Korea girls trip - Autumn edition (November 2024) day 6

This was definitely the highlight of our trip, as we finally got the chance to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and explore the natural beauty outside Seoul. We rented a car for the day, and our first stop was Petit France, about an hour’s drive from the city.

Petit France is a charming village designed to resemble a French town, complete with beautiful scenery. We arrived around 9 AM, and it was so peaceful and quiet that we had the place to ourselves, making it the perfect opportunity to take photos as if we were in the French countryside.











Next, we went to experience the rail bike, a fun activity where we rode a four-seater bike attached to rail tracks. As we cycled along, we enjoyed the vibrant autumn foliage and passed through several themed tunnels, which added to the fun.









We then boarded a scenic train, which took us through more stunning landscapes, offering panoramic views of the colorful autumn leaves. It was a relaxing and picturesque ride.


For lunch, we treated ourselves to a delicious Korean BBQ, which was a bit on the pricier side but well worth it.




Afterward, we continued our journey to Nami Island, a popular tourist spot known for its connection to the drama Winter Sonata. We arrived just in time to see the leaves in full autumn glory, with the maple trees glowing in shades of orange and gold under the sunlight. It was absolutely breathtaking.












In the evening, we returned to Myeongdong for our final dinner and some last-minute shopping before heading back to the hotel.

Birthday Trip to Vietnam - Hanoi (Cafe hopping)

We spent our  last day in Hanoi  doing what we love most— café hopping ! The day started with a local breakfast of  Banh Cuon , a soft steamed rice roll filled with minced pork and mushrooms, quite similar to  chee cheong fun  but with its own Vietnamese twist. Light yet flavorful—perfect to kick off the morning. Next, we visited  Café Giang , the birthplace of the famous  egg coffee . Rich, creamy, and unlike any coffee we've had before—it’s a must-try when in Hanoi. Our last café stop was  The Note Coffee , a cozy and cheerful little spot decorated from floor to ceiling with colorful  sticky notes  left by visitors from all over the world. Their  iced coconut coffee  was refreshing and delicious—definitely a highlight. Since our hotel was located near  Train Street , we couldn’t resist visiting it multiple times— three to be exact!  We even had dinner there one evening, enjoying the thrill of the train zooming by ju...

As for me and my house will serve you Lord

Finally, I’ve joined the boys in serving at the Eucharist. It’s not my time, but His time. Two of the communion ministers were unable to serve on Sunday morning and requested to move to the Saturday sunset Mass. This left the group leader looking for replacements — and he thought of me, knowing that my hubby has been serving at Mass for 10 years. I said “yes” to the invitation, and so began my journey: the commissioning Mass on 3rd August, a Day of Recollection on 9th August, and my very first duty on 10th August. It is such a privilege to offer Jesus, in the Body of Christ, to His sheep. As I looked into the eyes of each parishioner receiving the Body of Christ, I saw so many different expressions. My prayer is that this gift of the Body of Christ will strengthen them in their journey, whatever season of life they are in.
