11-17 June - Holiday at Korea (last 2 days)

This is our first time trying out ice carving...our creation got 3rd prize... yeah!


Our tour package also includes entrance tickets to Fanta-stick show.  It is a modern interpretation of Korean traditional performances combining percussion & string performances, break dancing &  martial arts.  Quite entertaining but as there are some ghost characters in the story line, Kaelyn didn't quite get it so it may be suitable for primary school kids and above.


The rest of the time are shopping and shopping...too busy for photos.

At the departure hall, we kill time by participating in the free activities provided by Korea Traditional Cultural Experience Centre. Kaelyn painted accordingly to the sample and she gets to bring home her own creations.  Visitors get to choose other art and crafts too.  Depending on timing, visitors also get to immerse into other cultural performances.



And we were in time to catch one of the traditional performances/walk-about.  It displays the cultural ceremony and also the King and its entourage's symbolic tour.

We bid Korea farewell with a little regret.. only if mummy has a little bit more time in Korea, I'll definitely try out a Korean hair perm...
