The Lens-Artists Challenge #173: Interesting Architecture

I have been thinking about this theme since I first read it way too early in the morning to have many cohesive thoughts. Here is a random mish mash of constructions with interesting architecture.

I’ve opted for a slideshow for a change. Enjoy your travels and hope that there are interesting architectural surprises along the way

I was there a couple of times

Debbie’s Alphabet Geography Photo Challenge: Countries that end in A

Another one where i am going to not use Australia. Instead, lets go to South Korea. Of course the bus will get you to the hotel.

The Ragtag Daily Prompt Tuesday: Spruiker

On day walking around the less touristy places in Seoul, we headed down a street where a lot of people were going so we tagged along. It wasn’t long before we came across this huge shopping centre. Outside was a spruiker trying to get people inside and to the particular store he was advertising.

He was quite comical and whatever he said to the passing shoppers made them smile or laugh.

I didn’t realise that this was an Australian word. It is often more likely to be used in carnivals where they try and get you to go into their particular tent or sideshow. Sometimes these shows are not exactly what the spruiker shouts to the crowd.

Anyway back to South Korea

The Ragtag Daily Prompt Thursday: Antimacassar

I was thinking about this prompt wondering if I could contribute. Then I started to read others contributions and I remembered my first overseas holiday to Europe in 2009. I flew with Korean Air, which had great service and polite and friendly flight attendants. Part of the trip was over night in Seoul in a really good hotel.

We were picked up from the airport and transported to the hotel in a bus and what a bus it was. I won’t describe it and let the photo tell the story.

Let’s go over there

The Lens-Artist Photo Challenge #140: A Change of Scenery

As we are travelling a bit, let’s take some music with us. This is an Aussie band called Fraternity. You may recognised the singer playing the recorder. It’s Bon Scott, the lead singer of ACDC when they first started out, before his time in ACDC.
