Day 24 ( Seoul Trip Day 2 )

Today is the 13th Sep and it's my second day in Seoul!! Today we plan to go to Lotte World the whole day! haha.. It is a recreation complex and it consists of a large indoor theme park and an outdoor amusement park. Woke up at around 9.30am, had breakfast in the dormitory before taking the Metro train from Jongno 3(sam)-ga stationto Jamsil Station!
Feeling bored.. haha..
On the way, we saw a shop selling caps and the girls started buying them!
Finally reached the Jamsil station! Walking towards the Lotte World..
The tickets!
Entering the complex
This is the Giant Loop: A speeding loop train that makes 360 degree revolution
Our 1st game! The Drunken Basket: Spinning basket in the air that can hold up to 108 people!
Our 2nd game!! This is the Conquistador, an extreme thrill in a swinging boat that swings up to 75 degrees.
Taking a look at the Conquistador:
Just before the thrill starts! Seriously, this ride really makes u feel like falling.. solely the action of free fall with gravity.. makes my heart jump out at times..
Our 3rd game!! The Adventures of Sindbad! Walking along the path..
Waiting area
Where am i? Not fair.. the photographer must be inside!Tada!!
Initially we thought it was not really a thrilling ride, but our "boat" suddenly just fall like a roller coaster! Shocked us.. haha..
Inside is really nice.. all the efforts in making this tunnel is really commendable. I can't take photos here because we are always constantly on the move, but the scenes there is really nice!! I only manage to take a decent photo.. eh..
Oh ya.. they also have this Natural Ecology experience in Lotte World now! It includes the nature hall, the insect hall and tha plant hall! Looking at one of the creatures.. maggots??
Creepy crawlies..
haha.. we went into the butterfly room!!
And guess what.. a butterfly fall in love with me!! See it's climbing up my jeans trying to get close to me??
Chance upon this coin making machine! haha.. and i've decided to spent 1000 won to get a souvenir of the coin!
On our way to the next game, the World Carnival started! It's a spectacular parade show and some of the routes are restricted during the parade..
Children's fav.. haha..
This is our 4th game! Desperdos!! Hmm.. it's something like everyone is sitting on an artifical horse and trying to shoot the screen together.. haha..
Wow.. i must be shaking too violently! Did i see a middle finger?
Our lunch in Lotteria!
Trying to asked for maps
The Garden Stage is performing
Haha.. next, we've decided to go to the outdoor theme park first! Was afraid it would close in the evening..
Beautiful castle..
Our 5th game of the day! The Bumper car game called the Metro Madness!! We really waited for 1.5 hours before it's our turn.. really a test of patient as well..
Haha.. don't have time to enter this! It's another long que..
Ah! Our 6th game with the Swing Tree!! just spinning around a tree on a leaf chair.. haha..
Seems like a wave?? Our 7th game! The Waikiki Wave where there are unpredictable twisting and turning action!
I was so embarrassed because a kid beside me saw me wiht my eyes closed..

Magician entertaining the long wait of people!
Sunset is coming.. haha.. cute!
Welcome to the 9th game that is indoor.. The Aeronauts Balloon Ride!
Artistic pic taken by me! A stunning view of the indoor Lotte World from the hotair balloon:
It's really a nice experience sitting on the hotair balloon.. nice view.. haha.. next we had our 10th game! The Revelation of Pharaoh! It has a long walk.. but the things inside is really magnificant.. very realistic.. and very beautiful... no time to take pictures, but u should really go in and experience it yourself..
Ah! the ride itself is the best.. really like the view inside.. i think this is really well done and lots of effort are being put into making the tunnel.. there is even a lazer show in it! I can't take pictures because the ride is always moving.. all the photos i took is very blur..
Haha.. taken by a Japanese tourist! Thanks! Hmm.. not willing to buy the photo, i took it myself.. haha..
A very nice and shining souvenir shop.. This is our 11th game: The French Revolution, intense high speed train that makes 360 ~ 540 degree twists and turns.. I was not willing to take it at first, but nevertheless, i will go through thick and thin with u.. ( at the expense of my heart falling out... ) :P
Taking a look at the train:
Finally completed the scary ride..
Our 12th game! haha.. something to relax ourselves from the trama we had just now..
Eh.. is this appropriate? i seems kiddy leh..
Taking a group photo! Let's take a look at the magnificant castle..
Had hotdog for my dinner.. hmm.. food here is indeed expensive! I'm not willing to buy water even and guess what, i requested water from this guy who sells hotdog to me, and he poured water from his own water bottle into mine!!! * GLUP* Very helpful.. thanks.. but i don't dare to drink.. haha..
My dinner! In the end i walked all the way back indoor to get some water.. :P
Our 13th game, the World Monorail! Tour ride across Lotte World~
Some people in the dark..
Imprisonment!
Our 14th game! The Jungle Adventure!
This is really fun.. we're sitting on a rubber round boat and being carried on water alone!! Haha.. all the splashes around us makes is really enjoyable and fun! And we manage to go the second time with the help of the game assistant! Our 15th game, and it's the last game! The Flume Ride where we explore the jungle filled with dinosaurs!
The boat itself.. haha.. in fact we don't really care the dinosaurs because there is a fall waiting for us at the end! You know.. that kind with a splash!! And Li Shi was so kind to sit in front of me and shield me from the water!
This is really a great day for us.. Fantastic lake park surrounded by gorgeous landscapes and popular rides.. haha.. we're dead tired when we're going back to our dormintory!
Yaya.. and i'm the one taking the photos.. haha.. Thanks girls for the company in the Lotte World!! I truly enjoyed myself.. and i guess we all did.. :) Tomorrow will be even a better day for us!!
