First Stop: Seoul

So we have arrived at the airport and found a hotspot. :)

The flight was ok, but hardly any chance to get some sleep due to the way the backrests were adjustable. I guess I don't like the upright sleeping position too much. :) Anyway...the airport is a nice place. Besides the pain-in-the-ass security checks because of my camera equipment, of course. But I'm getting used to it again. Well, there's obviously a chance to smuggle some explosives or illegal substance in the body of a digital SLR, I understand that. Doh! First stage at the airport was the Starbucks where we had some rather good coffee (better than what we had on the plane). But the Korean food was great. No Kimchi for us but hey, there was plenty of other unidentifiable, tasty stuff on the tray, so what the heck. So enough to eat and as little sleep as possible to be really, really tired and take a rest in the comfortable relax lounge on the 1st floor. We're both happy to arrive in Kota Kinabalu at night and then head for the Regency Hyatt right away. Yeah, we're spoiled brats, but if you knew the discount we got you would give it a try as well. So 2 nights there until we head out for Kinabalu National Park. Ok, gonna take a nap now. More later.

Cheers, Stefan


Für die deutschen Leser: Wir sind jetzt bei unserem Stop in Seoul angekommen. Nach einem eher schlaflosen Flug mit gutem Essen und Service waren wir kurz bei Starbucks und lungern jetzt in einer höchst bequemen Lounge herum bis dann in ein paar Stunden unser nächster Flug nach Kota Kinabalu in der Provinz Sabah auf Borneo geht. Ankunft nachts so dass wir direkt ins Regency Hyatt Hotel einchecken können, wo wir dann 2 Nächte bleiben, bevor es in den Kinabalu National Park geht. Wir freuen uns trotz der bequemen Liegen hier in Seoul sehr auf's Hotelbett. Mehr später, liebe Grüße nach D!
