We woke up to a snowy morning. It was my very first time experiencing real snow falling from the sky. I couldn't describe how beautiful it was, the scene was just amazing! Imagine walking down the street with mild snow trapping all over your beanie and coat.. goodness (I'm missing it already.)! I felt blessed because it snowed on the right day. The weather just made my visit to Nami Island an extraordinary experience.
I really wanted to take a nice photo under the beautiful weather but we were in a rush to catch our shuttle bus. Almost late for that as there were too many unexpected things happened in the morning, I had slight diarrhea, hunted for more pantyhose as my legs were freezing and went to grab coffees to warm ourselves so yeah.. Definitely a rushy morning.
Reached here after 1.5 hours of ride! It was 11:00 am in the morning and still snowing.
Despite of the strong wind, we stood at the outer part of the ferry.. just to capture a photo lolol
Okay, this is how Nami Island looks like. I took tons of photos, so yup, gonna spam this post with some of it. Sadly we could only stay there until 3:30 pm or else we could have seen the night view of this island as well. Seriously wished the shuttle bus could have stayed longer because 4 hours didn't seem to be enough to explore the whole island. And I wouldn't know when I would have the chance to come back...
This thing was the savior of my day. The cold could be unbearable when you've been outdoor for hours. Nami Island was quite crowded. Everyone just gathered at the fire to warm themselves up. I was freezing all the way and whenever I found one, I would be like "Go there!"
Snow accumulated on the rocks.
The main reason I've taken this picture, was to show the partly frozen pond in my background.
Yes, the weather was this cold.
Oh look, ostriches running away from me HAHAHAH They might seem to be scared of us.. but nah they were not at all! They reacted curiously when people were tryna take a selfie with them and these monsters just kept attacking people.. not sure if they wanted a kiss or whatever.. but they just kept stretching their necks towards everyone.
Took one photo when they were far behind.
I was trying to interact with them a little, then this crazy thing thought I tried
to feed or something and wanted to attack the cute bunny mitten.
I tried so hard to capture this thing but it just moved here and there.
In case you don't know what's inside of this pancake, there are brown sugar, honey and peanuts. It tastes sweet, and looks like the normal pancakes you could get anywhere. Try once, and you would definitely like it.. Unless you hate sweet stuff.
This small amount costed 25,000 won. The portion was really small, seriously not
so worthy compared to those dakgalbi restaurants in Malaysia.

Daniel thought the scenery was great here and he offered to snap a few photos for me.
Gigantic statue in breastfeeding posture.. What is this HAHAHA
Railway track ootd shot! No perfect ootd shot for this entire trip because everyday I had to wear so many layers.. kinda gave up many nice outfits and just wrapped myself up with thick layers and coat.

After hours of exploration, we stopped by Sonata cafe to grab hotteok (Korean pancake).
Grilled Hotteok: 1,500 won
Normal Hotteok: 1,000 won

I guess I have too many photos to post.. and I cant even decide which one to go with, therefore I'll just put them here. Special thanks to Daniel for being a patient photographer.
This doesn't look like a candid but it is a candid.
Not sure who made the heart on the ground but it looked lovely so hehe selfie time!
Alright, just an hour before we left this place, Daniel and I decided to take our lunch here at this restaurant located near the Namiseom dock called Chuncheon Dakgalbi. Chuncheon Dakgalbi was one if the must-try-food in our itinerary but not this one near Nami Island. We made a huge mistake by thinking that this was the one.. But nevermind, we were extremely hungry.
so worthy compared to those dakgalbi restaurants in Malaysia.
That's all for Nami Island. Simply like this picture taken by Daniel (although the quality is just moderate) Stay tuned for the next post.. which I am trying to finish as soon as possible!
