Korea Trip - 23 Dec

Sry but this post will be v.long, thr's around 100 pics cos of the places we visited. NICE VIEWS! (:
after morning call, prepared & had breakfast. Another buffet breakfast!
Something interesting : look at their vitagen packaging ! (:
This place is rather famous for their sunrise ! so we all waited. 
They even provide you with the time for the sunrise so you can wake up in time to catch it ! (;
Also, the koreans make a wish upon the 1st sunrise of the year ! 
1st stop: The Sinheungsa (Temple).
Super nice view. Everywhere looks so nice. & i love their trees ! got a very antique feeling huhs~
But the wind is very strong & very cold. I swear my hands & feet were numbed.
So i had to wear a cap, which was quite big & the hoodie on my jacket. It covered my eyes.
Therefore, you can see some pics without my eyes XP

Look at this cute little boy !
There's another cute little girl !
We are going to take a cable car up !
Here comes our cable car !
After we reach the top, we still have to take a long walk. 
The scenery was fantastic ! but i couldnt stop to take a pic. 
Cos we are all q-ing to get up. Like ants. XP
So only managed to take a few pics after i finally reach the top of the top !
Taking the cable car down...
Look at the height !
We bought a sweet corn thinking that it will be hot & will warm us up.
But it disappointed us. ): Not hot, but normal temperature. 
It doesn't taste like our sweet corn. It tastes like... 
Its chewy, sticky, not sweet with no much sweet corn taste ! 
Tastes rather weird, but as you chew you will find it addictive XP But mouth v.tired lahs. 
LUNCH TIME !
Okays, Bi-Bim-Bab ! i rmb-ed having this in the plane XP
It was awful.
But this time, i learnt how to eat it the right way !
Add as chili paste & mix ! TADAH !
Okays, i wouldn't say it tastes nice. But still alright. Much better than the 1 i had in the plane ! XP
Took some pics after lunch.
Our tour mate gave us this to try. Its walnut kuay i think. 
There's red bean paste inside & you can actually find a WHOLE walnut inside !
2nd stop : Cheongwadae Sarangchae (Exhibition & Museum) 
Inside.
Okays, i took this inside the toilet. 
When i first saw it, i thought it meant the toilet button is on your butt. XP
Quite funny ((:
Played with this ! 
Take a pic with their machine, choose background & write on it ! 
Then.. send it out through email ! XP How sweet, of cos i sent it to baobao ! 
Seems like neoprint right. But free ! XP
After that, a short distance walk.
This is their traffic police !
Reached our 3rd stop of the day : Gyeongbokgung Palace.
LOOK AT THEIR TREES.
Or is it my credit (for taking such nice pic) ? XP
Super duper cold ! Nose turned red. But was enjoying myself ! 
Next was to the airport, took a place to JeJu Island ! 
Had their Udon ! Damn nice, buy it if you see this in Spore ! Its spicy & the udon tastes nice ! (:
Another snack offered to us by another tour mate.
Red bean paste inside again.
Reached Jeju ! 
OUR DINNER.
Something different !
Nice fried rice.
Abalone, prawns & etc...
The abalones were still moving !
Baked cheese corn. OMG I LOVE THIS. 
NICE ! TRY MAKING IT ! XP 
The cheese tastes like the pizza hut's pizza's cheese. (:
Okays, the special moment of the day.
Our tour mates tried eating the live Octopus !
Its freaking raw. So this is what you do...
Bite onto 1 of the legs, the chief will cut it off & the leg will suck on your tongue ! 
So chew properly then swallow kays. 
But i find it cruel  ):
Our hotel of the day, Grand Hotel.
Took a walk out for supper !
My supper ! there's rice cake, tao key type, egg etc.
But i like the rice cake the most. Very CHEWY ! REALLY ! 
But its spicy uhs. maybe it depends on the vendor. (: 
Chat with baobao everyday via wifi from different places. 
We send emails to each other via iphone (:
Okays, end my long long post !
