KOREA~ SPARKLING!Heello!
Flew back from Korea last night and brought back over $150 worth of food and a couple of other goodies. Despite the freezing cold weather, Korea was GREAT :) Travelled from Incheon to YangJi to Seoul, and visited quite a number of places like the
Olympic Park, Gyeongbokogung Palace, Dongdaemun Market,
Yangji PineResort, etc etc...
Here's the trend for girls in Korea: Short, curled hair with bangs. As for the guys: Black framed glasses... well that was what I noticed cos I saw lots of them everywhere with that similar look.
Before I continue with the rest of the posts, I've got something really depressing to share.... All of Day 1-3 pictures that was taken using my Dad's camera was somehow accidentally deleted. All 159 of them :'( including Everland and Ski photos :((((
But thank God I have at least the picture of the ski field, and a few other photos which I took using my camera...
Day 1 -- IcheonTouchdown at dawn, all set and ready for the tour. Stepped out of the airport and was greeted by winter's cold breath. The journey to our first site had lots of nice scenary. Sunrise, trees, and mountains.... First stop:
Suwon Hwaseong (fliming site of "Deajanggum". No one in my family watches Korean dramas though) There wasn't really much to see there. It's like the great wall of China surrounding a huge peice of land. Kept walking with my head in the jacket cos I didnt bring out my scarf. I was freakin cold okay. Not used to the weather yet.

Sleepy but excited 

Next stop,
EverLand. It was rather disappointing that not all of the rides were open. Sam and I only got to go on two rides: Championship rodeo and Eagle Fortress (a roller-coaster ride through the forest. very nice) On the brighter note, we went to EverLand's Zoo-topia. Came face to face with lions, tigers and huge grizzly bears in a bus ride through a huge enclosure. Zoo-topia has the very first hybrid of a lion and tiger (but it just looked like a white lion) There were other animals like kangaroos, beavers, perrie dogs, polar bears... etc
At the end of the day, we went shopping at
Yeojun Premium Outlets before going for dinner. Dad said that their Premium Outlets is the exact duplicate of the one in America. I bought a Adidas's bag at a really good price :) that'll be one of my christmas presents. Reebok's new collection of shoes are really nice. But sadly Reebok's not popular in Singapore lately :-/
...I love LeSportsac :) It's the nice patterns that makes their products look so attractive. Unfortunately not for the price. Their wallets, bags and accessories have really lovely designs.

Amped print. I like this one.
We skipped Termeden Spa mainly becos we would have to bathe in the common toilets (everyone bathes together and you got no privacy). Korean style bbq dinner was not bad. All together my family ate two big bowls of
pork.
That night we arrived at
Yangji PineResort. Sam and I had our own suite with queen size bed and kitchen. The good thing about our rooms is that it faced the ski field :) Parent's suite was next door... More on day 2 and 3 tomorrow!
