“A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.”

6.30 am, decided to wake up since need to be at bus terminal to meet 3 new travel buddy i meet the night earlier. Since the Airport Limo Bus is just 10 minutes in front of my hostel, so i decided to take it easy. Felling lucky that time since no need to be rush. The Airport Limo Bus terminal is not a big terminal, it was just small stop in front of the only Casino Hotel in Heaundae Beach which is
Paradise Hotel Busan. The bus stand is just right opposite the hotel which you noticed easily.

I was the last to reach at the bus stand while Ivanka (Russian Girl) Tiff & Buff (Portuguese & American couple) been there since 6.40 am. Since the bus will reach only at 6.57 am, i walk outed from my guesthouse at 6.50 am. As usual, sharp 6.57 am, the bus arrived at it cost us 8000 won (
if not mistaken) and it takes 45 minutes to the Gimhae Domestic Airport. We not talked much since we pretty tired from night before,so we toke a chance to take a nap. The bus driver turn the lights on as we reached the airport. But Buff and Tiff still in their dream. Ivanka woke them up since we only left 30 minutes to check in. As we arrived at the door, we run as hard as possible as we don't want to missed the flight. But i can say it was amazing, the staff at the counter saying that the check in counter and gate closed at the same time which is only 10 minutes before take off. 4 of us are weird how they handle that. But when we walked to the gate, everything make sense, as the counter and the gate is only 3 minutes walking and also this is only Domestic Terminal.

We will stay in jeju island for 4 days and 3 nights. So, the night before, Ivanka made a decision to stay in the caravan, which is really new experience for me. So she decide to book a caravan hotel via
Booking.com. The place name is
Dome Leisure. But as we reach jeju, we found out to travel in jeju is really hard since Jeju Island is quite huge than what we expected. So we decided to rent a car. Here a tips, don't rent a car with rent company which have their booth inside the airport. Since i'm staying in Korea for sometimes, i have korean number which easy for me to call anywhere in korea. So as i'm using my friend Mr.Google, we managed to find a really good and famous car rent company. The company is
SIXTH CAR RENTAL. Even-though the company is big and well known, the price is still far cheaper than all the company which inside the airport. What you need is, walked to Gate Number 5, then you will saw a bus with sixth car rental logo, just tell the driver bring you the office. Once you reach the office, the staff will welcomed you like you ever meet them before. Since 4 of us shared together, we rent a Hyundai car for 180,000won for 4 days plus insurance. It was way more cheaper. What you need is only your international license. Then pick your car. And they also will install the GPS with your preferred language. And also, in south korea, the GPS works even with the location phone number. Especially tourist area. So don't worry, in Jeju, even volcano had their own phone number(
which is Tourist Information Booth phone number).
After we managed to settled everything, we straight headed to
Cheonjiyon Waterfalls. If you guys want some info or history about it just click the place name since it was really long to explain. So we spend almost 2 hours since it also include trekking. And the view is really amazing. The weather also great(
turn worst at night). After the trekking, we really tired, since we need wake up really early in the morning the next day plus our hotel is on the other side of the island, we decided to have an early dinner. We went to city center to find a food. We stop at fried chicken restaurant which turn the best fried chicken restaurant i had been. We just order 3 main dishes but we got so many free food. Such popcorn,biscuit and also orange juice for free. Of course the cold water is free and you're welcomed to refill it so many times. We thought it was done, but when all the food came, we got a big bottle of pepsi also for free. We really enjoyed the food and the hospitality which provided by owner of that restaurant, After our early dinner, we went straight to check in and called day off. We will start an early day tomorrow morning. To be continued............
