On the Rooftop of Time Museum ~~~~>>> Rail Bike Tour

We're on the top of the museum...looking out onto the vast open East Sea as well as the Sun Cruise landmark beyond. What a great day...indeed. Freya was busy trying to ring the hanging bells. 
Yup..this is pretty much what it looked like from the rooftop. A rail way just next to the seashore..
.what a sight. 
Bell of Hope...as it was written. And...once again...those are the museum-turned train compartment. 
Sun Cruise Ship under the Bell.
oh..right..the rail bike tour. We got only 5 minutes to run from the museum to the starting point of the rail bike tour. phew.... 
But we managed to arrive..just in time before the pre-booked tour started. 
The 5.7 km track...seemed to be a good way to spend an afternoon. 
Waiting for our bike ...to ride back into the starting point.  
Barbed wires were everywhere. Yup..it's not far from North Korea....so they said.
and..then..here we go again./...pedaling our bike.....
We were not allowed to get too close with other bikes...we got to make sure that a minimum 20-meter distance was maintained so as to avoid any accident. 
Another rail bike was about to pass us by as we're going back.  
Back to where we started. 
A small river...@ Jeongdongjin..with Sun Cruise beyond.

Time Museum @ Jeongdongjin

This is NOT an ordinary train. In fact, it is a museum specializing in TIME or watches or anything related with TIME. 
As the name suggests, we could see gee..unbelievably unique watches from around the globe.
I love the "7-Men Clock"!! 
Eyra and Freya received some instructions to find the TREASURES hidden in each compartment of the museum. They loved doing it. 
Expensively unique and rare watches on display.
I just couldn't keep up with the names and designs that they offered. Gee... 
They're simply too MUCH..so much to chew and discern..which made them interesting, though. 
More and more...expensive...watches.. 
Opps..there is a gamelan on display. It's a traditional Javanese musical instrument..which made me to wonder as to how this relates to the TIME-theme museum. Oh, well...
It is called 'gender' (pronounced 근데르 NOT 젠더 as it is written^^). 
All fancy looking antiquities. 
The Titanic's infamous stair cases....^^ and a clock, see that? 
Even the found watches from the Titanic were on display, too. 
More golden-gilded watches...oh nooo....
and..a relief to the eyes.... 
a great way to get away from the golden watches..until... 
We're intrigued by this... 
If you keep looking at this watch, you'll become younger...^^아하!! 
Oh, no..Mama..why did you also want me to take the pose like this? 
1 minute is enough to give hugs to someone we love..each day. 
and..so they did.
Right..time will never return... 
and..then we went out onto the 2nd observation deck ON TOP of the train..to see what's more in store..
