Korea - Day 1

Hello everyone, sorry for my delayed on posting this blog about my holiday at Korea. Well yeah, me and my sister chose Korea as our destination for our summer holiday. First, we were confused to pick the destination between Korea or Taiwan. But then, we chose Korea, as we love Korea so much so yeah.

At the D-Day, I found out that my soon-tourmate was a friend of my friend! Her name is Ivy and her sister's name is Olga. And they know Claresta and Sinchan who is my friend. What a small world isn't it. Well basically, as soon as we get to know each other (me and the other tourmate) there's a line connecting each of us which it makes the world looks even smaller. Ivy and Olga was already discussed, and the other tourmate like Andreas and Eman were studying at BPK Penabur GS. And there's a family, and that family was the owner of Tekko! And our tour-leader, Aunt Hanny, she is the aunt of my friend, Jewe! Small world I know.

Our flight was going to take off on 9pm. Then we're going to transit at Singapore for one hour, it's about midnight I suppose, then we're off to Korea. We will reach at Korea around dawn. So the flight took 6 hours long. Can you imagine, all I do was sitting in the same seat for the next 6 hours. Well yeah, I should sleep on the plane, because after we reach Korea, we will start our activity. But I can't sleep on the plane. I fell asleep only for a while, around 30mins I guess. The rest of it, I was just closed my eyes and watched movies or played games or listened to music.

Then, finally we arrived at South Korea! Incheon International Airport! I really can't wait to start our activity, well especially shopping and Seoul activity. Because the plan was not only at Seoul, we're going to Mount Sorak, Daegu, Jeongju, and other places.

Oh yeah I found this huge billboard! It's 2PM! Snap! Snap!

Then we had breakfast at Global Chow Buffet. Still inside the airport. They're showing the re-run of the World Cup match between Chile and what I forgot. The meal was western-like and not that good but okay though.

When I inhale the South Korea's air, there's some kind of weird smell but hey it's Korea's air! LOL. It's quite windy that day. But thankfully, it's not raining.

Then we're heading to Petite France. It's an area that look like France, but a petite version, that's why they called it Petite France. Well yeah, logically.

The view was really nice and breathtaking. And so many flowers. Mind my look, because I've been on a plane for 6 hours and couldn't get a sleep for more than 30minutes. No wonder, I look like a mess right. And my hair was totally sucks at that time.

And I found Jang Geun Seok's autograph. Because, it turns out that this place was the location of Beethoven Virus drama.

After we had fun at Petite France, well not having fun literally, we're just walking around and that's it. Then we headed to Naminara Republic. It's the handmade-island where Winter Sonata shooting at. We had to take ferry boat to reach there, about 5 minutes if I'm not mistaken. We had lunch in here, a grill marinated chicken. It's quite delicious.

This is the 'hall'. If you guys watched Winter Sonata, sure you know this place. But I don't watch the drama so I don't have any idea. But it's great if you took a picture in here. The trees around you. And yeah so on. Oh, and it's crowded here. Couples mostly. Oh and I found a very pretty girl. Seriously pretty. I bet she was an uljjang, and yeah I think I ever saw her face on the internet.

And there's ostrich! They let it walked around freely. And it's huge trust me. Yeay I got the picture.

I tried this ice cream! It's delicious :9 Cookies and Cream flavours. What a nice package right.

Then we take dinner near our Resort at Mount Sorak. Our dinner was fried fish. Korean restaurant, so we sit on the floor and there's korean side dish. And they have TV and they're showing Star Golden Bell at that time. I still can't believe that I'm at Korea already.

Well, that's it for today. Keep waiting for my next post 'Korea - Day 2'
