I went to Yeosu with my friends to see the world expo thing (which was really interesting). I woke up reeeeaaaaly early (I found out later that Justin, my hostel manager, was wondering where I went even though I told him I'd be leaving early and coming back in a few days) and made my way to the train station to wait for my friend. The train ride was nice. I could see how the country side looked like in Korea. We had to switch trains near Mokpo but it was ok. The trains were quiet full because everyone was going to Yeosu.
When we arrived to the train station in Yeosu we took a taxi and went to search for our hostel. We left our stuff there and went back to the train station because the expo area was right next to it. The aftrenoon tickts weren't available yet so we went to eat first. There was a food stand where you could buy obentos. Yay for that! :D After we ate we went to the ticket line to wait.
Once inside the expo area we went to explore "the first floor" (notice there were many buildings and the area was outside. Only the pavillions were inside. Well, maybe I put a picture of the map here later). The Swiss pavillion was interesting and cool. You made a trip inside a mountain and and... yes, you'll see from the pics later. We just run from one pavillion to another. In the evening we went to see the Big O- show.
The next day we went to a light house near the expo area first. The aftrenoon tickets weren't yet available so we explored the area near it. We also visited a seaweed farm. It sounds strange but to me it was really interesting. One of the staff members explained me about the project, how the seas are in a bad condition and how we could help to maintain the balance in the seas. I don't think my friend was that interested but I was totally impressed by it. :D
When we got to the expo we went to the aquarium first. <3 I loooove aquariums! There were some ahjummas who thought I was my friends girlfriend. -____- But we kindly explained that we are just friends. :D Again we were just hanging around the area and we went to see different pavillions. But it was fun. And I could eat TAKOYAKI there <3 In the evening we watched a musical but sadly I couldn't understand much of it because they didn't speak english. -___- Of course.
It was time for us to go back to Seoul. We left really early in the morning, around 5am or so. Luckily we didn't have to change trains this time so I was able to sleep. ^^
My last day in Seoul. ;~~; I'll write about it soon!
