This is a view from the porch of our house. Almost everyday, my family and I, along with our dogs hang out at our porch before dinner. It’s the time of the day when winds pass by and the sun is setting. :)
I got sick today. Well, it actually started yesterday but I had no idea then. My body’s really in pain today. I thought I’d stay in bed the whole day to heal and rest but today turned out to be a productive sick day.
To make things better, our house hold helper bought me ice cream today because I wasn’t able to join my family for lunch out being sick and all.. and because I love ice cream!
That frustrating time when you’re in the middle of studying and your pen runs out of ink and you have no other pens so you have to go to a bookstore to buy one but have no way of going to a bookstore because you have no ride.
- Mama: Ano oras movie (Glee concert movie)? (what time is the movie?)
- Mia: download nalang pag labas ng download. Hindi daw maganda, nagflop pa. Tapos in 3D pa so mahal. (let's just download it when the download comes out. It wasn't nice and it flopped. It's also in 3D so it's (movie tickets) expensive.
- Mommy: nuod tayo! Maganda yun in 3D! (Let's watch! It's nice in 3D!)
- Mia: *..???..* ... dahil Kay Brittany (Heather Morris)? (*..???..* ... because of Brittany (Heather Morris)?
- Mommy: oo! (yes!)
Naminara Island. Yes, the very same place where the K-Drama “Winter Sonata” was shot.
To get to the island, you’ll have to go there by ferry. The travel to the island is less than 15mins, I think.
The station where people can travel through North and South Korea (including China, Russia and all the way to Europe) [somewhat] freely.
The supposed plans:
… but North Korea suddenly backed out the last minute.
Having studied the relations between North and South Korea in a subject in college, I didn’t really care about all these before but after having visit and hear from actual people from there, I have now appreciated [and understood] the importance of these things.. Very interesting!
After Dorsan Station, we went to the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel and to a building where you can see the view of North Korea. Pictures weren’t allowed to be taken in some points in these places so I didn’t bother to bring out my camera.
The Peace Bell Help Ring The Peace Bell “Those who are interested in ringing the Peace Bell, in the name of peace, unification, and hope, may purchase tickets at the below places: Ringing Time: Every Hour Sharp (10:00-17:00) Method of Ringing: Seven Strikes by a family or group Ringing Fee: 10,000 won per family or group Tickets are available at: Facilities Management Corporation Office” -Peace Bell Sign Steam Locomotive at Jangdan Station of the Gyeongui Line “The Steam Locomotive is a symbol of the tragic history of the division into North and South Korea, having been left DMZ since it got derailed by bombs during the Korean War. After having been recognized its historical value and having become Registered Cultural Heritage in 2004, it is exhibited at the present location. According to the train operator at that time, the train was backed due to the intervention of the Chinese Communist Forces on the way to Pyeongyang to deliver war materials and it was finally destroyed at Jangdan Station. More that 1,020 bullet holes of the locomotive and its bent wheels show the cruel situation at the time.” - sign This is honestly the most depressing part of the whole trip but still very much worth going to. Imagine, you in a place where such great tragedy happened and there are memorabilia’s and even sounds in loud speakers playing while you walk and examine artifacts. But, again, still very much worth visiting.
When you go deeper through Everland, you’ll find a place that’s very pretty. It’s like you’ve been transported to a different country. lol. :)
“Don’t you think it’s interesting? Every time you meet a person, you can’t predict whether this person will become your enemy or your friend. I think that is why all encounters make your heart flutter.”
