114th Movement

It's CHRISTMAS!!! And the lights and decorations, food and drinks are all well put up and prepared! I know I haven't posted anything about Korea yet, but give me some time, there isn't much free space left on my laptop...

But just for a brief summary, the trip was great, except that the plane ride was quite rough. Total of 8 days, which includes 24 meals, and all 24 meals have KIMCHI!!! And on the last day, guess what we learnt to make? KIMCHI!!!

The places we visited were great too, oh wait, I've got to tell you this: there is a road in Korea called gui lu (literally Ghost Road), and it's an uphill road. But the weird thing is that we were on the bus, and the bus driver turned off his engine and all that so the bus would be dormant, but the whole bus was moving UPWARDS!!! A bottle left on the ground wouldn't roll downwards but upwards as well while water splashed on the floor doesn't trickle downhill but uphill. Why is it so? The tour guide told us it's because nature has us fooled, the uphill is actually a downhill but because of man's involvement on that mountain, illusions galore! So according to the great nature, we are wrong.

I'll have other things to post about Korea soon, like how freaky the toilets are =P CIAO!!! And a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
