Take off! Woke up at 4.30am. Steven drove us to Brisbane Airport where we boarded KE814 to Incheon. We were allocated window seats and had a great view of Brisbane and all the way up the coast...saw Point Cartwright and Mooloolaba really well.
Can't speak highly enough of Korean Air...great service including socks, masks, toothpaste and brushes, hot towels, cold towels, orange juice and water whenever you wanted it, great food, movies, etc.
Crossed the equator - Ian checked the loo to see which way the water went down the washbasin - straight down!
On arrival at Incheon big queues for immigration but straight through Customs. Plush bus trip to Hyatt hotel (compliments of Korean Air) for the night.
Booked into great room with king sized bed. Dumped bags and went straight out to explore. Huge storm with winds that nealy blew us off the footpath. 14 degrees celsius felt like 5. Nothing much to see in immediate vicinity and wind and rain a bit much so retreated to the nearest bar. Missed dinner as too much food consumed during the flight. Met Roger from Dallas. Chatted up the barman who supplied maps and info on good Korean food to try when we come back in July. He also supplied me with a free cocktail!
