Trip Report- Finale

The sick feeling of missing the enjoyable times from the Korea trip, and comfort of being home with my family has finally died down, as the pace at work has picked up again. I really felt misplaced when I first got back. The voices around me, the sights and just everything! But glad that I'm back into routine now.

I have spent a bomb on skin care products at the Face Shop on the 5th day. Picked up 2 coats at Lotte Departmental Store too. Apparently it was the high-end place to go for both international and local designer labels. Again, I have to emphasize how much I adore the cuts of the lovely pieces I have browsed through. Only regret is that my pockets aren't deep enough for me to bring everything home. Ha! We ducked off for Lotte World which was just next door to the mall for more theme park junkie. Lotte World was much smaller than Everland. We did only 3 rides, explored some quaint shops around the ground, picked up some local snacks and tidbits from the supermarket, and more clothes hunting at the nearby shops. It was a fruitful day overall, although I can't say the same for my pockets!

The final day was a brief one. We managed to drop by the president's house for photos and pop in briefly at the museum, marvelling at the collection of interesting gifts received by South Korea from other countries.

I will let the photos for the last two days of the trip do the rest of the talking :)

Presidential House- The dube on rollers is actual a policeman. His shirt reads "Seoul Police" =)

I spent an awesome final day in Singapore, chilling out with my sister. Food, shopping and coffee are prob the girls' fav. Ha!





I can't get tired of saying this- I miss home, my family and my friends. I'm going to try spend more time in Singapore the next time round, to catch up with friends who have been there for me. Even though we may have drifted every now and then with distance and the pressure of work, I can't believe how easy it is to pick up from where we have left. To this, I have to say a big "THANK YOU" for listening to me when I'm down and out =)
