Seoul-Far-So-Good for third day!

On the third day, 27th July, morning, we checked out Oriental hotel and had our quick breakfast. We then headed to Jeju International Airport.

We had our first surprise for the day,BAD WEATHER! all our flight was stopped from flying to Seoul, jeju was badly hit by the summer rain and fog, all the flight was ordered to be landed. Since we could not do much, we walked around the airport and stay in an internet cafe provided by airport.

We've waited for 1 and 1/2 hour and we finally get to board a flight on 10.15am. Here comes our second surprise, we were told that Korean Air KE2232 was overbooked and the airline has overlooked 7 of our teammate. It was a shocked to everyone whereby any 7 of us has to stay put in Jeju island until the next flight taking off in 11am.

It was a huh-hah then, without much delay, David intervened in and liase with the airline to get possible boarding for everyone. The effort was wasted, Alice, Tang, paul, Ben, pauline and two other folk was forced to stay put at jeju until next the flight. We came to agreed, 23 person will take a first flight to Seoul and another 7 will take the second flight on 11am, the conflict has finally put it aside.

It was a tiring day and many of us started to murmur about the breakdown in our itinerary. Almost an hour later, 23 of us reached and waited a Incheon airport. Weather at seoul are cooling and windy, beared with the starving feeling, we were patiently waiting for our 7 fellow teammate to be return.

An hour later, the 7 returns and united, we were then told to board the bus and heading to our first destination in Seoul, Everland. It was indeed a frustrated moment when everyone has to bear with the starveness even after long waiting for the transit. The travelling distance to everland takes approximately 90min.

Without much traffic jam, we reaches Everland in around 1 hour time. The first thing everyone does was get our stomach filled up. As expected, foods are not cheap in Everland, minimum spending on a rice meal was about 8900 won, which is equivalent to SGD15.

We don have choice but to have a quick meal. Such a pain to us.

We were then exploring the huge everland, the first program we found was a presentation of Amazon. it is about an aerobatical performance. The second was an amusing Sea-lion performance. Third, we found a comic artist and i subscribed a comical portrait for Fun. Times flies, it was 5.15pm after we got our portrait done.

It was only 45min left and we really could not do much. We snap-shot few picture and meet everyone at 6pm and heading for our dinner for the day.
