next to lunch... dumpling steamboat..

super nice.. one of the best food eaten in korea liao... inside got dumpling.... korean rice cake... vegetables and meat.. Its refillable oso.... full sia...

after meal... procees to cheju island... went to the department store or rather supermarket opp the hotel..

KIMCHI!!

and more kimchi... kekeke...

but the nicest one is still the one u can find in SG... and its the most common in korea too... but ever take kimchi that consist of green leaves vegetable.. they taste real awful...

Day 3 - Che Ju Island

Heavy heavy rain.. wif typhoon... brought 2 umbrellaz all kena upset by typhoon... the rest of the ppl in the tour all bought a raincoat.. except me.. cuz i tot dun haf my size.. heng i got my crumpler bag to protect the stuff in my bag.. which includes the precious camera... crumpler bag $120 is not for nth one kz... its completely water proof.. nv take much photo due to the rain...

well.. here's breakfast...

Abalone porridge wif no abalone for breakfast.. how ironic...

proceed to see the dragon head rock thingy and the trademark statue of che ju island... suppose touch already will get son or wadeva la... nv take the picx of the statue due to heavy rain.. well manage to take the picx of the dragon head rock thingy...

that's the rock... but u cannot see from this angle... and i didn't get down to take the dragon head cuz i'm without any raincoat... and i'm still not that wet.. dun wan to get wetter in anyway... but in the end still completely drench la...

next... went to sunrise peak.... it suppose to be a hill tt we muz climb as part of the schedule... but it was raining heavily... and the typhoon was damn strong by then... in the end nv climb... while others attempt to climb the hill... i was in the bus... and the bus was shaking damn strongly by the wind sia... the hill behind is sunrise peak..

due to the bad weather... all program was changed to indoor... the tour did went to the place where they film Da Chang Jin.. but didn't take any photo.... cuz the camera will be wet... i was running ard the whole place without a raincoat and umbrella... tt's when i'm completely wet...

while heading to the lunch... the tour guide was telling us abt the structure of the traditional houses of che ju island back in the past.. she oso mention abt the religion of a particular tribe in the island... they dun believe in buddha, christ or wadsoeva... but they believe in god of sky... god of sea and etc... my main pt is.... they oso haf a god of sex... this is a very impt god as tt particular tribe was lacking in male... and by praying the god of sex... they will haf male child.. thus.. they will put a statue of the man's most impt part outside the house... and pray everyday.. omg... imagine in tt tribe... statue of penis is everywhere where there r houses... lol..

lunch was bbq black pig.... not singapore's normal pink pick.. not malaysia's mountain pig... but korea's BLACK pig... and it taste nicer than all of them.. and is the nicest food i eaten in korea... and its free flow~!!
The ATV ride (dunno wad's tt) was replaced by BEAR MUSEUM... its not those real grizzy bear where they will roar at u lyk mad... is teddy bear~~ hundreds of it~~the wedding..

titanic~

BEAR Ma Yong..

Snow white and the 7 bears...

Elvis Presley~

The Pope

Can u find Einstein??

Chucky.. hmm.. doesn't look as evil...

oopzz... censored~

smallest bear in the world... this picx is took wif full zoom... and it is even magnified by magnifying glass...

one of the most expensive bear in the world... LV sehz~~

more bears~

and even more bears~

actually.. i got abt 80 more bears photo... hahaha... cannot show all la.. if not will die...

beside the bear museum... is the charlton walker hotel... since it was convinence... we went dere.. but y muz visit dis particular hotel??? its cuz the hotel's casino is the place where they film the show 'All In'.

This is the view behind the hotel..
God of Gambler~~~ taadaAa~~ this is the table where they use to film the show... now become tourist attraction liao... lol..

haha... i was so impressed by this toilet bowl in the hotel tt i haf to take a picx of it... dis toilet bowl can help u wash ur as* and help u blow dry summore... i think got music function oso... but dunno how to press.. after all its in korean... i tried to press every single button le...

went to tea museum after tt.. nth much... juz sum display of cups.. plates and of cuz tea leaves... that's the inside... boring boring~~ yawnz~ let's skip dis...

dinner time!!Seafood steamboat..

i dun lyk to eat seafood.. so didn't haf much of it... instead... i took all the kimchi since it was free flow... If u haven notice.. kimchi is provided for single meal and is free flow.. it is rich in lactic acid-producing microorganism.... which is a form of probioticx... help in digestion of food... and i was completely convinced.. i i nv had so much sh*t in my life in 7 days... morning and night and sumtimes afternoon business... summore i still bought a few probiotic and prebiotic drinks to consume... ahh~~~

Back in the hotel.. can see sea view across the window.... and i first time see how the wave can go higher than the street lamp post... i was lyk wah... dis is how strong the typhoon can go...

Day 4 - Daegu

Nice weather... away from che ju island thru 50 min flight... to Daegu and we proceed to dunno wad temple... inside there got a big big buddha statue... here's some scenary taken while walking to the buddha statue...

And here's the Buddha Statue~~ taadaa~~

lunch sux... taste awful... the tofu.. the toufu soup... the mushroom and all other ingredients taste as bad... maybe is i dunno how to appreciate la... but realli cmi...

next.... shopping at Daegu city~~ finally see life sia... see big grps of korean ppl hanging ard...
was so disappointed at tt time for not seeing any korean yan dao and chio bus... i tot dis is juz beginning... dere may be chio bus and yan dao coming up in seoul... i was wrong... so wrong.... DERE R NO SUCH THING IN AS CHIO BU AND YAN DAO IN KOREA... i am consider shuai in korea... haha... now u noe the standard.. we r fooled by korea dramas... but they really noe how to style themself up la... and this is causing a serious society problem of 'beethoven'

SPA valley was the next stop... while some went to swim be4 going to spa.. i juz went directly to the spa and stayed dere for 2 hrs... didn't take any photos cuz the spa muz be all nude (gals and guys r isolated).. if i take.. its gonna be porn liao... hahah. the water massage was great... after a short while of hot spring.. jump into the cold bath for water massage.. damn shiok...

dinner was dong fen steamboat at SPA valley... nice oso... but the soup quite salty.. free flow of meat..soup.. kimchi.. vege.. wad more u wan...

Day 5 - JeonJu

the reason y i didn't mention abt breakfast for day 4 is cuz its hotel buffet... classic english buffet.. scramble eggs.. sausages... and so on.. plus kimchi... how weird... anyway breakfast for day 5 was the same too...

ok... welcome to Ma Er Shan (Horse Ear Hill).. theres a temple dere.. and here it is... wah... i think this shot best le... exactly lyk those on poster.. climb up to the temple dere to take picx from above...

The guide gave us too much time for climbing up this temple.. and my aunt was chatting wif another a zhu ma from the tour...

My aunt at her 40s was grinning: izzit?? 40 years old oso young 50 years old oso young ma... so how old do i look?

A Zhu Ma: yah... u abt 58 years old rite??

Went to Ginseng plantatin early in the morning...

the ginseng plant is hiding inside the black black thing at the back..

dis is the ginseng plant... juz in case u r wondering where is the ginseng where we normally see.. its the root of the plant la.. stupid =P

ginseng is onli ready after 6 years... and the ground after growing ginseng cannot be used to grow ginseng anymore... so farmers haf to rely on other crops such as rice plant as shown above...

following up is lavander park... full of flowers sia... full of nice scents of flower.. but i keep smelling indian smell everywhere....

lots of flowerzZ~

wj.. this picx is specially for ya...

tt's wad i am telling jx they all... rock of man's most impt part.. (not including ch.. suggested by wj) at lavander part... touch it and u shall haf a son... lol... but really look alike sia... hahaha...

that's not another type of flower tt we sightsee.... but our FOOD.. its FLOWER BiBimBap... unlike normal bibimbap... it has flower on it... and u can actually eat the flowers...

mix everything tgt... and put the flower on top.. den eat it~.. yummy~~

After leaving lavander park... 2 hrs ride of coach and a boat ride to Nami Island...

this is the sea view while on boat... peaceful huh...

find this familiar? no? juz imagine here covered with snow.... yes.. this is the place where they film 'Winter Sonata'.. dis is the unromantic version... if i come later dis autumn... everything will be red... but now all green... ahh.. i haf been cheated... i tot is autmn but the leaves haven turn green.. ahhh~~~~!!!!!! dis is wad i call... pre-autumn sonata...

DongDaeMon is a place tt u muz go... very lively... lots of ppl.. lots of shopping centre... there is even stages for ppl to showcase their talents... got alot of ppl watching.. cheering and even luffing... Dis is the one of the main shopping centre in DongDaeMon...
