company seminar"
he:"monday ...tuesday...wednesday...u free... wednesday?" (today is tuesday)
me:"sorry but my schedule is full except today"
he:"ok..."
me:"ok...bye bye, tq"

and he walk away and i forget to ask him to take a picture with me. (please note that i still using a very lousy manual camera that time!)

as the conclusion?! i forget that korea enter world cup...heheh

Palace

Korea Ancient Palace-doesn't it look like Forbidden City in China?

This is the korea ancient palace. During my visit, i found that most of the door is much more smaller for an adult to go through.
I ask my companien, "iziit last time korea people very short?" (such a stupid question)
He reply:" No, it was becuase those door are for servent to go through, they need to bow when going through this door and only emporer can walk straight through main door"
Me :"...." (what the law is this).

Korea

I had never think that i will been to Korea,
Because of SARS, because of Iraq war,
because of France loose in the world cup while Korea won!
I told my friend that i will not go to Korea, even it is FREE.
Who know,after few month, i am at Seoul already.
It first time i travel alone, and it is free...

What the moral behind this story? never say something too early. :)

Paris

I only stay in Lyon for 4 days.
Alhtough i wish very much to visit Paris,
but i had only 3 hours free time during transit in Paris Airpot.
Le tour Eiffel, Notre Dame, Champs-Elysees...I miss them all.
Perhaps one day in the future, i can be there again,
sitting in a cafe beside the street, having a wine and with a digital camera.
To continue my memory... my dream...

I'll be back...

Wine & Tea

Home Made Wine 是我在里昂喝过最好喝的红酒。
当酒一入口，你可感受到酿酒葡萄的一生。
在果树上刚刚结果的时候，由青涩转为红嫩的时候，被摘下来的时候。。。
就在吞入喉咙之际，也就是它发挥出一生中最灿烂的时刻。

The tea i cant forget is a mint tea-Tetly.
It refresh my tired soul in winter time.
Did anyone know where to buy it? Please tell me...

Everything is nice except

Only...

The bridge was nice...The building was nice...The river was nice...
except....The girl - Me?! of coz not!
Is the vandalism beside me. eHEhe!!

Hotel

Lyon people have a very good parking skill.
All the cars are park extremely near to each other.
Below picture is the hotel i stay. A very comfortable hotel. :)

Lyon's Church

里昂的教堂。

山上一间教堂，拥有令人惊叹的黄金圣母像。
山脚下，受过火神洗礼的墙壁。
手工精雕的浮雕，充份展现了法国人独有的气质。
我好恨，恨没一架更好的相机，来充实这段回忆。

Lunch Time

The first lunch in Lyon.It the first time i drink such a small cup of coffee.

The Journey...

France, Lyon Air Port

I like to travel, so i begin it with my most favorable country - France.
Come and share with me where have you been, what you think and
what you meet.
