Korea trip ~ Day 6

This morning, our coach drove along the famous 漢江 where a lot of K dramas scenes were filmed there.  Our local guide said that without this river, Seoul is not nice as all are buildings.  Quite true uh.

We had our buffet breakfast and went to Shinchon Shopping street.  Not much time given to us for shopping (just 1hr 30mins) and today's shopping was purely skincare.  I bought Laneige water sleeping pack as my sister said it is good and its cheap in Korea.  Also bought some masks for our own use and for my elder sister.

After shopping, we went to Hello Kitty Cafe.  OMG!!!!  We went crazy liao once stepped in.  Snapped photos at all corners.  I cannot resist the cute cafe.  We were given a drink and a pack of cookies (included in our tour package).  The cookies were very nice.  Too bad they don't sell.  Otherwise, I will definitely buy.

Time passed very fast and after lunch, we went back to our hotel at Lotte World.  Kept our shopping items in hotel room and went to the Duty free shops at Lotte's mall.  We had dinner at a Japanese restaurant and the prices for the ramen were not expensive (compared to Singapore).  Dinner was on our own choice as we were given 10000 won each.  Yummy.

My parents and bro were tired hence for Lotte World Park, only my sister and I went.  We went there rather late and after taking photos, all the rides were closed.  Waiting time for per ride was about 60 - 100 mins hence the queue had stopped at around 9pm.  Sad leh....

Nothing to do hence went back to room lor.

Korea trip ~ Day 5

Went to Mt Sorak in the morning after breakfast.  It was rather cold in this mountain area and I had to wear my pullover.  The weather was misty hence could not see clearly from mountain top.  In order to satisfy ourselves, we had ice-creams, pancakes and rice cakes as snacks.

Visited Shingheungsa temple where there is a very big buddha statue and had lunch before our long journey back to Seoul.  It took about 3hrs plus to be back in the city.  Slept a bit in the coach.

By the time we reached Seoul, it was dinner time liao.  Had Ginseng chicken tonight.  Don't really like but still can eat lah.

Had my yogurt drink again.  Very tiring day on travelling.

Korea trip ~ Day 4

Woke up at 5.45am as our flight was early.  Need to have breakfast before heading to airport.  Had a rather quick one and it was Abalone porridge.  Quite nice.

Luckily we managed to get big plasters and antiseptic cream from the pharmacy in the airport.  Applied the cream and dressed up my mum's wound in the toilet.  At least she can walk properly without worries that her pants will stick on the wound.

Reached Gimpo airport and we headed to Everland directly.  The journey took about 1hr 30mins.  We could sleep during the journey but I could not sleep uh...

The weather was good as it was not raining.  Rather sunny and we had to take out our "weapons" ~ umbrellas and hats.  The place was too big and with my parents around, we could not cover the whole place.  Just queued for the safari bus ride to watch tigers and bears with near views.

Managed to catch the parade and in just 15mins, I was "cao da".  

We left the park at 6pm and had dinner before going back to hotel to rest.  Rather early when we were back in hotel and today's hotel no wifi in the room.  Went to the lobby with my sister and we decided to go to the nearby convenient store to buy yogurt drinks.  I need it to do "big biz".  Did not drink enough water uh.  

Our breakfast ~ abalone porridge

Everland ~ vouchers given to us for lunch
