Leaving the Netherlands

I left my house around 6:15 am. When I was leaving home, I met Jan. We said goodbye. I was able to take the plane without any problems. It was my first time flying with Etihad Airways, so I was a bit anxious that something might go wrong. However, the airline was very comfortable. Every meal was super delicious, including spicy chicken with rice, Chinese-style chicken with rice, and sweet chicken noodles. The first flight, from Amsterdam to Abu Dhabi, had a spacious seat. On the next flight, I had a window seat, and luckily there was no passenger sitting next to me. The only problem I encountered was that the second flight was delayed for more than an hour due to air traffic congestion. I arrived in Seoul around noon. I took a taxi from Incheon Airport to the hotel that I had reserved. It was a traditional love motel once again. The check-in system was automated, so I had to wait until 3 pm, which was the hotel’s check-in time. Now I am waiting and writing this diary in front of the hotel outside.
