Seoul Trip Day 1

Seoul. Ahh i will never forget those days. I was so happy that my dream came true.

So my flight to Incheon, Seoul was at 11.30 p.m. by using Malaysia Airlines (MAS). It was Saturday, 28th September 2013. I bought the ticket around June, 3 months earlier because it was sold at really cheap. Usually the ticket would be RM1600++ but that time it's only like RM1200++. I went with my friend's family where they are 9 adult including me and 1 kid and 1 baby.

 Me, my sister and her daughter and mom before the departure..it was my first time traveling alone without my family

 Meals we had on plane

We arrived safely around 7.30 a.m. Seoul time. Malaysia only 1 hour behind with Seoul so it wasn't that difficult to adapt with the time actually.

Touchdown!!


Our luggage

Upon arrivals at Incheon, we took bus to Gimpo Airport as our flight to Jeju would be from there. We chose Eastar Jet Airlines because it was the cheapest. Flight to Jeju was at 1.35p.m and expected to arrive at 2.40-3.00 p.m. We also placed half of our luggage at the luggage storage in Gimpo because most of our time would be at Seoul. We planned this ahead of time and all of us have separated luggage for Jeju and Seoul. The luggage was charged according to the size of the bag and it's around 20,000++ won.

I don't remember what is the luggage storage name but it is near to this coffee shop.

After wandering around for hours, we finally checked in to Jeju Island. Half of our luggage already kept in the storage and we worried that the luggage we brought would still over the capacity but naahh it didn't.

After checked in

It took 1-hour flight from Gimpo Airport to Jeju and we chose Eastar Jet to fly there. Booked in advance and it costs around RM200++ return ticket. There was some slight delay and we finally arrived around 4 p.m. at Jeju. The weather at that time was quite terrible, rainy and windy so we just straight to our pension by using Taxi. I think it's already around 5-6 p.m when we arrived at the pension. The pension named Soldaewat (You may click here for your reference). It was booked by my friend's aunt (Maksu) and i remember it was totally affordable. Our plan was to stay at Jeju for 3 days 2 night. The house owner was very helpful because they helped to bring all of our luggage to the dorm. We did have a good rest after a hectic airport transfer. After settled down a little bit, me, Sarah and Maksu walked for a grocery shopping not far from the pension. The Jeju people was really nice even though they couldn't speak English. I bought Banana Uyu again and Sarah bought Strawberry Uyu. I must say that the banana is way better than the Strawberry. We had a good meal and that conclude our first night at Jeju.

To be continued...
