Teddy Bear Museum

It’s been some time since I wrote on my last Korea trip
Hey~ Don’t judge me!
I skipped to Seoul part to churn up an article on Korean Ginseng Chicken
I was craving so badly for it and decided to write about that first

Looking at my speed, I need at least a third blog entry to complete my Jeju Island adventures
Or even a fourth entry is possible
Hee~

See how they tried to earn my money at Teddy Bear Museum
This is soooo cute~!
I was contemplating whether I should bring one home and add to my overcrowded bed
I didn’t in the end ㅠㅠ

Wow you can see how my dark hair grows out from this photo
The black and brown is in so much contrast
Note to self to dye my hair when I reached Seoul!

This looks like a family photo isn’t it!
Papa bear, why didn’t you look at the camera >.<
These bears mark the end of the indoor Teddy Bear Museum
Now to embrace the rain and go outdoors!!!

This photo was taken from so far away, we couldn’t hear each other shout “1, 2, 3”
I hope these bears caught fish
ㅋㅋㅋ

We went GS25 looking for drinks after the museum tour
I had to get this drink because of cute GD
I still recalled I brought this orange flavored carbonated drink all the way back home in my Nov trip last year

I bought a postcard to write to myself from Teddy Bear Museum
Luckily we found a post office in Jeju Island
I could send myself a different postcard from Seoul
Heh~

The Jeju Island mascot is like everywhere, in different sizes
We were initially worried we couldn’t find one to take pictures with
Turned out there were simply toooooo many
LOL

Totally love this picture!
Look at our SNSD legs XD

We walked past Lotte Hotel again and decided to go in have a look
There were these big big banners above our heads
Super Junior!!!!!

Another Jeju Island mascot located in Lotte Hotel premises
The sun was starting to set and I could hardly open my eyes
~_~

Off to look for Cheonjeyeon Falls
It wasn’t too hard navigating from our hotel

You probably can’t see from this angle
The red colour bridge has a lot of deity looking drawings on it
The vast sky looks like it can go on forever
Like Like Like!

Myself on the bridge
And the wind forever blows whenever I’m trying to take a photo
Big fat face without hair to conceal )=

There!
The magnificent Cheonjeyeon Falls!
I can’t really express how pretty and surreal this place is
You just have to see and experience with your own eyes

This marks the end of day 1!
Ok I think I was wrong previously
I need at least another 3 blog entries to round up my entire Jeju Island trip!

Stay tuned folks~

We arrived in Jeju Island and it was raining
Not surprising at all for a place that has only 30plus days worth of sunny days

We took off looking for the bus stop once we got clearance from immigrations

I love taking pictures of mailbox in every country
Don’t you think they somehow stand for the unique culture of each country?

We’ve arrived at our hotel!
Hooray!
The accommodation we picked in the middle of the night, after reading through countless reviews on websites

The room is big enough for three people!
We played Scissors Paper Stone and I won
The huge bed was all MINE!
Teehee~ (Rolls Around

This photo is so funny
I was trying to make the entire bathroom look big
Ended up I squeezed myself outta the bathroom leaving only my arms in there with the camera

The hotel outer view
Most of the buildings in Jeju Island are not high rise building
So no worries about view being blocked
Anyway the hotel looks very newly renovated

In terms of service, the receptionists were super helpful!
They offered advice on our day 2 route and even helped us book an individual car for next day

We checked in and started roaming around the hotel vicinity
Rain was so heavy that umbrellas were useless
Don’t ask me why I didn’t bring my raincoat out
I totally forgot about its presence
It was lying happily in my luggage >.<

We passed by Lotte Hotel and decided to go in for a visit
It is at a total different level from our hotel
The renovations were so posh and high class
But it’s alright, our hotel was warm and cozy!

The following dishes were ordered when we weren’t in a very hungry condition
As expected, we couldn’t finish them (Coughs

This saba fish was so delicious
There were few fish bones, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside
Most importantly, it’s downright fresh!

This is the most anticipated dish of all
Abalones, clams, mussels, scallops, prawns and so much seafood that I’ve seen for the first time
There were some we didn’t dare to eat… … … ORZ

A must eat when we come to Jeju Island: Abalone Porridge
Abalones are caught by women who risked their lives without diving equipments
The taste is truly heaven ㅠㅠ

Ready to dig in!!!
You’d understand why we couldn’t finish everything from the look of the table right?
Such a pity 엉엉~

With our stomach filled, we left for our first sightseeing spot of the day!

Teddy Bear Museum! Go Go!

We saw a newly wed the moment we stepped in~
I have no idea why my head looks so big in this picture
Reminds me of “The Dog” series
LOL

Even the staircase hallway has such pretty paintings

Marilyn Monroe~
You can even spot her white panty from the other angle
Cute! XD

There’s this huge bear we can take pictures with at the souvenir store
Trust me, we took more than one picture
Heh~

Teddy Bear Museum in Jeju Island is really huge
I guess I’ll continue with the rest another day
Stay tuned folks~ ^^

Jeju Island Continued…

Jeju Island, I’m Finally Here!
