34th Day - Busan Day 1

Here's where the journey starts
Our school is advertised in the station
KTX Mini Store even though they sell more Hello Kitty stuff
Waiting for the train


We're taking KTX, the bullet train. It would took us to Busan in 2 hours where the regular Mugunghwa would take around 4 hours. It was far more expensive supposedly. But we got a good deal since there were 4 of us


I would say the interior is a little too small for such a 'luxurious' train



They even had stewardess selling goodies
Here's our picnic table


And thus, we arrived at Busan
Mind you... while at this trip, I often cannot stop long enough to snap a picture. So there might be some blurred ones or even random objects being snapped as I tried my best to capture stuff without stopping my tracks at all.
Also, I might get the places' names wrong... because I'm... me!



here's the Chinatown



And here's Yongdusan Park




We're going up and up and up the stairs to see Busan Tower

Busan Tower and areas around













Then we go down and down and down back to the previous park... it was starting to get dark already
SPRIS store... yeah 2PM
EXR store... Wonder Girls
I actually saw BSX store quite far from there... Big Bang! But my camera wasn't ready and my Seunghyun didn't look too good there... so yeah... I skipped that
Here, we got to shop alot... but I didn't spend too much... yay for me

Our 1st dinner. the much cheaper version of BonJuk. Also, Ahjumoni actually gave us an extra red bean porridge for free....




Our 2nd dinner was Dukbokki... but too hungry to get any picture
Here's Pusan Film Festival

Yellow Busan tower

At last, we were ready to hit the sack... or floor on this matter... this is the narrow alley leading to the Jjimjilbang



If asked what is the most unforgettable experience in Korea, I would say staying in Jjimjilbang.
This one, we had to pay KRW 5,500
We got to go into the public bath and spent the night.
That only was not something big. But to actually experience it was... wow... so public bath is where you got to see everyone in their full naked glory states. All women, of course... in the bathing area, you just have to take everything off and you're free to walk around from one hot pool to another. I was quite uncomfortable at first. But seeing everyone else was so easy about it, I adapted it. LOL... yeah... I walked around in nothing like a baby.
And at night, we all went to the sleeping area.
They had the light off already... but didn't stop us from taking pictures of course





This one was my first creation
The floor was hard and the pillow was harder... but well...
