We took a cab from Shinsegae shopping center..

After you exit from APEC house, will see the pavilion and lighthouse

HAzy as the rain has just stopped.

Could not get good shots

The whole trip takes only around half an hour to one hour

saw the Mermaid statue while walking from Dongbaekseom Island to Haeundae BEach

We walked over to Haeundae Beach and saw people getting ready for the sand festival in Busan

korean busan free and easy: taejongdae park

The operation time and price of the tram tickets.
I did not manage to take the bus as I was there quite early in the morning..
Intent to catch the sunrise but it was raining yesterday and weather reports said that there are haze.
Be prepared to walk a lot if you are not talking the tram.
My phone estimated we walked around 15km..
Good morning exercise, take a good breakfast before you start on the long walk.
Wear good walking shoes.
Recommended you to go around sunrise or sunset because I did saw some fantastic photos by other bloggers.
Enjoy the fresh air and nice scenery.

Still hazy

There is a steep and a gentle path.

We only saw the direction for the gentle path after we finish the steep path!!!

Singapore Eats : ARbite

Meetup with some ex students for brunch or maybe lunch..

was not very crowded at lunch.

I ordered the chicken, which was tender and juicy.

My student's breakfast serving seems quite big and they did enjoy their breakfast. It was quite worth it too, at around $15.

The dessert which was mango meringue was just normal..

The interiors is simple and comfortable.

Good place for a good chat with friends

Address: 66A Serangoon Garden way

Is located at the row of shophouse where HSBC is located.

Opposite the bus stop.

The restuarant is located at the second floor so look out for the small door which lead you to the restaurant.

Korea free and easy : Busan food

Tried out Korea KFC.

However, only ordered some snacks.

Calamari and tapioca chips and hot chocolate.

Jagalchi Fish Market

The seafood is quite cheap.. Each Abalone is 4000 won, Live Octopus 10000 won.

just choose a stall and buy fresh seafood, they will bring you to an eatery upstairs where the seafood will be processed and cooked.

Total bill including other seafood, and side dishes and cooking is 42 000 won.

You can choose between eating sashimi, steamed or other cooking method. This is one of my sister's favorite meal in Korea. Fresh seafood and fabulous side dishes.
