Saturday Escapade.

Yesterday, the weather was nice. Too hot alright, but it was perfectly bright and sunny (no sign of rain) that we had to go and visit some place. Chris and I both agreed that we shouldn't waste a perfect not-too-humid sunny day lying around the house and watching TV, so off we went to Everland, the nearest amusement park in our area.

The adventure starts with the ticket. A single one-day pass that lets you ride anything and everything you want costs 30,000 KRW or about $23, multiplied by two.. well, you do the math.



Here's the entrance.



Cable car anyone?



Behold, the scariest rollercoaster in Korea built entirely of wood. This was fun though it scared the hell out of me!



The parade.



One of their numerous floats.



Here's the stage where the laser show and fireworks display can be seen at night.



I love how they added smoke here. If I remember correctly, it wasn't there (the smoke I mean..) during my 7 previous visits.



I find this angle particularly funny that I just had to take a picture.. Ok, I know what you're gonna say.. "Me and my sick humor"...



That's my hand y'all! If Chris hadn't been so slow you might have seen 7 or 8 birds in my hand.



We stayed eventhough it was so late to watch this.



That's all everyone! Hope you had a great Saturday!!!

Hey this park is good! the mist is created by water sprayed high pressure.. they do it all the time in singapore to make the place cool, and where aircondition isnot poassible because of open air.

Those floats look great :)
we do have a amusement park in singapore but nothing scary or thrilling about it. Wooden roller coaster! i wouldnt dare!
