Everland

So today, to celebrate our anniversary, we went to Everland! Everland is a disney-like theme park, the biggest in Korea. It has themed lands, including a zoo, a garden area, and the general theme park rides and concessions.

The journey there and especially the journey back was a hassle. The way there we had to take a long bus to Yongin bus terminal and then another bus from it to Everland. The way back was a bigger hassle, because we took a bus to the Suwon train station (which took FOREVER) and then had to take a short bus to the bus terminal, a long distance bus to Anseong, and THEN our local bus to our little town area. It was almost like 3-4 hours!

Anyway, Everland itself was pretty interesting, but it started to get a bit hot and the crowds were pretty huge, since it's a Saturday. We walked through the zoo area and saw lots of cute and interesting animals, and we could even feed some birds in one area. After that, we went to the flower garden, which was filled with lots of beautiful tulips but filled with lots of crowds as well. We had lunch in this fast food type place - a chicken burger and a galbi burger with orange juice. Their burgers are pretty tiny compared to American jumbo ones, but pretty tasty. We weren't able to ride the rides because the lines were insane, but we did go to some stores, and they had some pretty unique and interesting things there (see the pics) we had fun with, and we also stopped by a candy store and picked up some candies as well. On the way back from our super long trip, we stopped by at a small restaurant in the bus terminal and got some kimbaps, one cheese and one tuna, they were pretty good actually.

I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story. To see many more pictures, click this link.
