Day 3 - Back to Seoul for Everland

17th Nov,


It's my 2nd day in Jeju and it's also the last one. Although we had to wake up at the same time AGAIN, but it wasn't that much of a torture cause I didn't have any stomachache hiphip hooray ~


Didn't had contact lense on my eyes cause we had to fly back to Seoul, might as well put at Seoul so that the transparent little circular specs of mine won't be suffocating my eyes for 12 hours.

Had breakfast at 7am and we had to leave at 7.40am with all luggages at the lobby. ME LOVE THIS CEREAL THING, WHEN IT'S SOAKED IN MILK FOR 5 SECONDS, IT'S SO NICE. BUT OVER SOAKED..... NOT SO NICE.



There's always this corner that offers KIMCHI and almost all of us avoided that corner and most of them found at that corner were mostly koreans. Thumbs up for eating kimchi everyday and STILL EATING KIMCHI ON THEIR HOLIDAYS.
It was an early flight back to Gimpo, like 8.40am or something. So we left the hotel lobby at around 7.40am and reached the airport at 8am.



Although it was just an hour flight, but everyone of us went to the toilet cause EVERYONE WANTED TO HAVE A PEACEFUL 1 HOUR NAP ON THE PLANE AHAHAHA

Especially Angela, she told us that she trained her fall-asleep-easily-when-travelling skill when she travels to Jurong from Bedok everyday. Ahah everytime when we're on the bus and XiaoLi tell us the ride is more than 20minute, we will always take a short nap.

I'll lean at the window, look at the korean signboards, orange leaves, then slowly close my eyes. I SO MISS THAT FEELING.



SO COOL, A TRANSPARENT ''GATE CONNECTOR'' !


The plane is like always FULL and most of the passengers are all koreans. So cool, have to fly within their own country.


I WANT TO JUMP ON THE CLOUDS, IT'S SO PUFFY!!!!!!!!!!
HI THERE, AEROPLANE
CAN I IMAGINE YOU AS A FUCKING SHOOTING STAR?





I CAN'T, SADZ.


Soaring through the clouds~

 Took like only a 15minute nap cause I was busy snapping pictures and drinking a cup of orange juice. Arrived at Gimpo airport and got our luggages and by the time we stepped out to the cold air again, it was around 10am. 


AND WHEN WE WERE ABOUT TO CROSS THE ROAD, I SAW FROM AFAR, A BUS, WITH A PICTURE OF 5 PEOPLE. I KNEW WHAT IT WAS CAUSE I SAW THE SAME BUS AT INCHEON AIRPORT BUT I DIDN'T HAVE MY CAMERA WITH ME AND THE BUS WENT PASS ME TOO FAST.


SO THIS TIME, I DIGGED MY CAMERA OUT, ZOOMED, AND THEN I GOT IT. WOOOOOOHOOOOO.

AHAHA JUST NICE SOMEMORE !




Walking towards our bus, goodbye Gimpo airport !
 Uncle, Auntie Miaolin and Yanping behind !


Sat in the bus for like 10minutes before we set off for Everland. I was kinda excited cause it's been so long since I went to a themepark and I'm just so happy cause there's finally a decent roller coaster to ride and not the crack-my-neck type of roller coasters in genting!!!!


The themepark's located @ the outskirts so the bus ride took us about 1 hour 30minutes. 

I wanted to go Lotte World more......... somemore it's located in the city too.......................
but no choice :(  ARGH I WANT F&E IF I EVER HAVE A CHANCE TO GO BACK THERE AGAIN.


I didn't take a nap cause I was so excited but I only felt sleepy when we were reaching in like 10minutes time. The road there was somewhat like Genting, somewhere in the mountains type.


So secretive somemore ! There's this mega large bus carpark there and we had to take their shuttle bus to Everland ! It was quite cold there cause it's near the mountains and I had no gloves with me. Mum wanted to give me hers but I didn't want it cause it'll so inconvenient to have a pair of gloves on all the time. AND IT'S ME WHO LOST MY OWN GLOVES, MUST BE RESPONSIBLEKID_1994.



Took us 5minute to reach Everland and the shuttle bus was so squeezy with kids and us. Welcomed by a lady dressed in Everland's uniform or something, they will swing their hands like the ''don't have'' sign and say something like '' panja panja '', shining and shimmering ????


Didn't have to queue and we entered Everland !!!!!!!
With Leo taking our pictures one by one. While the others are gathered around XiaoLi for a briefing, I was busy putting my contact lense with no mirror. Damn fail, the contact lense just won't stay and stick on my eyes. So got no choice, had to wear specs all the way until we get to find a toilet.


XiaoLi told us his number and said that if any of us are lost or can't find their way back to the entrance, we can call his number blablabla. After that, he led us to take this (ski lift) ! We passed by a roller coaster but it didn't seemed to be operating, sad.

Last hope pinned on T Express ! On the way down to where T Express is weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 the 4 Old Heroes !





Walked to this Wild Forest or something like that to see animals. Not excited at all cause my whole mind was just T Express.

We had to walk a long indoor route and finally reached the bus stop. Took the first seats of the bus on the left ! The bus will stop and let us tourists take pictures of the animals, and this is Liger ! So cool, tiger + lion gives a Liger ^^


Praying bear !
The distance was so close ! 
Awww Mr Bear we're just separated by a sheet of glass you know!!!


Other animals include giraffes, lions, tigers, elephants, and owls which I didn't get to snap a picture of it cause the cages were at the right side :(

After the animals' ride, we went on a free and easy tour around Everland, had like 4 or 5 hours for us to explore but there wasn't lunch provided for us. I went to the toilet first to put on contact lense. It managed to stick on to my eyes after trying for like 8 times. Damn pek cek. It wasn't comfortable at all because everytime I blink, it will go blur then finally clear again, weather too dry ? Don't knowwwwwwwwwwww.


The first thing we did was to queue for T Express, the entrance to the ride looked so empty yet it states a 20minute queue time. But 20minutes is definitely worth the ride!!!!!!! I can queue 1 hour (fucking regret, got sunburnt) for a stupid corkscrew ride in genting, what is 20minutes !?


The 78degree drop !
 This was taken after I had the ride and I didn't realise how steep 78degree can be.
 .
.
.
.


While queuing for T Express, sat with the malaysian couple guy cause his wife didn't dare to play.
 Auntie miaolin and uncle infront of us !
THEY'RE SO BRAVE. SERIOUSLY. ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T HESITATE TO QUEUE FOR THE RIDE BUT LOOKING AT THE DROP STILL SCARES ME ABIT.



When we're on top of it and we can see the drop just right beside us on our right side, that is the most scary part cause there's no way to regret and all you can do to escape from the coaster is to just go down the fucking drop, so it's too late to regret. I can't even spot people cause it was so high and I am high myself, trying to keep calm yet shivering and keeping myself from screaming.

Then the drop came. Fuckyes scary. It's like a never-ending feeling :/ The rest of the drops were nothing much but they kept scaring us by increasing the speed when we're about to drop so everyone screamed. Who don't scream in a roller coaster ride ?????? Not for the fear but the fun !


After the ride, I was kinda dizzy. Walked out from a souvenir store and saw mum and the malaysian couple's wife holding onto coffee cups. Took a sip and stayed quiet cause I didn't want my mum to know that I'm feeling dizzy -.-''


But she found out after all, maybe the word dizzy was just printed on my face zzz. It's amazing though, like how she always know what I'm thinking. :')



Went to a cafeteria that XiaoLi told us to lunch at cause it's like a mini canteen which provide different food and not just kimchi kimchi and kimchi.


Managed to find seats so I sat there while mum went to buy our lunch and I was still like staring into space with my dazed mode, trying to keep myself from being dizzy cause it was just my first ride !!!! Took out my earpiece and listened to songs that will probably retrieve my soul back. CAN'T NOBODY HOLD US DOWN ~


Didn't feel better, the udon wasn't so nice cause of the miso soup, me don't like miso soup :( BUT THE TEMPURA'S NICE, SHIOKSHIOKSHIOK. Auntie miaolin and uncle couldn't find where we were sitting so they sat at I don't know where but we managed to meet each other after that !

Went to the toilet before stepping out to the cool breeze again. INSTANTLY FELT BETTER WHEN I FELT THE COOL AIR. 



Asked for directions to the Rose Garden and Four Seaon Garden and the everland guy replied us in half english and half korean so we didn't understand. After that he said something like turn lab wokie straight so we figured out it's turn left and then walk straight.




No flowers there. AT ALL. We're not in the right season for the blooming of flowers T.T Still, we managed to take quite a lot of pics here hehehe.


POSEIDON'S MY DAD.
PERCY'S MY BROTHER.



.........................





Decided to walk up the hill instead of taking the ski lift cause we couldn't find it anyway and I spotted a gigantic Pirate Ship at the top of the hill !!!!!!!! 


Regretted not trying this :/


and this too !
When we're on the bus travelling'around Seoul streets, I've spotted like 2 of these houses which both have a slide like that at the side. SO COOL. AND THE SLIDE'S LIKE JUST 3 METRE AWAY FROM THE STREETS.

didn't manage to take a picture of those houses :(


REGRETTED NOT TRYING THIS TOO.
LOG RIDE OMGZZZZ. T.T CONFIRM COLD X 10.

Found our way to have a good view of the Pirate Ship but it's still so far-looking and it's definitely at the top of the hill or something. Anyway we had a ride at a 3metre drop thingy, no thrill kind HAHA even auntie miaolin and uncle couldn't stand it.

 Mum was waiting for us at a fountain so we walked back to her and continued to ask for our directions towards the Pirate Ship.
Finally reached a travelator and we continued to go up and finally reached like the top after 3 or 4 travelators.

Uncle and mum hiding behind !



Followed the signboard and walked to our left <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< towards Pirate Ship. Passed by the spinner cups ride, hate those kinda rides, just spoils the day by making you dizzy for the rest of the day. Finally reached the Pirate Ship OMG.
It's like some kinda adventure or treasure hunt and we finally found our way to it WEEEEEEEEEEEE


They always have some talk show or something before the ride and all the koreans that can understand would be laughing, Y U NO ENGLISH SUBZ !!!!!!! T express also, so many people laughed and we were just staring blankly waiting for the next coaster to be back. :/



somehow I don't feel the feeling I felt at Escape pirate ship when sitting with vu and lee.
WHY!!!!!!! Don't have the tingling fear feeling.



Again, I got dizzy. But uncle was even dizzier and he had to go vomit. It was around 3pm+ and we walked back to the Everland entrance to meet up with the rest.


Took pictures along the way !


Went into a shop to hide from the cold. Free popcorns from uncle quek ! He gave me and told me to eat before he went into the shop. So I was supposed to take care of the popcorns and eat it at the same time. 

But in the end I didn't dare to finish everything though I ate like 1/3 of the popcorns. So I gave them back and they : LOL WHY U NVR FINISH THE POPCORNS.

So I was like : I thought I was just supposed to take care of it what ! (even though I finished like 1/3 of it.)


With Big Ben of Korea !


So everyone gathered at around 5pm and we left Everland................. After the shuttle bus ride, we had a 20minutes bus ride to our next destination ! Didn't managed to take a picture of the sunset :( Took a short napzzzz. ^^

So by the time we reached, it's already dark and it's just around 6pm.
This is mum's paradise, my heaven...... Yeoju Premium Outlets.


All sort of brands from A to Z, from AIX to gucci to YSL to juicy c. to Nike to Polo ralph lauren to adidas to Baby Guess and Baby Gap so manymanymany more. >;) Mum went on a hunt to find baby gap jeans for Yi Heng, but the price was somewhat the same as SG's, so didn't bought any. 

This is the place where I had to constantly touch my calculator of iphone to calculate everything - everything divide by 835. It's so freezing cold outside yet so fuzzy warm when we enter the shops.

Mum bought her first YSL earrings here~



Only had like 1 hour 30minutes here, damn sadz, have to keep looking at my watch. Shopping never fails to attract us, not even the temperature of 0degree can stop us from shopping MUAHAHAHA
We were the last 2nd to board the bus !


A 5minute drive to our dinner place ! A traditional one !!!!!!! Finally get to kneel and eat ^^ The seaweed at the bottom right corner of the pic's so nice, even though I superduper dislike seaweed and find them utterly disgusting-looking/tasting.
MY FAV, CABBAGE + BBQ MEAT + RICE +(IF GOT A LITTLE CHILLI) = SHIOK!

7-people's family !

   mum and yanping ~
sienyee and yanping ~

Exchanged facebook with yanping ! Sat beside her on the bus and she gave me her bottle of Essentials cause of my superbadly entangled hair. The bus ride was quite long, about 40minutes. Didn't sleep at all cause I was sitting beside her and I seriously will not know if I were to lean on her like I'm leaning on the window or something.

Highway road was dark and then bright, dark and then bright, like msia's one. Kinda afraid that it's already day 3 or 4 in korea, I'm so scared that the rest of the days will just go so fast and the next thing I know will be I'm already on my way back home.


Yeah and it happened. A month just passed like that I can't believe it.

Reached Hanhwa Ski Resort, Phoenix Park after like 20 corners up a mountain road or something. Mum got so dizzy after that and she just sat at the hotel's lobby sofa for like 10minute before she can walk.


There's a Family Mart @ the hotel's lobby, but didn't went to explore until the next morning. Anyway this is the fucking place that had SNOW when it's NOT SNOWING. Luckily I was told recently that it's actually man-made snow, BUT STILL........ ARGH !@#$%^&*!@#$%^&*


My favourite so far cause the room's so cosy and family-like ! There's kitchen, 2 rooms, 1 which as 2 single beds while the other had like very thick mattresses for us to try sleeping on the heat-tech (?) floor. XiaoLi told us they had some heat dont know what thing under the floor so it's warm.

Mum chose to sleep on the bed though I wanted to try to sleep on the mattress but I didn't dare. T_T


XiaoLi told us there were no stores outside the resort except for a Family Mart so there's no need to explore around the area unless we want to explore the mountains to find ghosts. LULZ. The malaysian couple told us the next day that it was so scary cause there were so many doors and they were afraid that the ghost will appear.

I didn't have the time to worry about that cause it's showing 2 Days 1 Night again !

Yanping coming to our room to help us with the charger cuz we couldn't charge camera's battery and our phones.


I wanted to watch the 2ne1 TV at 12 or 12.30am so I set alarm clock and slept at 11.30pm. In the end, the alarm clock rang and I off it straight and din't even bothered to wake up. SO GOODBYE DAY 3, OFF FOR A DREAM !
