Going Home to Icheon

When we arrived at Express Bus Terminal Station it was around 10:45 in the evening, actually we get lost for a minute because there’s two line for bus terminal, so sad that there’s no more bus left for Icheon. Last bus left at 10:10 in the evening, hubby was kind of pissed of because he don’t want to stay and sleep in the terminal to wait for another bus tomorrow. We asked the guy outside the counter if he knows what is the last Bus going to Icheon in Dong Seoul Bus Terminal, he said around 11:30 in the evening so hubby and I run like hell going back to the subway station hoping to catch up the last bus in Dong Seoul. Dong Seoul is 36 minutes from Itaewon and around 30 minutes from where we are. We arrived at Dong Seoul Bus Station at exactly 11:25 in the evening, so unfortunate that there’s no bus going to Icheon again.

I asked him what we are going to do, he said don’t want to wait and sleep in the terminal so he asked me if I brought my ARC because we are going to stay in a hotel, going out at the exit door of the bus terminal some taxi driver’s approached us. We said Icheon and they said a price, at first it cost 50,000 won but when they saw our address in a piece of paper because we have to make sure we have the same place on our mind. The fare goes up to 70,000 won take or leave it. Hubby take the price even I told her it seems high, he said it’s just the same price if we are going to stay in a hotel. The good thing with that price is when can go home and rest without thinking that we need to catch a bus again the other day. After one hour and few minutes we arrived in our home sound and safe.

I found the picture above so cute, hubby is scratching his head thinking where to get fare for the taxi (lol). He is so cute at the picture like a little boy, hehehe.

My Share of Mellow Yellow

Well as I said on my previous blog we ate in a Mexican Restaurant in Itaewon, so here’s my share for mellow yellow Monday, I was not too shy to take picture of my food this time because Catlaine was there who’s also Picture crazy as Anthone (her husband) called her.
Super Burito
Crazy Fries
Still hungry for dessert after the dinner, hubby is craving for a cup of coffee and doughnuts so when we saw Dunkin Donuts in the subway station we went inside but they’re already close so we found from Krispy Creme in another subway station we get off the train, I got a big can of Ice tea too.

So much fun in Itaewon

Last night we went to Itaewon to meet Catlaine and her husband, they’re my our new found friend. I’ve met Catlaine online, she’s one of the people who uses my travel blog as guide going her in Korea. She just arrived here in Korea seven days ago, and our meet up was scheduled yesterday.
Our scheduled meet up time is 6:30 PM at Itaewon station, exit 4. We left home around 4 o’clock something, bus left at 4:57 in the afternoon, there’s traffic along the way that cause us to arrived Express Bus Terminal at 6:15, Jezzz we are kinda late. We’re still going to take subway then transfer one station, when I saw a payphone I dialed their number to tell them we are going to be late but unfortunately their phone was just ringing. So hubby and I just take the train, thinking maybe they left already.
I think it’s already quarter to seven when we arrived at Itaewon exit 4, I am grasping for air when we arrived at the meeting place because we did not use the escalator in hurry, we took the long stairs. Luckily they’re still there waiting for us, so after hi and hello and where Catlaine hug me so tight that I can’t return  her hug tightfully because I am really grasping for air.

We ate at a Mexican Restaurant while talking anything, after it we walk around the street because hubby is looking for a cardigan for his work. We ride in the same train when we depart our ways around ten o’clock maybe. The dinner and everything was fun. Nice meeting you guys!
