We made it!

Wow that was a long journey! We've all made it safe and sound to our hostel in Hongdae, in the centre of Seoul, after an 11 hour flight!



Our time at Heathrow was made a little more exciting by the many selfies taken with.... David Haye! Thought it would be rude not to join in too... Not every day you meet a famous boxer!



The girls had their first experience of South Korean dining this evening. We all had to remove our shoes on entering the restaurant and sat on the floor with low tables. We ate Kimchee, the national culinary treasure of fermented cabbage with spices (it didn't quite go down a storm but they all tried it!) followed by noodles with seafood. We all need to work on our chopstick technique!



Signing off for tonight as jet lag is taking hold. Looking forward to a day in Gangnam tomorrow for a spot of sight seeing and shopping.
