Korea Day2
Thursday, December 14, 2006
Day2 Time[0830 GMT+9] Place[Lotte Hotel]

Alrights people.. here's day 2.. and the first thing i learnt that day was.. Women are lousy drivers.. or at least that was what the koreans thought.. i mean look at the picture on the left.. "parking for Women ONLY".. as if by the architect's sarcasm.. the parking space was comparatively bigger and unlike the other parking lots. there were lines drawn around it forming a box.. supposedly to guide the feminin driver into the lot. therefore achieving no disruptions to other drivers due to their "incorrigible" parking skills.. LOL

ok.. enough said.. i'll simply jump straight into the day's highlights.
we visited the Cheonjeyeon waterfalls bright and early.. to avoid the mad rush of tourists which would undoubtedly had left us pancakes and our experience there a horid one.. like most trips.. some areas can only be explained with the help of beautiful pictures.. taken by me of cuz.. =P..it is.. MY camera..
A Korean Temple and Maple tree in background
stairway to Korean Temple
Seonimgyo Bridge.. its really a rather long stretch..
At the waterfalls with family..[bro,mum,dad,me]
what a beautiful reflection.. ain't it?

we proceeded to have lunch.. which was as the tourguide said.. BBQ Black Pig.. note that was what our local tour guide told us.. now compare with what we ate.. [the photo]
That's stir-frying right? wait.. that's not right.. it's just a hot-plate.. that's BBQ? ok..

we went on to scale a volcano.. also known as Songsan Sunrise Peak. i'm not really sure as to whether this was the volcano which formed Jeju.. but judging on its geometrical location.. i'm surmising that it is not..
ok.. so this is how the crater looks like from far.. ok.. around 300m away.. the climb up was underestimated by me.. initially i sprinted up the steps provided and made it half way-up but by then, fatigue took over.. well.. first.. i was wearing long-johns which is a skin hugging piece of garment, it restricts your movement a lot.. secondly.. i was wearing jeans[ok that was not an excuse].. thirdly.. o enough with the excuses..
here the view at the base of the crater

after much effort.. we made it to the top.. and here's a paranormal view of it.. quite a sight aint it..[click to enlarge]

COME ON.. i am human ok.. i was tired.. REALLY
wow.. this really is quite a nice shot.. [bro in background]
Family shot!
Ocean View..[Pacific Ocean]

we later proceeded to an orange orchard where i found the most hilarious item open to the public in Jeju..
I Love my mum!
we see this almost everywhere in Jeju Island.. it is said if one were to touch the nose of this statue.. it would allow them to conceive a son.. cuz in korea.. it is against the law for doctors to reveal the sex of the unborn baby to parents.. Korea still have the thinking of olden days.. think china..
i have no idea what the boxes were for.. but who cares.. lol

and now.. the most hilarious item..

A PENIS!! WTF.. LOL.. ROFL.. o COME ON.. LAUGH ALREADY

we then started a 90min journey to a marketplace for us tourists to spend our heap loads of cash.. well of cuz thats not the case for my family.. we brought only what was enough.. and it seems the climb proved too much for my dear brother to handle.. falling asleep almost instantaneously on the bus.. LOL.. when we eventually arrived at the place.. we were all blur.. cause we saw nothing related to shopping in sight.. it was underground!! REALLY.. a huge percentage of shopping usually takes place below the earth.. o ya.. their market place sells everyhing.. really.. live squids, octopus[we saw one trying to escape], ABALONE.. and the last one u juz gotta see the pic.. lol..


Floral displays litter the streets.. literally.. this is one of the more beautiful flowers.. to me at least.. =D
ABALONE!
ABALONE MEAT!! *drooling*
More abalone..Squids..
Octopus..
