We arrived in Seoul at about 5 pm local time. There is a 7
hour time difference so it was late morning on our clocks. Once again the mule
packs got into motion. Quite a mission, as it also involved going down
escalators and catching a train!! Morgan
tried the escalator bear feet and poor Luke had to somehow lift her while
balancing/carrying half a dozen bags!!! Then Morgan didn’t want to get off the
train and we had visions of the doors closing, and her and me with Seren, being
carried off to the next station. Probably could not have happened as once we
were out the carriage, the doors closed and then opened on the other side to
allow passengers on the opposite platform to get it! Anyway an anxious moment!
We finally checked through immigration without having to wait in line as Luke
pulled the “where is the special check in for children” place! Once
again Mel handled it all – we even had our temperatures taken to be sure we were
not bearing MERS. Finally we found our luggage and now had to move in stages as
we could not manage it all at one go!! The drivers were waiting for us with two
vehicles which we managed to fit into – me in the back of a smart back car
between Morgan and Seren strapped in their car seats and Mel in the front with
the driver. Luke travelled with the bags. Seoul could not have been more
different from our landing in Kathmandu – very modern, very clean, very
organised, well sign posted in Korean and English and no one hawking and
spitting every few moments!!! There were even flowers – petunias and others
hanging in baskets from the lamp posts.
