Han River in Seoul

It is a happy picture with a bit of feeling of mystery but it still kind of reminds me of the The Scream by Edvard Munch due to to the rendition of the sky.

Seoul to Kuwait via Dubai

By on August 2, 2008 in Korea, Kuwait, travel

Well my bag, the green one made it onto the plain in Dubai for the final let into Kuwait. Then we waited as there was a problem with the air conditioning on the Kuwait Airways plan. An hour and a half late we took off. And the Kuwait to Dubai flight last week there was also a problem on the Kuwait Airways plane that they had to fix, which delayed us an hour and our bags didn’t make the connection to the Emirates flight to Seoul.

Then it is time to fly into Kuwait.

Apparently the last week it has been sunny in Kuwait and it is only today that it is dusty.

Kuwat Airport Termina

We didn’t dock at a gateway, we had to board a bus to the terminal. Same in Dubai, as there is so much construction going on.

Friday, August 01, 2008 6:31:46 PM There are zillions of Coffee Bean & Tea Leafs in Seoul. More than Starbucks. And they are not cheap, costing even a bit more than in Kuwait, if you ever thought that possible. This gizmo vibrates and flashes when the order is ready to tell you to go up to get it.
