Hot hot summer!

Day 2.

Right after having our buffet style breakfast at Ocean Suites, we headed for our morning exercise.

Yay! Let's climb this freaking mountain!



The scenery in Jeju is picturesque. Must visit again!



Me being all confident that we, being young people, should be able to conquer this mountain.

So we climbed and climbed. I was already half giving up when we reached the foot of the mountain. LOL. I know my stamina is very low. But I can't entirely blame it on myself. It's the shoes' fault too!!

Regardless, we didn't give up. We continued walking and began to climb up numerous flights of stairs. It seemed endless, really.

I think this rock looks like a girl's head, from the side. The leaves being the hair and the rocky part is her face.

Anyways, this was where we gave up. Only halfway up the mountain.
DAMN FAIL OKAY. :(

On our way back down, I even saw old aunties and uncles climbing up. Pro!

But I guess it was a good thing that we gave up. Cuz we still had time to go to the other side, with better scenery apparently! HAH.

Sea view :)



My pictures aren't doing this place justice :( The scenery is really much more greenish and sunny-ish than this.

So, after that we went to this place where the drama All In was filmed. Neither of us knew anything about that drama, hence that place meant nothing more than just another scenic site for us to take pictures.

Taken in the bus, on our way to the filming site. The water in Jeju is really clear!





And we arrived.



Taken from Chia Li's.

I didn't bother to take pics of the site. Just a place with houses and a normal looking church. Went to the cliff area to take pics instead :) As you can see, the rocks in Jeju are black in colour. It's because the island was once formed due to volcanic eruptions.

I'm so informative right LOL :D

If you attempt to take a piece of those rocks back, you'd be caught and fined. LOL. Apparently the machine, the thing that people have to walk through during the bag scanning, can detect if you have Jeju rocks with you LOL.

More black rocks!



Yeah, censored face. I looked damn yong sui.

See the people at the shore? Chia Li and I wanted to go there too. We were walking halfway and I saw tiny lil things moving around the rocks. They looked like freaking leeches! Not sure if they really were leeches though, but just looking at so many things crawling around the rocks was enough to make me run back. -_-

Next stop, Tangerine Farm! And also known as the place where they very very very enthusiastically sold orange flavoured chocolates. Buy 5 free 1 some more.

Fake tangerines, real tree.

Real tangerine tree with no fruits.

It's not the season yet so there aren't any fruits. I think the lady boss there hung fake tangerines for picture-taking purposes =.= lame.

Lunch! Pork and lettuce.. Okay, honestly I don't know if those are lettuce or cabbage leaves. Or they may both be mixed together -_-

After that we went to the folk village, where everything is ancient. As in, really really old. Didn't take pictures either cuz I was too lazy.

Then we went for horse riding! Obviously I can't take pics right. I was on a horse. Honestly I felt bad for the horses lol. Mine was a female. A mother, to be exact. Her little pony kept on following us! So cute :D

Riding on a horse seriously hurt my ass. Especially when it started to gallop. Wonder if it'd be more painful for guys LOL.

Nextttt, we went to the seaside to take pictures of/with a rock that supposedly looks like a dragon head. It didn't look like anything to me >_> don't know if it's my lack of imagination or what. But it really just looked like... a piece of rock.

Like dragon meh?

We were already bored after stoning there for 2 minutes max. So we went to the shops area and snacked.

Sausage covered in a THICK layer of flour. It was nice though :)

They brought us to the Mysterious Road before dinner. The tour guide told us that on the stretch of road, the bus would roll uphill, with the engine turned off. I was like so freaking amazed by that story and really wanted to experiment (eg see water rolling upwards). I thought the road would be like a 30 degree slope, at least.

Turned out to be a freaking almost-flat road =.= it looked super flat okay. Not even uphill or downhill. NO HILL even. The tour guide was like "You see how that side of the road is higher right? Right right?" =.= it looked kinda flat to me though.

With a road that's almost flat, of course it's easy for optical illusions to happen lah. Potong.

So, again, no pictures cuz it didn't amaze me enough.

Dinner.



Right outside the restaurant was a beach!

Nanta show. It's similar to Stomp.

It was an enjoyable show. :) Full of comedy too. I especially love how the casts interact with the audience.

Day 3.

Back to Seoul. Have to ride on the plane again. After this trip, I started to have an immense fear of plane rides. Hate turbulence!! :(

Sadly our flight kena delayed because of the fog in Jeju. So we bummed around the airport for around 2 hours I think. As time was wasted, we had to decide to either tapao lunch and have it on the bus, or sacrifice at least an hour of our time in Yongin Everland.

Being sporting visitors, everyone agreed to having lunch in the bus! :) Luckily no one in our group was like the rich tai tai kind, who complains about everything. Everyone was friendly and nice. :)

Everland's entrance. White haired guy dress in white was the tour guide.

First was some 4D show thingy. I think Korea's 4D stuff are mehhhh lol. Universal Studios' is better lol.

Then we went to.. the Safari! It was a really sunny day and thank God for air conditioned safari bus. Amazingly the bus didn't stink at all. Massive improvement! 10 years ago, the bus didn't even have glass windows, only bars. Like as if you were the animal instead. -_-

As it was mating season, the animals were super horny. LOL.

The horny lion got up as it saw our bus approaching.



*cough*foreplay*cough*



The real deal.



This white tiger got up and started to model for us LOL. Vain or what!



Husband: Lion. Wife: Tiger.



Offspring: Liger.



Underage bears!! D:

Either they're young adults (LOL) or their size is really that small.

Went to the Rose Garden next! Don't know why it's called rose. No rose also.
Nevertheless, it's a beautiful garden! :)

See the roller coaster tracks behind? It's this freaking crazy coaster ride that drops from a super high point. Chia Li had the guts to go for that. Not me though .__.









Flowers, flowers, and more flowers.

After that Chia Li, and some of the youngsters in our group went for the roller coaster. I was her bag caretaker LOL.

This ride.. it just spins and spins and spins. We call it the washing machine. Picture taken from Ee Cheng.

We were bumming around after buying souvenirs there, and decided to just sit and wait for time to pass. This Korean couple came up to us and asked us to help them take a polaroid shot. As gratitude, they gave us one too :)

:D



The place where we were sitting at.

It was NOT even windy that day and I had my scarf wrapped around me like some idiot. Not because I was vain or whatever okay. I was eating freaking chocolate ice cream -_- it melted and dripped so quickly I didn't even notice. Messy eater. Damn unglam. :(

Dinner! Very delicious herbal chicken soup :) ya, must emphasize.

And our hotel was freaking creepy. Pale green bedsheets, with florescent lights. HATE florescent lights in hotels. :( Makes things 10000000 times creepier. Not only that, the hotel was in such a remote place. No shop lots beside it.. Nothing.

It's called Hotel Inter-Burgo. No pics because the Googled images look so much nicer than the real thing -.-

K. Blog next time!
