A taste of Korea in Autumn (Sept 2010)





























I had a chance to visit Korea for the first time in the beginning of Autumn. Temperature in the morning is around 8 degrees and about 26 degrees during noontime. The trip was an incentive by one of the IT Distributors, MSI-ECS. We were forty in the group, had a chance to meet our competitors in the IT Industry. :) It was indeed a fun and tiring trip because of a very hectic schedule. We admired the tall trees and lake in the Nami Island, enjoyed steak in Seoul Tower Revolving Restaurant,visited the Bear Museum, learned how to make a Kimchi. I was amazed with the beautiful gardens inside the Everland Theme Park but was not able to try the longest roller coaster in the world because of lack of time and of course, I don't have enough courage to ride it.. I especially liked the Four Seasons garden and lost my way or was left behind by my companions in the Rose Garden.. Dajanggum Park is beautiful, I rented the Korean outfit there and had a photo taken with a Korean family. :) We were accommodated in one of the five stars hotel there - JW Marriot Hotel in Seoul.
