annyong haseyo! (greeting in korean language) haha it was a fun and different experience for me and my family.. coz it was the first time our family travelling tog to a further away place.. away from the usual msia trips:) On the 9th of June, around 8 pm, 4 excited beings got ready and set off with 2 luggages to Terminal 1:)

dear sending us off before we flew at 11pm:)



the first thing in the itinery after touching down at Korea was the visit to the Inspaworld where we can enjoy the korean hot spring!! this was what me and my sis were looking forward to the whole time! --without noeing tt we werent supposed to wear anything, even swimming costume.. with a long hesitation and discussion with our fellow tour grpmate gals, we decided to give try it a try since we have taken e plane all e way here..after the docter fish leg spa which was practically a leg tickling session when everyone had a good time laughing off their heads while the doctor fish were busy biting off out our dead skin.. hahaa.. well being the first time trying out hot spring, it was so comfortable n refreshing tt we din wanna stop! when we left we were so happy we tried it.. no regrets.. but it was a pity my mum din!

our first lunch in Korea after hotspring --our fav Korean Ginseng Chicken! this is a must try:)






us with the bottles of ginseng lining the whole ginseng chicken eatery..



us along the Cheongyecheon stream, a man-made stream in Seoul where a lot of people like to take long strolls and spend time with their loved ones..i find it a bit similar to our boat quay n clarke quay..haaha

daddy and mummy! cheers!

us with the ctc representative on the extreme left (marcus), korean tourguide (michelle) and super nice and hardworking photographer cum tourguide's assistant ( ah june)

our dear tourgrp mate wanna take photo with our 32cm strawberry n green tea ice cream:) haha..

here comes our first dinner of the trip.. steamboat with lots lots of vege and mushroom n e special kimchi dumpling.. coz its the first dae , our dae ended earlier with the tourguide bringing us back to the hotel and me continuing to buy more faceshop at the coex mall beside the hotel:)

next dae started with trip to nami island! remember winter sonata? haha quite a standard film site to be included in a korea tour package rite? haha .. but i was still excited abt going there:) to see the nice nice treess.. though they will look different from that in the show coz it was filmed during autumn and winter:( haha

cable car ride "thrilling" but its jus super worth it to enjoy the breathtaking view of the scenery while having a sip of nice coffee n tea!!~~
