On our last night in Seoul, we became really good friends with the national beverage – sochu.
The next morning, we completely overslept. From the time we woke up to the departing flight we had 2:15. We packed in a frenzy, showered in a hurry and hailed the next best cab to the airport (from northern central Seoul to Incheon the fare was 50.500 Won).
It was also snowing quite heavily at that time. Heavy for the month of April, that is.
We made it to the airport, checked in and exchanged our Korean Won into Japanese Yen and then set off running the rest of the way. We were the last ones to board.
It was a turbulent flight due to strong winds. Our pilot made a successful landing on the second approach. We were fortunate to land as we could see some departing flights being cancelled out of Fukuoka Airport.
We were awaited by our dear friends for an uneventful car ride to Kitakyushu.
Japan looks so much greener than the Korean landscape we have just left behind. We are back in the land of the broccoli mountains.
