Korea Fall 2019 - Part 2 Garden of Morning Calm

Having left Nami Island a little later than scheduled, we loaded back into the car and went to Garden of Morning Calm. To be honest I've never heard of this garden before and had decided to visit because it was a recommended course from Klook with the car rental. Now that I've seen it myself, I can confidently recommend visiting this site!  

It was late afternoon when we arrived so our time in the garden was limited. Walking around in the garden was a wonderful experience. It wasn't too crowded, the weather was perfect, and there were a lot of opportunities to take pictures. The garden was divided into several sections and unfortunately we didn't have enough time to explore all of the vast garden.




Miss Kiki was right in her element there. She seems to prefer gardens than theme parks even though she enjoys either one. She walked around happily with huge curiosity, Sometimes she stopped to look at the plants, other times it was for insects and such. Surprisingly they didn't have a lot of mosquitoes there.

Miss Kiki said that this tree is special. I don't remember why though..., sorry! I'll have to ask her again next time.



Near said tree stood a flowering tree with a bench underneath. There was an instruction on how to take pictures like those K-drama covers :D 


















We finished the day with a BBQ dinner in Myeongdong area. Did you know that beef is a lot more expensive than pork in Korea?



Our driver dropped us off at Myeongdong and we took the subway back to our hotel. That was our first full day in South Korea! Please stay tuned for the next posts...

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Japan Trip June 2016 - Part 9 - Osaka

It was a super hot and bright morning and we were all packed and ready to ride the train to Osaka. We had no excuse to take a taxi so we walked to Kyoto Station... It was a rather short ride considering we moved cities, it was still around noon when we arrived at Osaka Station. The AirBnb property I had booked looked close to the station on the map, but it was further than expected. We were so sweaty by the time we got there, mostly because of our backpacks and our suitcases! I was very impressed Miss Kiki carried her backpack without complaints even though it was pretty stuffed by then. Taken from Osaka Station We had to change our wet and sticky clothes upon arrival, and after a bit of rest we decided to head out. First to Tenjimbashisuji Shopping Street listed on a tourist guide just over 1 km away. It was so hot and sunny I regretted not taking a hat for any of us. I was lucky I hadn't forgotten to bring my sunglasses. When we got there, we real...
