After they head home, i will have to do cleaning again then pack my luggage..

13th Feb
washing of the bedsheets and other laundry so that when i'm back, i can concentrate of other stuffs. mum will come over my place to take care while i'm away..

then evening to mum's place for reunion dinner..

then head to in-laws place to leave our car there and bro-in-law will drive us to airport.

From 14th to 19th Feb..Seoul here I come!

Day 1,
Arrive at Incheon Airport at 7.05am (Flight SQ 602)
Check in hotel (Western Co-op Residence / 웨스턴 프리미어 코업)
-Gyeongbokgung Palace
-Namsangol Hanok Village
-N Seoul Tower (Teddy Bear Museum) and Namsam cable car (go in the evening)

Day 2
-Insadon
-MyeongDong
-Namdaemum

Day 3
-Seoul-Yeoju Premium Outlets
-Jjim-jil-bang

Day 4
-Everland
-Dongdaemum

Day 5
- Deoksugung Palace
- COEX
- Bongeunsa Temple
- 63 CITY BUILDING & Hangang River

Day 6
- Last min shopping at Dongdaemm
- Check out hotel and leave to Incheon airport at 1630.
- Flight SQ15 at 1940

the first two days is CNY and most shops are closed. We can only head to those cutural and sight-seeing places which means no shopping ;(

but i look forward to the rest esp the factory outlet shopping. This outlet is at the outskirt of Seoul and we need to travel 2 hours if he drove us there or we take a bus there (abt 4 hrs). I pray hard that he will drive us there and bring us to Jjim-jil-bang for traditional Korean sauna.

I believe somehow this plan will have changes if he decide to bring his family to join me for Everland but then again I am worried about the crowd during the holidays!

20th Feb & 21st Feb
again, my weekly cleaning. Unpacking of stuffs and send those clothings to laundry shop..plus visiting to hubby's relatives place, then my relatives..

This is why i hate to trael during CNY but no choice otherwise the rest of the year hubby can't take leave..

HAPPY CNY pals!

all ready for CNK aka holiday

After the very last post, i was practically busy everyday, staying up late at work.
Yah, the past 2 weeks, i don't get to see sunset. This is how my work is driving me crazy!

The doctor got back to me and i am perfectly fine.

This year is my 1st yr to celebrate CNY at my own place but unfortunately i have plans for holidays - a treat for me and hubby for working so hard in 2009 and to put down all unhappy stuffs.

I think i really made a good housewife because:
- though in laws and parents kept saying my house is new, isn't much to clean, i started spring cleaning last week
- clean the windows (all by myself) - they are now shiny w minimal dust (because dust accumulate everyday)
- clean all the lights with hubby help to remove the casing for me

And since we are departing on CNY eve, we will have reunion dinner with in-laws family on Fri, steamboat at our place, follow by dinner with my family on the eve before we head to airport. I just can't wait for next week to come soon!

Winter clothings were all packed in 2 luggage and we are bringing 2 BIG LUGGAGES and 1 small luggage plus a handheld BIG bag. So you can expect the loot that i want to bring back from KOREA?
