Korea (23) - Day No.5: Everland Resort

It was Day No.5. The weather was surprisingly good and even tour guide was surprised.

View from our hotel in the outskirts. For that day we were heading to Everland Resort. I realized there's another one called Lotte something. Anyway,..

Looking forward for my next trip home to Kuala Lumpur.

Korea (23)

Hi folks.

I have come back from Kuala Lumpur. Every time I go back I truly feel deeply refresh in both mental n' physical. That kind of relaxation. That kind of love. That kind of laughter. That kind of companion. So real.

Photobucket

I am always looking forward going back to Kuala Lumpur or Kuching. That is where I belong! No matter where am I. I shall never forget my root.

So it was day no.4 in Korea and we stopped by somewhere for a short while after our Teddy Bear Farm before heading to our next accommodation. Basically that place is a lighthouse. It is constructed rather high above the sea level.

We all just stopped by for another quality time together.

Photobucket

Quality time.

Know what. At time it doesn't matter where you're at. But. Who you are actually with at that moment or place that matters. You can be in Disney Land yet having a angry face on your face because the person you're with is not the person who you're comfortable with.

Photobucket

I can be having a happier moment just drinking cup of coffee at mamak with my dearest-kaki(s).

Photobucket

Sometime I feel grateful with this handful of kaki(s) placed in my life apart from my loved one, Whitney. They ain't the BESTest friend(s) yet they are the SPECIAL-est friend(s). That's why I always looking forward to go back Kuala Lumpur. All my beloved one are there!

It was truly sorry to hear incident happened on both Joanne and Carolyn. Bad things happen. Life ain't smooth. Please believe so that we are all righteous. We are righteous. Offer a thanks giving for the peace of life. The rest, materials can be get back in no time.

I had my second camera in 2 years time. We shall never fall short of blessing.

I understand today's post is rather non-related to Korea. Anyway, it's for you all pleasure reading. And I believe my photos can help me to do the talking.

That was our dinner on day no.4 and we called that a day.

I Am In Kuala Lumpur

Finally I can leave my Korea trip post aside and dig into something else for one or two days. I, myself is getting a little fed up with it. However! I must carry on until the very last day of my Korea trip. Just bear with me for another few weeks. xD

Photobucket

Last night was totally a basket trip all the way to Johor Bahru. Usually I can arrive at Larkin Terminal like 8:30pm - 9:00pm. And was able to catch the 9pm bus back to Kuala Lumpur. The journey to KL takes about 4 hours. Which mean if I take 9:00pm bus and I can arrived T.B.S like 1:00am.

1:00am is not that bad to ask my friend, Andy to pick at T.B.S.


I suspect it was due to F1 which is holding today leads a truly BAD TRAFFIC JAM. The time I got myself to Larkin Terminal it was already 9.45pm.

No choice but to catch the 10:30pm bus. Poor Andy. He has to wait for me until so late in the night. I arrived 2.30am safe and sound!

Worse is. He's is WORKING today. My bad. My bad. I shall treat him a good meal if possible. 

Photobucket

So folks. I am home again. 1 Malaysia, Truly Asia.

Continuing from the previous post, day no.4 destination visited after Mt. Sorak, the Teddy Bear Farm.

Photobucket
Photobucket

From the name itself can tells this is a place where you can really see many teddy bears from tiny to large and from the inside to the outside.

Photobucket

The place excites the girls especially Whitney. Heard she has a huge teddy bear from her room mate now. What the..

Nothing much really I can write for this. The photos can do the talking themselves from here. Basically, it is just teddy bears.

Photobucket

I shall fast forward a bit here. We headed to one of the infamous fish market after Teddy Bear Farm. Alright, very sadly to tell that nothing is interesting there. Plainly just local dishes for you'al to taste about. We didn't eat anything. Ain't look pleasure to our eyes. Lol, Korean food.

I seriously reckon to climb to the simmit of Mt. Sorak. It ain't that difficult.

Photobucket

My advice to girls is: Do not wear skirts. Too bad for Elaine. She could not climb to the summit with us. Dumped her down there to look after at our belongings.

The view from the summit of the Mt. Sorak...

Kinda impressed with the girls. They actually made their way to the summit. Elaine was bad. hm..

Photobucket

And there's a Korean flag at the summit. Funny thing was that. There was even merchandise selling at the summit. The person crafted you a medal on the spot once you reach to the summit. Due to the price he offered, we turn it down. Well. We do not need any medal. We have photos as proof!

We conquered Mt. Sorak!

Photobucket

And we returned to the ground. It was time for lunch again.

Photobucket

Again, need not mention much. Lunch was superbly DELICIOUS! That's about our Day no.4 morning.

As for the second half of the day, .. our destination was,

It is day no.4. Time truly flies. On that day, we visited Mount Sorak which is located in a national park after our lovely breakfast. I believe Mt. Sorak could have been one infamous tourist spot. I've happened to roughly browsed through the internet about it. Tourists do come here all the time.

Photobucket

Had a short briefing with the tour guide together with the group. That's how big our group was. Smaller group the better, huh? If you really happen to visit Mr. Sorak, do get yourself to the peak of the mountain. I'll do more about it in my next few posts.

It ain't difficult. There's actually cable car provided and stop at the half of the mountain.

Photobucket

Before getting ourselves to the cable car, there were already so much sight seeing around the place. The main thing here is the temple(s). We didn't visit the temple as were not really interested.

Photobucket
Photobucket

Quickly we took a few photographs and visited some other spots around the place. It's a tourist spot. So basically there souvenirs shop around, cafeterias... and so on. Those common tourist spot thingy.

Photobucket

Had some fun around and we decided to head back for cable car. The every ticket purchased for cable car ride has a time stamped onto it. Board the cable car only according to the time written on the ticket. We were like an hour early.

Photobucket

Again. Did some photographs while waiting for our turn for cable car ride. That river is just right in front of the cable car landing spot (?).

It was so clean!

Photobucket

Cable car ride up to the mountain Sorak. It took only like few minutes. And one cable car can take up like.. 30 people?

That's many!

Photobucket

Continue to walked on following the trail to a higher spot. That's not the peak of the mountain yet.
