KoReA Trip ~Day Four to Five~

Day Four
We took an early flight today back to Gimpo Airport.
Oh lunch of the day is Korean Bibimbap. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibimbap]
*I dun quite remember wat we had for the other meals.. coz no photo.. haha.. But there’s always kimchi on the table for every single meal! Nonetheless I am unable to get used to the taste after so many days. Some of them say that the more u eat the nicer it taste. Doesn’t work for me, but I admit I hafen been trying it everytime. =P

Next stop is Nami Island at Chuncheon!
It’s another filming location for winter sonata.
This island is full of colorful autumn trees! It’s a very pretty sight in autumn. Used to be a private island where nobody goes. But every since the filming then it became v popular and now collects $$ per entry.
*Enjoying ice-cream in the cool nice weather at Nami Island, amidst rows of 银杏树… Romantic
*Not forgetting to collect some maple leaves for keepsake. *grin*
I’m a notty girl.. coz I xxxxx from the trees.. Oops.. Shhhh…

*Prettiest tree spotted on the island. It has 3 colors! Green yellow and red.. All on one tree!
*EeLing said this 背影 pic is the nicest one she took.. Wahaha.. Coz its me mah.. =P
*As the autumn leaves fall to the ground… the ground becomes like this…
Dinner is at this Korean BBQ shop along Myongdong shopping street.
*And EeLing took the chance to take photo wif our 帅哥 photographer.. aka cook and porter...
We had a long bus ride tonite to Yongpyong Dragon Valley Ski Resort, and wow! Its really cold here. Reached –1 degrees when we arrived. And the resort said that they’ll be spraying man-made snow at the skiing ground. We went out to take a look at nite.. but nth much coz they juz started spraying.. Looks like its gonna take a long time~ So we went back to slp…

Day Five
Cold cold temperature in the morning.. and lazy me din bring enuff clothes… But lucky there’s Milo.. so nice she lend me one thick one.. so that I dun freeze.. =)
So out we go to play in the ‘snow’… Can’t ski though coz snow all melting le… Ah~ when will I see real snow falling from the sky? Wanna make a snow angel in real thick fluffy snow! Next trip? *Make a Wish*
*Inscribed my name on the frozen board
We took a 20 mins cable car ride to the top of Yongpyong resort. Wah even colder here. Can see REAL frost on the ground! (yay!) And nice view too~
*Took photo wif our tour guide
*Leaving paw prints behind

Leaving Yongpyong, we head for Mt Sorak National Park. Lots of colorful trees everywhere at the foot of the mountain.
*We love ice-cream~
We ascend the peak with a 5min cable car ride. Then proceed up twists and turns of steps.. to reach the breathtaking peak! Which is the Kwon Kum Seong Fortress.

*It’s a very steep cliff! Dun dare go too near.. ha..
*Ee Ling enjoying herself
Lots of Koreans will proceed to climb up the peak, where the flag is.. But for us, its better not to 殃及池鱼.. in case we go tumbling down…
We proceed to Hanwah Waterpia resort. After checking in, we went to have fun the Waterpia, an indoor water theme park. Oh they have natural hot spring water here! But no photos to show.. Coz for the indoor hot spring, you’ll supposed to go in naked. Else ppl will chase u out!~ Quite an experience to see everyone naked walking around like nobody’s business.. Haha.. The actual theme park have those water slides and wave pools, for the families and kids to enjoy. We missed out on the outdoor hot spring coz the guide din say there was and its so cold that we din venture outside.
