We woke up at 6:00AM to a bright and clear day. Thank goodness! There was a worry of more Black Rain and airplane cancellations.
Our bags were out the door by 9:45.
We grabbed a Starbucks coffee so that we could get the free wifi and met up with the rest of the group for breakfast.
That's when we learned that McDonald's had free wifi too!
Our flight took off for Incheon on schedule and we went to the Korea Traditional Cultural Experience Center as we promised at the start of our trip. We got to decorate little mirrors with mother of pearl. Only foreigners are allowed to do this.
There was free wifi at the airport so we were happy to see that my brother would be able to pick us up at Honolulu International Airport when we got back home.
We ate bi bim bop on the flight over from Hong Kong to Incheon.
We had another bi bim bop on the flight from Incheon to Hawaii.
The newspaper on board the flight headlined the Black Rain. What a surprise! We had no idea it was that serious!
It was wonderful to be home again. We passed through immigration without a problem and said good bye to our tour mates while promising to see each other in another month or two. It was great to see my brother's smiling face greeting us at the airport. We went home to reassure mom that we'd happily survived the trip with many wonderful memories.
