(all ready to go for horse riding!)
(front row from left: Sansan, Josephine, Er-jie, Da-jie, Liyan & Mina

Day 1
Set off rom home about 8pm.. Met Sansan... she's the sg tour guide who brought us there... but also her first time to Korea wor... Haha... And also another couple travelling with us... Kaige & Liyan. So ya... 10.30pm night flight... spent the night on plane... And shockingly the airline served DINNER at around 12am... after a snack shortly after the plane took off... it's RICE that they served for dinner... so siao lor... the rest of the time... was trying to sleep.. and i did lah.. haha...
Day 2
Reached Icheon Airport early morning... that's where we met Mina... our tour guide for Korea... then waited about an hour for the other couple to arrive cos they took diff airline from us... after that proceeded to another airport to another domestic flight to Jeju... While waiting to check in... We found Dunkin' Donuts!!! So we lay our hands on them quickly.. Heex... so we reached Jeju - 济州岛 around 10am... And we visited a tourist attraction immediately... the 龙头岩.
(click to enlarge to see the words)Then after that was Lunch time! (although it was only 10+.. haha..) We had Seafood Steamboat for the first meal in Korea..~!
Tada~!!! the seafood steamboat on the left and 6 types of kimchis - 泡菜 on the right.. i think that was the only meal that we had seafood.. but kimchis... everyday!! Just that they serve different kinds of kimchis... we were told that there were 200+ types of kimchis... Like every other thing can be made into kimchi lah..
Then visited a musuem where no photos were to be taken... too bad... then proceeded to a underground street called 塔洞街 to shop... but must say that the things there are not cheap... cos in the first place jeju is a volcanic island and is a place that doesn't have any factories for manufacturing... so everything they sell are imported from main land of Korea which resulted in higher pricing...
We checked in hotel around 4pm... and *pom* i went to sleep... =) was tired after the bad night flight with dunno how many turbulence met... and the early early morning... 2 hours later... time for dinner! Haha... this time we had mushroom steamboat! eh... nv take picture of it lah.. cos was busy eating and nothing much too.. heex... After that we went walking around... erm... nothing much on the streets... maybe we gone the wrong way or what... nonetheless... we found mac and so we bought ice-cream..! =) Saw KFC too... but find it quite ex... so even though someone was craving for it... we didn't have any throughout the trip... Then went to their supermarket be4 going back to hotel... bought a few packets of chips~ And we enjoyed them in the night in dad and mum's room... after we all bathe..
Day 3
Woke up quite early ba... had american big breakfast at the hotel rest. not fantastic but still quite nice.. then proceeded on the day's event... firstly.. to 城山日出峰. It's a peak of a underwater volcano... Very beautiful there... but cold too when the wind blows...
See!! i touched the mountain!! HAha... And the stone writes 城山日出峰.
Then we went to a few more places... 油菜花园，the All In shooting scenes - 涉地可支，then to a native village to look at the houses there... it's the shooting scene for Da Chang Jin at jeju i think..
The All In scene.
This is how they filtrate the water long time ago... when it rains.. water will drip down from the tree to the leaf... then the leaf will trap some particles... then they put a few frogs into the tank to let them clean the water by catching the mosquitoes or whatever... but then the person say only can use for washing all that but not comsumption lah..
After that went for lunch.. had 黑猪肉.. it's very nice lah...
Then proceeded to the horse riding session... which we took a group photo (the first photo of this entry) and...
that's me on the horse!! =) Nice time back on horse back again after like so long from 1999 in Australia.
Then went to 正房瀑布.. very tall lor.. and the water flows right into the sea...
Jason's the only one among the 6 of us who when right to the foot of the waterfall... cos it's quite a long way there... and we had to step on the rocks... which was quite difficult for our boots...
Then we went 橘子园，then to 大浦海岸... the rocks at the beach are like pillars... one by one standing on the seabed...
Eh... not very clear... maybe enlarge can see... if not then too bad.. =x
Ohoh... went to the hotel that All In used too... and went into the Casino... Hmm... actually it's quite small.. and very little ppl inside... so... ok lor... but at least i've gone into one.. right?! Then took some pictures around the garden of the hotel lor... very cold wor.. haha... Ya.. i think that's all for that day... went for dinner after that le... then me and sis went back to the supermarket to buy ice-cream!! Haagen Daz.. Heex... plus a few more biscuits and nachos... Haha.
Erm... Wait for the continuation!!! =)
