Everybody loves spam?
Spam in very expensive in Korea. I don't really understand why. It is even given as gifts for national holidays. This pack of spam is around £25!!!

Anmyeon-do
We went to Anmyeondo Island over the weekend. It was pretty deserted due to the cold weather but it was still worth a visit. We explored a few places and I had to wear about five layers of jackets and a blanket around me! The beaches were extremely big and the ocean looked gorgeous. We both definitely want to come back when it is warmer.

Mt. Bukhansan
As the horrible cold winter was coming to the end and the temperature was increasing slightly David and I decided we would walk up Bukhansan mountain. Mt. Bukhansan is situated in the northern part of Seoul. We chose to walk a peak that would take two hours. It was nice to be able to walk outside without freezing to death! Although as we walked further up the mountain the more snow we came into contact with. This was not good as David and I were wearing trainers. We were slipping and sliding all over the place! We got a few disapproving looks and "tut tuts" from the over prepared Korean hikers. Overall I enjoyed our mini hike. The views from the top were spectacular!

Holiday blues :(
Our holidays ended around a week ago and we are back to our 'normal' routine. BOOOOOO...we wish we were back in India enjoying the amazing warm weather! It's okay, we have been keeping ourselves busy by eating out and going shopping. (Even though we said we wouldn't!) We went to a Korean War Museums in Seoul and we also have been to the cinema. We watched Alice in Wonderland in 3D. It was pretty awesome! Next weekend we are planning on heading to COEX. This is the largest underground shopping mall in Asia. I cannot believe I have not been there yet!
