Cheonggyecheon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheonggyecheon I walked about half of this, and it was very nice indeed. Would have been nice to see the illuminated displays at night: Apparently you can also walk around 5km from City Hall entirely underground, just one long shopping mall...

Re: Qatar to Canberra Not sure how this relates to the current flights out of ADL?

How many bottles? My very sincere thanks to the executive lounge staff:

All you can do is try. It might give them more of an incentive to try to make it work. Buying points has always credited instantly for me. Also remember that 17,000 points bought now will let you buy a 40,000 points booking later for not too much difference, so you can minimize the risk that...

SYD-BKK-KIX TG J/F for 40,000 LifeMiles + US$89.05. Booked online.

SIN-ADL is available on SQ J for January 15 if you could build something around that.

It was a bit of an exception, because it was one of the few days that an A380 was operating due to some seasonal scheduling changes. Sitting in a very nice suite for 40,000 LifeMiles was indeed nice, but required some good fortune. The suite itself was like a slightly down-market version of an...

Yes, yes, and yes. Just head to the left as you come out. Very nice hotel.

Flight food: JL F on the way over. I actually ended up having three SYD-NRT flights during the same menu cycle, and chose the same things each time. My memory is going, which is part of the reason for writing this now. A delicious duck and fig salad, and a very nicely cooked piece of...

Ryunique continued: The space was beautiful, a kind of half-basement, so you could see what was happening at street level. My waiter, and the sommelier, was an Australian (Tim) who had worked at Rockpool (as had the chef) and elsewhere. Tim was charming throughout, and the chef and pastry...

Ryunique My final restaurant for the trip. The only one of the five not to get a Michelin star, and it had also apparently fallen out of the 'Top 50' list. It was also the only restaurant I went to with empty tables. Ryunique It was also the best experience of my trip, and one of the...

If contemplating a holiday to Seoul, I would highly recommend the Shilla Seoul (hotel) + La Yeon combination, assuming it can be booked. And then I would try to add Jungsik and Ryunique (still to come) on either side.

The presentation was beautiful throughout. I enjoyed everything, but it was not a particularly warm experience. I think I would have enjoyed this meal more if shared with friends. This night's contemplation was basically about one of my sons, and luck. By the mid-1980s I was finishing a...

La Yeon This was where my timing was particularly fortunate. They received three stars from Michelin, and it sounds like it is now very very difficult to get a booking. La Yeon They are located in The Shilla Seoul hotel, and I stayed there for that night. Magnificent hotel. The Amex FHR...

A morning at the war memorial. I then thought I would visit the palace on the way home, but had not allowed for the impact of the demonstrations in the same area. Police buses as far as the eye could see.

I guess you probably wouldn't be able to use an auto kiosk and would need to speak to a CBP officer. https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/general/frequently-asked-questions/about-visas-the-basics.html My old passport has already expired. My visa to travel to the United States is still...

The Chinese embassy is also an attraction for Chinese tourists for some reason I do not fully understand. There are often tour buses at the China Tea Club in North Lyneham, too. Seems a long way to come for a Chinese meal. On a related note, I had lunch at Water's Edge last week and thought...
