    I’m sorry to hear about your camera.

    I really enjoy your posts about Korea, I think I’d like to go there -and hopefully soon! Do you have any recommendations on places to see?

      Hi Paula. I’m sure you’ll like Korea. Other than Seoul, You must visit Jeju island!! It’s beautiful especially in spring. Canola flowers field! I haven’t visited that many places to be able to give you any good suggestions coz’ I always end up spending too much time in Seoul just wandering around. Sorry..

        Thank you very much! I really want to go back to Japan, but there are so many other places to visit and Seoul looks amazing : )

          I’ve been going to Korea so often that my Korean friend said that I look like someone who is living there rather than a tourist. lol

    very nice photos. thanks for sharing! Instagram is great – I really love the app… I don’t really need to carry around a big camera for snapshots anymore or times where carrying a large camera is inconvenient.

    Also, thanks for sharing the name of the Kenari! I used it to label a photo in my post about Korean cherry blossoms @ http://www.petertsaiphotography.com/blog/2012/05/06/cherry-blossom-festival-beautiful-flowers-in-jinhae-korea/

    Also, nice Instagram feed. My user name is supertsai

      Hi supertsai! Thanks for sharing your photos! I’m so envy that you went to Jinhae Cherry Blossom festival! I so wanted to go but my timing was not good enough… so I decided to skip after all…

    is this from your recent trip? u know I flew to NY with Korean Air, I was so tempted to eat at Incheon airport while waiting for my plane – i was really craving Korean food! Unfortunately, I don’t have much time to do that *booo*

    • sleepwalkingintokyo said, on May 8, 2012 at 10:51 pm

      Pat!!! yes. These are from my recent trip! Oh! I didn’t know you flew with Korean Air!? How was their inflight food? You should have spend at least 1 night in Incheon so you can feast out on all the yummy food!!!

      • Pat said, on May 11, 2012 at 2:47 pm
