Honeymoon Trip to Korea: Day 7 & 8
On the last two days in Korea, we spent mostly around Seoul city area.. as mentioned earlier due to the Spring session had not reached Seoul, we already omitted the places we wanted to visit for the cherry blossoms experience..
02 April:
We went to a nearby Korean food restaurant for breakfast.. the food there just so-so only.. but as usual, coz the portion quite big I also couldn’t finish it hehe..
Our breakfast for the day
That's our hotel, just behind me 
We went for a stroll around Seoul today.. our initial plan was totally out, we’re a bit lazy to go to Suwon Fortress as the place is out of town and the journey takes quite a while.. Thinking to go to Nami island.. but apparently our timing wouldn’t be able to make it, some more we’re quite late to go already as need to take the ferry to Nami island.. to be honest, actually we got lost on the way to Nami haha as I wrongly read the subway map and our improper timing plan..
So here ended up we strolled around the city.. visited the Gwanghwamun and went for shopping again to Insa-dong to buy the souvenirs for friends and relatives which we haven’t bought on the earlier day..

The other statue is located at the opposite
Insa-dong Ssamziegil Market
We found a stall in Insa-dong that selling a uniquely formed cakes.. Can you guess what’s the form of the cake? haha.. see below pic

Around the evening time, we went to Myeong-dong again as the place is walkable from Insa-dong market.. Along the way, we bought some snacks on the street stall..

We took our dinner in one of the street stall along the way and went back to our hotel.
Dinner time ^^
03 April:
This day was our last day in our Honeymoon Trip to Korea.. after we checked out from the hotel, we brought our luggages and stroll along to find the Airport bus terminal.. they provided the check-in service on-site also, so we didn’t need to bring our luggages along to the bus..
After bought the bus ticket and we went straight-away to check-in our luggages at the terminal, we went to have our lunch there.. and just in time after we finished lunch, we hurriedly boarded to the bus which took us to Seoul Incheon Airport.
Lunch Time ^^
Prepared to board the Airport Bus
At the airport, after checked-in our luggages we walked around and found there was a performance of some Korean tradition by the Korean women.. they also taught the attendee on how to draw the Korean art.. too bad we didn’t have much time to join.. so we only went to see around and proceed to our boarding gate..

Finally it’s time to say good bye Korea.. hope we will come to visit again someday.. 
Conclusion:
Overall it was an enjoyable Honeymoon trip with my lovely hubby… even though we had some disagreements sometimes, finally we can make it up again and enjoy our whole Korea Trip.. I realized that we both was an adventurer type who prefer scenic places and nature sightseeing compare to stroll around the city..
For this trip, what we love the most was the trip in Jeju island.. The scenery was simply awesome!

Honeymoon Trip to Korea: Day 6
Two days of our free & easy trip in Seoul had passed.. Unfortunately, we couldn’t follow our initial planning.. Had been omitted the places where we planned to view the cherry blossoms trees as Spring season had not reached Seoul at that time.. 
The 3rd day in Seoul, after took bath, we went out to take our breakfast cum lunch first at nearby restaurant then went back to check-out from Seoul guesthouse on the afternoon..
Yummy Soup ^^
It was a bit drizzling that day, after asking the direction to Ibis Seoul – Gangnam from the owner’s daughter and feeling confident to find the place.. we prepared to make a move but before that we took some pics around the guesthouse and with the famous dog from there, Sari.. We knew we will surely miss that place and hope to re-visit again in future :’)

As suggested, we took subway instead of cab to avoid traffic at that hour. Taking metro subway in Seoul with out luggages was quite a challenge for us.. We hardly found escalators inside so we need to carried around our luggages each time we changed from one line to another.. We also need to carried the luggages at the MRT entrance and exit as our luggages was too big to fit in haha >.<
The Ibis Seoul Ambassador located quite a distance from the Subway station hence we still need to walk around 15 minutes.. The surrounding around the hotel mostly are office buildings.. Its similar like a CBD area in Singapore.. Very different with the surrounding around Seoul guesthouse which located quite in Central Seoul..
After found the hotel, we checked in and rest for a while.. The room was not bad, its more than we expected from a 3 star hotel.. Ibis hotel does have a good standard
Actually I chose this hotel based on the review from TripAdvisor forum.. it has a good review, short walking distance to the Subway station and the Airport bus terminal and another plus point for the place is surrounded by nearby cafes and restaurants so easily can find something to eat..
After resting for a while, we went to visit COEX Aquarium to see the underwater marine life conservation there.. The COEX Aquarium is located inside the COEX Mall. The aquarium was quite big and such an interesting place to visit, a lot of various river/sea creatures inside.. they also designed it very well.. It’s a worth place to visit with your spouse, friends or family as when you enter the place, you suddenly feel like you’re in another world hehe.. Oh ya it’s also located within a walking distance from our hotel, just a short 15-20 mins walk
The Entrance
Look!! So many Dory fishes..
Can you see the fishes there?
Isn't that a screensaver? 
Wow.. So colourful.. ^^
Red Jellyfishes that Spongebob really loves to catch it hehe
Isn't that wonderful how the colourful lights can makes the jellyfishes look very beautiful
Didn’t notice the time passing till it was the dinner time.. we walked around the COEX Mall and found a Jacky Chan’s restaurant.. we decided to try and have Chinese food for our dinner
Our dinner at Jacky Chan's restaurant
After dinner, we took the Subway Metro to Dongdaemun station to visit the famous Dongdaemun night market shopping center until we felt tired of walking and shopping of course hehe.. then we decided to go back to our hotel..

Waiting the traffic light turns to green to cross the street
We tried the Fried Chicken stall just beside our hotel.. Not too bad in a cold and frizzing weather, we ate the hot and fried Chicken for supper hehe.. even though a bit oily..
Our supper ^^
That’s all the adventure for Day 6, time to rest and head back to our hotel room hehe
