Korea Day 2 (Part 1)

Decided to break down the longer days into several parts or else this is going to take forever!

Day 1 was super packed but Day 2 was going to be even more packed. But well, at least we had a good night’s sleep rather than cramped up in an airplane seat!

Our hotel: Cheju Oriental

Check out the lobby… looks kinda posh right….

until you see…

But ok lah… still quite cosy.. with nice traditional touches..

Morning started with kimchi – what else?

And also the highly anticipated abalone porridge! Our tour guide Michael did prepare us mentally that it’s abalone porridge without abalone (ok have la, but very tiny!) Still despite Joe’s face, it was very tasty! I liked it!

Off to attraction 1 of the 7 we were going to visit that day! Yes, seven!

Seongsan Ilchulbong also known as Sunrise Peak, is well known for its beautiful views of sunrise. If you are wondering, we din go and see the sunrise lah! Too early lah!

It is a lava cone created by an underwater volcanic eruption some 5,000 years ago. I din know how it looked from a bird’s eye view till I saw this picture online! Beautiful!

All ready to make our ascent!

It’s beautiful!

As you make your way up, you will see lots of small and big rocks.

You see the rest of Jeju Island from here!

We’ve reached the top!

Some shots of our tour members!

Auntie and Uncle who had great stamina! Uncle was wearing stylo milo Converse shoes OK? =)

Making our descent down!

Last look and last pics before our 2nd stop!

Stay tuned for the next part of Day 2!
