Day 4: Autumn Colours @ Nami Island ...

Good bye, Jeju! We boarded the domestic flight back to Seoul & were chauffeured for 90mins to the ferry terminal. We waited for a ferry to cross the waters to reach Nami Island (南怡岛). While onboard the ferry, i admired the lush greenery along the river bank & love the autumn colours...

Approx 10mins later, Billy ~ our photographer got us tog for a grp photo-shoot at the main entrance. Paul started rattling & asked us to follow him... 3 of us trailed behind, while absorbing the lush greenery. The walk was pretty long; we stopped at a junction where we saw rows of neatly planted trees. For those who had watched 'Winter Sonata', would rmbr Junxiang & Youzhen (the leads) who cycle romantically on a bicycle down this path. Well well, there isin't a tiny bit of romance when u r wif a package tour!!! We were given a time to return to main entrance... so how much time u tink can cycle ard?

Our grp parted here & we gals ventured on our own. We saw 3 diff colours ... not all the deep crimson colours of maples yet. There were rows of yellow, green & red... it's like a colour platette. I'm still a bit disappt that i dun c the 2 straight rows of reds. Well, maybe i could compose some contrasts then. We walked around Nami Island & i observed it's flooded wif tourists ... The Hallyu (korean wave ) is scary, juz 1 drama to popularise tis lovely island. It's too commercialise in my eyes. If less ppl disturb the flora & fauna, isn't it more natural?

Bef we realised, our 1.5hr at Nami was reaching ... we ran back to the entrance & that's a long run! I was sweating!!! Along the way, we still stopped to snap more pics!

Upon getting back to main land, half of our grp ppl were Missing! Ooh, 20 of them missed our ferry. Aft gathering everyone, we were sent to Chuncheon's Myeongdong street. There's still abit time for some shopping bef dinner in the same area.

Dinner was BBQ chicken wif cabbage, rice cakes & fried rice... after which, we retreated back to our mountain resort ~ Hanwah 100% Hotspring Resort.
