Jeju Island - Day 2 Day Tour

This is a delayed post. Cos my modem spoil or rather the adapter spoil. All thx to TW who helped me to sent it for servicing, it's up now again! Using my old modem i can't upload pics which i dunno why???

Jeju Day Tour is very packed, but we did cover a lot of places. Like a total of 6! We met our tour guide UNO at 8am then we proceed to pick up other members b4 gg to the tea musuem call O'sulloc. There were 3 other grp of ppl, from taiwan de, Japan and one local. UNO can speak, mandrin, spanish, japanese, korean and english! Meng!

We arrived at the museum at ard 9 plus then walk ard. The museum is divided into 3 parts, the tea pot exhibition, the tea house and the tea plantation. The tea sold there is not really cheap! and they sell tea related product such as tea cosmetics also hahaha.

The museum is not very big but there is a lot of showcase of teddy bears! After 1 hr we left. We wanted to go one place recc by the 天书 but is a bit difficult to go so we ended up in another place call the 新雨城. This place is almost full house cos a lot of tour bus stops here also. We ordered the 济洲岛名产-黑猪肉! Unlike 黑鸡,黑猪肉 is not black in colour, the colour is the same as normal pork. Actually i cannot tell the difference but is still very nice! Korean BBQ is godly!

A级黑猪肉 - raw
