hi dasalo,

thks for ur reply... i'm planning to go jeju, seoul n nami... going for 9 days.. dunno if will extend, depend on my dh..

If you are going to Jeju, that will take away at least 2-3days = 6days. Nami island in winter nothing much I think. You just see a row of leafless tree...haha. 그렇죠 ttoi 씨? That would leave you with 5 days.

Here a link which you might want to explore.

The must thing to do are:

1) Eat the Tteokpokki along the streetside. Heard Sinchon has very good Tteokpokki there.

2) Hongdae University - street cafes, art stuffs, street busking, shopping etc

3) Ehwa University (all girls university) - ladies shopping

4) Jjimjilbang (찜질방) – Korean Spas (whole day affair)

5) Myeongdong (Orchard Rd equivalent)

6) Eat their Korean BBQ aka Samgyeopsal 삼겹살 (I usually go to 三金 along Myeongdong and 감자탕 Gamjadang, potato stew with big pork spine ribs (Onedang along Myeongdong too) You can google both for address.

Take a look at the pic at this blog if you don't know what food I'm talking about:

7) Kyobo Book store - largest branch in Seoul is at Gwanghwamun. Gwanghwamun-jum in Seoul, which is located right under the Kyobo Building, situated at Number 1, Jong-ro 1 Street. (Seoul CBD).

Oh yes, there's a rice wine, Makgeolli shop in Myeongdong too.

This site is for drinks/liquor

Just for your info, Myeongdong is a very very long street, just like 女人街 in Hong Kong.

Etc etc....this site tells you lots of things to do.

Still unsure? let me know :evil: :rahrah: :boogie:
Enjoy your trip!

Now I'm getting hungry after seeing all the food. :drool:

Hi,


Saw these down jackets from Uniqlo, they are very light and soft, colours are very beautiful but are they sufficient to keep warm at the ski resort?

Tks

The show is about 11/2hrs. Don't think your dh will be bored because most reviews said it's very interesting.
