It has been a great vacation here in Seoul. We have been here for a week and will be flying back tomorrow.
Here are some highlights of the first day we had in Seoul starting with our first meal after touch down.
Fried rice on a hot plate. This is the first time I am seeing fried rice served this way. It was rather unusual as fried rice is normally served on a plate.
The room was really huge as we booked a residence instead of a typical hotel room. There was a queen, single and sofa bed for the five of us.
You can guess who immediately made a beeline for the most comfortable bed in the room.
I love the fact that there is a washing machine within the room so that we can wash our own clothes and I don’t need to lug back a week of dirty clothes to wash over the weekend.I can also cook simple meals if the kids do not fancy Korean food. The kids are not that fussy eaters so I didn’t need to touch the stove.
I’ll be uploading more photos over the weekend of our trip. I can’t wait to share with you the fun we had during our time here in Korea.
How was your week?

I love rooms that have a kitchen. The washing machine would be a great feature to have while on vacation.

That looks like the PERFECT vacation! I love that you ended up not having to use the stove, you were on vacation after all.
And I love that Tiger Girl was smart and made a beeline for the most comfortable bed in the room. 
Looking forward to reading and seeing more pics of your trip!

@Shook, I found the hotel via Agoda website. It cost about $1800 for 2 rooms for 6 nights.

Wow, S$150 per night per room. That’s a very good price! Is the hotel location convenient? I always look out for accomodation with kitchenette. Washing machine is a bonus!
