Edinburgh, Scotland 2024 여행기 – Day #1 Grassmarket, Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, Princes Street
오늘은 지난 10월초에 다녀온 에딘버러 여행기 1편으로, 뮌헨에서 아침비행기로 도착해서 다녀봤던 에딘버러 첫날의 모습을 보시겠습니다. 둘째날 일정에는 새벽부터 하루종일 가야하는 하이랜드 투어가 예정되어있어서, 도착 첫날부터 나름 열심히 다녀봤습니다. 여행기 2편에서는 제 여행 스타일과는 잘 맞지 않았던 하이랜드 투어 얘기를 좀 해보기로 할게요.
Moxie와 함께 에딘버러, 같이 돌아보겠습니다.

Moxie의 2024년 겨울, 한국 맛집기행 3편 – 판교 스페셜
2024년말 한국에 한달동안 있으면서 다녀올 수 있었던 곳들을 2024년 겨울 한국맛집기행으로 남기는 중입니다.
체류중에 약 일주일정도를 판교 운중동에 있어야 했는데요. 오늘 보시는 3편에서는 멀리가지않고 그 지역에 있는 여러가지 종류의 음식을 먹어보면서 다녀왔던 곳들을 "판교 스페셜"로 엮어봤습니다.
일부러 외지에서 찾아갈정도의 맛있는 음식도 있기도 했고, 가까우니까 가서 먹었는데 의외로 맛있던 집들이 대부분이예요.
Moxie와 같이 가보겠습니다.

American Express Gold Card – 카드 수령후 Check List
오늘은 제가 제일 좋아하는 카드, Amex Gold Card 얘기를 좀 해볼까 합니다.
작년 7월에 연회비가 $325로 올라가면서 몇가지 업데이트가 있었습니다. 그때 그 내용을 정리한 포스팅을 다들 한번씩 보셨을거예요. 워낙에 인기가 많은 카드라서, 얼마전 10주년 기념 이벤트에서도 All-Time-Best 카드로 여러분들께서 선정을 해주시기도 하셨습니다.

Alaska 마일로 타보는 KE/JL Business – ICN-NGO-NRT-BOS
한국에서 한달을 지내고 돌아온지 얼마되지 않았는데, 올해 5월초에 집안에 경사가 있어서 부지런히 또 한국행 발권을 해 봤습니다. 요즘에 한국에 가느라고 바쁩니다. 저장중이던 포인트는 쑥쑥 나가고 있고요.
이번엔 한국에서 일본 나고야로 들어가서, 교토나 오사카로 이동하고서 머무는곳에서 며칠간 있으면서, 시간이 된다면 Kobe까지 다녀오고, 다시 나고야 출발, 나리타 환승에 보스턴까지.

Amex Platinum Card $200 Hotel Credit – “Fine Hotels + Resorts(FHR)” at Loews Atlanta Hotel
얼마전에 게시판에 Amex Platinum Card $200 FHR credit 연말전에 사용하는것에 대한 질문으로 보다가, 저도 아직 이번엔 사용하지 않았음을 인지하고 부지런히 찾아서 이용해보았습니다. 지난 한국방문에서도 사용할수가 있기는 했었는데 적당한 기회가 없었고요. 연말까지 미루다가 아틀란타로 돌아와서 가격이 아주 좋았던 Loews Atlanta Hotel을 찾고 이 기회에 가봤습니다.
