Korea Trip Day 2

Korea Trip Day 2 - 7th Dec 2009

We left the hotel at 7.30am to head for SKI WORLD!~ The tour guide told us it will take approximately 2 hours to reach our destination but it ended up becoming 4 hours. We stopped by the rental shop to rent the proper attire before heading to Ski World.

(Rental Shop)

"Wu Nai" expression LOL

Guys should always help girls rite!!!

(Before entering Ski World)

I Love the SNOW!!

(Ski World)

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh ~ So Excited!!~

Weeeeeee

I thought it would be SUPER COLD... the temperature was below zero so I wore 2 layers of pants and 2 tops plus a jacket............ but ^%#%$%&&* IT WAS SO HOT & Sunny!!!! Our tour guide was trying to teach us how to ski, so she made us "walk" up the slope... slide down and than "walk" up again.... try climbing a slope with the Ski on. (=.=)""""" CRAZY!!!! Super Tiring!!! Your feet weighs a TON.... plus each step you take... you will slide down a lil... SO in the end you only move like 3 inches!!! *FAINT*

(Locker Room)

Wahahaha we look so Pro rite

They always say.... "what you see is never what you get" It is so true. LOL

(At the beginner's slope)

(Attempting the beginner's slope for the second time)

It was the first time I ski at such height... Lun Lun was already a professional as it was his second time skiing. All of the adults in our tour group were amateurs therefore they ski down a lil and stopped... Ski a lil and stopped. Once again... everyone other than me (>.<) I did not know how to stop so while sliding down I had to decide whether to crash into the group of ppl at the bottom of the slope or crash myself into the nettings at the side. Me.. *being such a considerate person* decided to crash myself into the net. Well.... all I can say is...... it was a painful experience..... till today the HUGE bruise has not faded. T.T I thought that would be my first time as well as my last time skiing. "Mei Xiang Dao" after I calmed down... and under the persuasion of King I decided to give it a second try. Eh... I shall not elaborate.... but you ppl sod be able to imagine what happened...... it wasnt pretty. THIS time I was convinced that I shall not attempt the beginner slope again...... BUT..... haiz... after resting for awhile & under Benny's persuasion..... I went uphill again!!! AHHHHHH what was I thking (>.<) This time I did not crash... not bcse I finally learnt how to stop.... but bcse it was getting late, Ski World was kind of empty WAHAHAHA..... therefore I was able to  ski to the right and head for the exit when I reached the bottom of the slope. *Phew*

I thought they were skiing down slowly.... BUT.... majority of them took off their ski and just walked down the slope at the side LOL Hm... maybe I sod have done that too (@.@)

(Lun Lun)

~He LOVES skiing.... & is really good at it!!~

After exercising for one whole day, our tour guide brought us back to our resort, we call it the "Little Wooden House" to have dinner~ Although it was OUTDOOR BBQ in the below zero temperature it was actually quite enjoyable. The meat was delicious, they were really well marinated! After you Bbq it, you wrap a piece of fresh lettuce around the hot steaming pork and eat them together......... Just talking abt it makes me hungry (@.@)

 

(BBQ - Dinner)

(Lun Lun coming over to disturb us LOL)

Wanna take alook at the beautiful resort?!?   Tada:

 

You can imagine the Korean Drama.... A couple... So romantic..... With a beautiful wooden house filled decorated with colourful light bulbs..... Ok Ok I know... I watch too much Drama le rite! Oki le I gotta go to bed lu!!!~ Nite Nite lor Everyone... Sweet Dreams lor~

Korea Trip Day 1

My Dear Friends who are crazy about Korea must be really curious about what happened during the trip~ Sorry for the LONG wait!! Oki so now I shall not delay anymore! We (My family, relatives & myself) took the midnight flight from Hong Kong to Korea~

(Before Check-in)

Look at how many bags we have!!! I was thking WAH... so "Kua Zhang". Well.... later did I know... I was just too Naive. Thank Goodness they brought all the thick clothings *Phew*

I like this picture~ Soooo nicely taken... Dunno who is the photographer

*Hint Hint*

Yeah!!~ The Trip to Korea is about to Begin!! Although it was getting really late, I can't help but get more n more energetic!! Korea: The country filled with single eyelid people!!!! *Excited* Till now I still have a soft spot for guys with single eyelid ;p

                                       

Look!!! This is the resting lounge~ Hehehe This chair is really comfortable but.... what if I fall asleep and miss the flight?!?! They should built a big screen and play the latest Hollywood movie Heh Heh Heh *Greedy* Wish I have a lounge chair in my house too!

Why can't Lun Lun EVER take a decent picture?!?!?!

I know some of you are like *&^*^&^^%$$#%$# still dun show us the pictures you took in Korea!!! Oki Oki BUT before I move on to that... I HAVE to show you guys a pic of the plane rite!!! How can we get to Korea without the plane!!

(Psssssst.... I gotta drag abit ah... still waiting for my hair to dry ;p I can't be sitting in the living room doing nothing rite!! Be patient ma!!)

 

Korean Airline and our Ghostly Reflections

*KOREA!! HERE WE COME!!*

After 3 hours of flying we finally reached KOREA!! It was 5 plus in the morning, we walked around the airport trying to grab some breakfast. Guess where we ate?!?! At McDonalds! Its the only place that was open (=.=)" Fly all the way there just to eat a McDonalds breakfast *Sian Diao* We met up with our tour guide after breakfast, hopped onto the bus and headed for Seoul city. Everyone else other than me were falling asleep on the bus. I kept myself awake, trying to remember all that I saw...... the beautiful water, the flat lands, the amazing sun rise. All the unhappiness, stress and problems in my life no longer mattered.

  

Look.... Purple... Pink.... Orange...Blue

How can the sky be filled with so many colours

Since it was still early when we reach Seoul City, the tour guide brought us to the Casino (Lucky 7). King managed to win some money (^.^) while I took the time to straighten myself up. I had to!! The next stop was EVERLAND (something like Disneyland but even more lame) I din wanna look so haggard and messy in the pictures!!

 

*EVERLAND*

Hahaha we look like Dumplings.

It was soooooo COLD!! even after we wore gloves our fingers still hurt. My toes no longer felt like my own. Oh whats worst was.... Everland..... is all OPEN AIR de!!!!  &^%^&%#)$(*($&#  We did not care about which rides were interesting which rides weren't. As long as it was an indoor ride we would queue for it LOL! Our tour guide had to ensure that we were FROZEN to death... thats y........ she made us ride the "Human Sky".

 

*Me trying to look casual*

Why Trying?!? Cause I was freezing to death & I am Afraid of heights (@.@)

Hm... Its weird bcse in the past I was not afraid of heights de!!

Luckily she led us onto a bus (SO MUCH WARMER) to look at White Tigers, Lions, Liger and Bears. Wanna see how the Liger look like?!?! Tada:

Doesnt look that special to me. Still prefer white tigers.

Among all the animals, the bears were the cutest!! They are trained to stand up, wave, "Bai Bai" & hold their feet and rock back and forth. So cute!!!! Whenever they see the bus coming they will line up on the left side because the driver is the one giving them treats after they do their commands rite. You guys can imagine all the "Awww.... Wah..... Oooo..." on the bus LOL.

Pretty much nothing happened in Everland bcse majority of the time all 8 of us were hiding in the restaurant. It was just TOO cold to go anywhere else!

We were waiting for the restaurant to open. Look at all the Sian Faces LOL

*Yeah* Finally our first meal in Korea!~

It wasnt that delicious but at least eating helps to warm us up.

We left the restaurant after what seemed like forever and started running from one indoor ride to the next. LoL that was when we saw the Christmas Parade~ 

Us refugees queuing for an indoor ride. I think the ride was called Rotating House.

Its SNOWING!!!!

Fake de la LOL... Its just paper cut outs Hahaha.... but I still ran around trying to catch the "Snow" in mid air. I succeeded ok!! I managed to catch 2 and brought them back to Hong Kong... Hm.. where are they now?!?! Gotta search for them le~

 

Abit de lame... but at least they try

Finally it was time to leave Everland!! Our tour guide brought us to Doota to do a little shopping before heading for Dinner. The coats in Korea are fabulous!! Alot nicer than those sold in Singapore, Hong Kong and Melbourne but I did not get to buy any bcse I WAS JUST TOOOO TIRED. I hvnt been slping for more than 48 hours, I was practically dragging my feet along as we walked. So when it was time for dinner all of us were relieved..... we were getting closer to go to our hotel and have a good nite rest. Dinner was fantastic, we had ginseng chicken soup (^.^)

Love the soup, Love the chicken, Love the rice! NICE!

What was the best thing that happened that day?!?! THE HOTEL!!! It was clean, warm and big with a huge mirror, a small aesthetic basin, most importantly the toilet bowl can be operated to wash your butt LOL.

 Thank you so much for a good nite rest after such a LOOOONG day.
Really needed that.

Congrats Congrats to them!!! Let me tell you peeps a lil about them. On 12th Dec 1996, my cousin  (Nelson) made a promise to his gf that he will wed her in 10 years time (2006)...... BUT........ in 2006 they realised they hvnt saved up for the wedding. So~ It took them 3 years to save up and plan this beautiful, romantic and fantastic wedding ceremony~ It was really sweet of him to remember the promise and (although 3 years late) kept it. A beautiful love story~~~~ Wish the both of you a *HAPPILY EVER AFTER!!!*

Well.... all thx to my pretty pretty heels~ I should start another blog specially dedicated to this pair of heels bcse it created such a frenzy at home LOL.......
