Hello Kitty Cafe!!! ^_^

This post is mainly for girls, but guys can go to. As you can tell by the title of my post, THERE IS A HELLO KITTY CAFE!!!!!!! You don't know how excited I was when I came across it. I was in utter shock and would have probably died of happiness right there and then. I am a huge Hello Kitty fan and finding this jewel of a Cafe may be one of the best things to happen to me in Korea. I thought I should share this experience and let you guys know about the HK Cafe. Hopefully when you come to Seoul, you guys can go take a look. I think it's a wonderful thing to do with your friends. I hope this encourages some people to go take a look because it is the cutest thing in the world!!!! ^_^
It's nice to break from the norm and go find interesting places to visit like this.

*THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO HELLO KITTY CAFES. ONE IS IN SINCHON AND THE OTHER IN HONGDAE. HONGDAE IS THE BEST ONE OUT OF THE TWO. THE SINCHON ONE JUST DOESN'T LIVE UP TO IT'S HONGDAE COUNTERPART*

THIS IS THE SINCHON ONE







































AND NOW HERE ARE A COUPLE OF PICTURES FROM THE HONGDAE ONE. SORRY GUYS!! THEY AREN'T VERY CLEAR BECAUSE THE PICTURES FROM HERE I TOOK WITH MY ITOUCH CUZ I HAD FORGOTTEN MY CAMERA THAT DAY..T_T




























JEJU ISLAND

HELLO HELLO!!!!

I JUST GOT BACK FROM JEJU ISLAND THIS MORNING. IT WAS A LOT OF FUN ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS WITH FRIENDS. WE WERE VERY FORTUNATE THAT OUR FRIEND AYAKA HAD A FRIEND IN JEJU WHO PRACTICALLY COORDINATED ALL OUR TRIP. SHE EVEN HOSTED US AT HER HOUSE FOR 2 DAYS!!! ^_^

THE THING THAT ALWAYS AMAZES ME HERE IS THAT IF YOU KNOW SOMEBODY IN KOREA OR EVEN KNOW SOMEONE WHO KNOWS SOMEBODY IN KOREA, THEY ARE EXTREMELY NICE AND HOSPITABLE TO YOU. OUR FRIEND'S FRIEND'S PARENTS EVEN WENT TO SLEEP SOMEWHERE ELSE SO WE COULD HAVE THE HOUSE TO OURSELVES AND FEEL COMFORTABLE. THAT WAS SUPER NICE OF THEM.

SAMYANG BLACKSAND BEACH

NOW LETS START WITH WHAT WE DID AT JEJU. ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS WE DID WAS GO TO THE MANJANGGUL LAVA TUBE.














































WE THEN TOOK A FERRIE TO A SMALL LITTLE ISLAND WHERE WE RENTED BICYCLES. QUICK THINGS FOR YOU GUYS TO KNOW. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN EVER RIDING A SCOOTER OR AN ATV, GET AN INTERNATIONAL DRIVER'S LICENSE BEFORE YOU COME. YOU APPARENTLY CANNOT RENT ANY OF THOSE TWO WITHOUT A KOREAN ICENSE OR AN INTERNATIONAL LICENSE. I REALLY WISHED I HAD GOTTEN MINE WHEN I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY. T_T
















































































BY THE END OF THE DAY WE WENT TO GO EAT KOREAN BBQ!!!! YAY!! ^_^






THE NEXT DAY WE WENT TO THE TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM AND THE CHOCOLATE MUSEUM.





















































ALMOST RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO THE TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM IS THE CHOCOLATE MUSEUM. IT WAS PRETTY COOL.































THERE IS OTHER STUFF TO DO AT JEJU LIKE GO TO THE WATERFALLS, THE BEACH, GREEN TEA MUSEUM, ETC. I WASN'T ABLE TO TAKE MORE PICTURE BECAUSE MY SD CARD RAN OUT OF MEMORY. QUICK NOTE: BRING EITHER MANY SD CARDS FOR YOU CAMERA OR BUY AN SD CARD WITH A LOT OF GB SPACE. YOU WILL TAKE TONS AND TONS OF PICTURES!!! ^_^
