Gapyeong Day Tour

This day was a very long day. The last time we went to Gapyeong it was just Naminara the whole day. We even rode the local train back. That was a very tiring ride. This time we find out that after Nami there are other places we can go to – like Petite France. 

To get there, we get the train to Cheongnyangni then transfer to the ITX to Gapyeong . We were late for the 9:30 train by just seconds. We get into the next train an hour later. We ate breakfast in the Mister Donut located just before the transfer thingy to ITX.
 

When we get to Gapyeong station, we learned that there’s a tour bus now around Gapyeong. The fare is 6,000 Won. It is a hop-on hop off bus. It was a good deal. The only problem with it is that it is always loaded. We were always standing. We get into the first bus that arrived and settled in standing. The next bus is due for another hour.

There are no vendors now selling food or anything on the ferry terminal. There are less food vendors around the island too.

This is Nami Island now.

We went around the island then catch the ferry to get to the bus stop. We were thinking maybe this time we might sit down. But we didn’t.

Next stop for us is La Petite France

The place is fine. It is inspired by France and the Little Prince. There’s a theatre on top of the hill. We could have catch a show but there’s no time for that. 

We have still another stop. While standing at the bus I searched for the Garden of the Morning Calm on Instagram and the place looks promising especially at night. It is winter time. How could the garden still in business, right?

Before coming inside, We eat this hotdog covered with fries. We miss this too.

There was this cat  that we feed too. The lady on the store also feed it too.

Inside the garden is just barren, no flowers as it is the winter still.

 When the evening comes, it will be a different story. They will lit up the place and this is how things will look like.

 

The night was very cold. One time we just hang out in this souvenir shop to get warm. There's a heater inside. We left before 7PM just to be sure we can catch the bus where we still stand. There's already a long queue when get into the stop so we got crammed up in front of the bus. It brought us into Cheongpyeong Station where we could catch the ITX back to the city. When we returned at Angguk station we were very hungry. We did not eat proper lunch that day. We were lucky to be able to get into a Korean Barbecue place before it closes. We got really tired. My body ached the next day.
