Bye Bye Chuncheon

 Finally...I got myself on the picture. Most of the time, I took the pictures of Eyra and Freya wherever we go. So, this time I asked Eyra to take a picture of me with her sister.
In front of Chuncheon station before departing back to Seoul (Jan. 23, 2013).

Since we still had 45 minutes or so, we decided to go to one of the restaurants there. Well, the kids wanted to have some ice cream.. 

Eyra was having her favorite chocolate while her sister was having a blueberry one.

I did not have any idea as to why they love ice cream even during this Winter. 

Eyra said that "we'd be warmer if we have ice cream" 

I guess she's a Korean, now. ^^

As a token of remembrance, I took some snapshots of the ticket we bought. 

so, we reserved ITX train from Cheongnyangni to Chuncheon for 12,000 Won. 

The same price applied to our way back home to Seoul.  

We were departing at 16.10 and arrived at Cheongnyangni station at exactly 17.07. 

What a punctual train ITX is. 

A Tranquil Chuncheon...

Yes...it was so tranquil when we were thre. Well, of course not all part of Chuncheon city IS tranquil. We just need to go there at the right time, moment, and place.

As for us, we went to Soyang Dam at the eastern part of the city. a 30-minute bus drive from the Chuncheon  Station by bus number 11 or 12 would take us there. 

We were actually about to leave the Dam when I thought that...it would be a good place to take a picture since not many people were around.

Indeed, it was a rare tranquility we may find it hard to find in Seoul (except in certain places or gardens, of course). 

We'll always remember this serene and quiet lane...beside the Soyanggang Dam.

Drizzling...breezing...chilling...windy...cloudy...foggy....snowy.... 

Eyra and Freya on January 23, 2013....marked their steps in Chuncheon. 

This is the bust stop right in front of the station where we took the bus that transported us up to the Soyang Dam.  

At about 14.49 or about one hour before departing, we arrived at the station again...

so..what to do while we had the remaining one hour left at the station? Would there be something that we could do? (check out our other entry).
