Day 6

Well, it was the last day for the other 13 singaporean but we, 15 people going to JEJU ISLAND! Before leaving, we still have time for breakfast, lunch and shopping! Morning, we ate korean buffet. Erm.. okay to me. Then we went to FACESHOP to buy their products. DAMN cheap !.! And we went some other shops too... Forgot what shops le. HAHA! Afternoon still eating lunch in seoul, we ate stir-fried pork wit vegetables, rice and miso soup. Their miso soup SO delicious! So i think we took plane to jeju island around in the afternoon.. Say goodbye to Billy, the photographer. He very SHUAI leh! Haha. And the 13 sinaporean who accompany us for the last few days. Reached jeju airport, we took our luggage and stuff to the bus. The next destination is went to the see 'dragon' rock then see the mermaid. Took photos and went to souvenir shop to see. Next was went to the muesum, It was about how last time people's living.. DINNER time! It was mushroom pot and shi guo ban fan. The mushroom pot tastes abit weird, i like the first mushroom pot i ate in seoul. Shi guo ban fan was okay.. After that, we went to hotel le. Was the first time to check in hotel so early =D. But the bad thing is nothing to do in hotel after putting our things. We went around the hotel and outside. After that then we went back to the hotel room, washed up and packed our things. Nothing to pack though because the next night we no need to checked out like we in seoul. ^^ No air-con because i heard that korea people want to save the energy so they switched off. You need to open the windows to let the natural wind to go in. Watch tv and sleep. HAHA! the double bed so small. My cousin and aunt squeezed into one bed. I think in the middle of the night, my cousin fell off from the bed.They very xin ku..

Day 7

No need to wake up so early. And temperature was like 10 degrees above. Not so cold. Went to eat breakfast. Breakfast was abalone porridge plus egg. To people there, abalone porridge was nothing. It was like their everyday breakfast. Then we went to 'mysterious road'. Why isit called 'mysterious road'? If you see the road, the road is like normal road (straight). The tour bus show us, without the engine, the bus will go down by itself. My cousin bought chewing gum there. Next was went to the extinct volcano. Now is the place for tourists. Climbing up the hill, is not so easy. So we climbed up until the 1/3 of the hill? *exhausted* After all the taking of photos and sightseeing. Went down and bough green tea ice-cream. I don't know how to describe it. Because it was so NICE~!!! Yum yum =) We bought jeju chocolate. The chocolate got different flavour. NICE OKAY~!!! Then we went to korea traditional house to buy honey and another one in chinese called 'wu wei zi cha'. They helped to delivered it when we are leaving korea and sent it straight to singapore. After that, we went to see waterfall. The waterfall is deep down. You need to walk down the stair for a few minutes. Tiring~ Walked around the area and went up again and to the bridge. Put coin into the wishing well.... Then back to bus. Their road is different. It was like uneven and rough. And the buildings are also different from the building that we see in seoul or singapore. Lunch,we ate BBQ pork. It was black pork. In chinese called hei zhu rou. It tastes different from the pork we normally ate. It was sweet, juicy and spicy. EXCELLENT~! Next stop was the TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM. The bears are so cute.^.^ My cousin and i bought one bear each. The bear costs $16 in singapore? The alfred bear in princess hours( korea drama) which is cost about $30 plus. We went outside too. Took many photos there. After that, we went to green tea museum. See their cups and different kinds of tea. We also ate the green tea ice-cream. One cup costs about $5 in singapore? Quite expensive but worth it. =D Haha. Took photos there too. Keep on jump and *snap* with my cousin. LOL! So fun. And also watching the bus driver attacking the BIG bug in our bus. Went to eat dinner. Dinner was Seafood pot. Most of them is raw. But i give it a try but some of them taste quite....*ewww*. Haha. Oya, my aunt and father went to try the active octopus sticking to their face. The uncle forced me to try. But i said NO! Then the uncle cut the octopus leg and put it at my bowl. The octopus leg still moving. After that, the tour guide asked us to shop around the area. There were many shops. My cousin keep haunting for notebook. -.-" *DRIZZLING* in jeju when we on our way back to the hotel. Went to family mart to buy fresh milk and cup noodles. Went back to hotel. Washed up, packed our things, and ate cup noodles and drink instant cereal. Put my fresh milk in the fridge. When i am charging my phone, i smelt some wierd smell from the switch. Then i asked my aunt what is it? Then we are frightened then called my parents. Asked my cousin quickly come out from the bathroom when he was happily soaked in the bathtub. HAHAHA~ I quickly plugged out my handphone charger. After awhile the smell don't have le. Slept with my aunt. Squeezed in one small double bed. And WARM! It started to rain heavily in jeju.

Day 8

Still raining. Morning, wake up at 5 plus. Meet others the lobby at 7 plus. Walked to the same seafood restaurants to eat abalone porridge and 2 slices of bread and one egg. I am bloated. Back to the bus and to the airport. Took plane to seoul about 9 plus. Never rain in seoul. But it is colder than jeju. I am *FREEZING*. The wind keep blowing at me. After reaching seoul, we sat on the tour bus again. =D Then the tour guide let us to have last shopping. Went to different places. I remember one place was junction, along there near one girl's school. There were many shops. Sell differents kinds of handphone, watches, clothes and food. We bought porky there. The porky taste nicer than singapore's? I realised it is hard to find one rubbish bin in the junction. But the floor is clean !.! My mother bought two clothes for my brother. Lunch, we ate chinese food. It is better than last time i ate the chinese foods. Nearby shops, my cosuin and I bought notebook. One notebook cost ONLY $2 in singapore. After eating, we went to warehouse to buy things. Like seaweed, chille flakes, sweets, biscuits, instant noodles, pillows. I tell you the instant noodles in korea taste totally different from singapore. The noodle is QQ and the soup base was nice. My father bought one box of it. And korea pillows are nice to lay on. So many things to carry? No need to worry. They helped us to packed all in one box. Then we took plane back to SINGAPORE at around 3 plus! 4 plus, we ate dinner le. Fast right? I ate seafood and rice. Took a nap then watch Harry Potter on the aeroplane. And also got teabreak. i ate beef pizza. WEEE~! Back to my home at 9.30 p.m.! Haha. My parents went to duty free to buy my brother's perfume. And also wine and beer.

Reached destination, got events at there and also they told us to see the mountain behind the president's workplace. The mountain got 'a pair of eyes' and a 'nose'.

Went in to the shop and buy one pencil box for myself and my cousin bought one notebook. We continue to shop and see people's stalls. We bought food to eat. Such as fried potatochip, hot and spicy stir-fried carrotcake (la chao nian gao). It was really spicy but very NICE~~~ I wished singapore also have street food stall. Haha! =D We bought socks. Very cheap, one pair costs $1 plus in singapore only. Then i bought a watch costs $8 from stall. Shopped until like 7.45p.m then we went to eat dinner at chinese restaurant. The thing is most of the dishes contain EGG and TOFU! Haiz. We took photos and off to another place! Last one was the LOTTE WORLD!!! It was filmed from a korea drama called tian guo de jie ti (Stairway to heaven) Got 3 tickets to play. First is the tour guide wants us to play. Is like sitting on the boat. Then got story(movie) to let you to go around. The boat got slightly go up and and down. At first we thought very deep but no. HAHAHA! Next was went to the "hot air balloon". To see the internal scenery. But regret of sitting it because another one is the train, can also go see outside. D: Then we went to play merry-go-round. To experience the scene in the korea drama: tian guo de jie ti (Stairway to heaven). Nothing much to play though. Then walked around and took photos. Waiting for the 10 mins laser performance at 9.30pm i think. Erm okay because i DON'T understand what they saying. because is in korea. Haha. We went back to hotel. Hotel is 6-star hotel. FINALLY got scenery to see. WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! Haha. And my aunt, cousin and me wnet to go for a walk around the lobby. Have a good sleep there. I found out the only bad thing on the next morning is the toilet bowl cannot FLUSHED. If flushed too much, the toilet water will keep going up and overflow.
