'Dokebi Road' aka 'Mysterious Road' in Jeju Island was a tourist attraction but not so to the locals... So why called the 'Mysterious Road'??? What's so mysterious about this particular stretch of road??? Apparently when one turned off his/her car engine, their car will start rolling uphill!!!

This road was founded by a taxi driver who was giving a newlywed couple a driving tour around the area in year 1980... So obviously this stretch of road became really popular after that...

Scientifically there was nothing mysterious about this road... Actually the cars were all going downhill instead of uphill... This was all an illusion... Due to the lack of a true horizon, subconsciously our judgement of a slope was misled by the false horizon in that area... When you reach the end of the road, you will noticed that the road was actually going downhill instead of uphill... And this explained why the car will start rolling when you turned off the engine... Myth busted I'm afraid!!! Haha... But we all enjoyed it nonetheless...

It started to snow AGAIN!!! But too bad I can't captured the snow in this pic... I tried but I failed!!!

BBQ chicken stick... Really nice... The chicken was really really soft and tender!!! And not forgetting juicy as well...

My darling enjoying her BBQ chicken stick...

Noticed this really nice scenery near our tour bus and decided to snap a few pics...

Avatar 3D... One word to sum it up... Awesome!!! In terms of CGI, this is the best ever... I was blown away the moment I put on my 3D glass... I'm afraid it was really that awesome... I don't know about 2D though... I heard a lot of good review regarding this movie and I must agree with most... A few months ago, I was really skeptical about this movie... The reason for this was because it looks fake when I watched the trailer... But when I watched the movie for real... OMG!!! Even my darling praised the CGI... Mind you she's not a movie freak like me and she don't give a damn about CGI...

The storyline was kind of basic... In my opinion, I felt that the front half of the movie was a bit slow paced... But at least you can enjoyed at the really cool CGI... I personally really like the second half of the movie... A really big thumbs up for the director for bringing us this really awesome movie... Really recommended and remember to watch it in 3D!!! A great way to end year 2009!!!

Next destination... Jeju Island... Considered as the most beautiful island in Korea... This was the place that the Koreans will go for their honeymoon... We were considered lucky because our flight to Jeju was scheduled at around 2 something in the afternoon... So we got plenty of time and we don't have to rush unlike some others... I knew some of the other tour were not so lucky because they needed to wait at the airport for around 2-3 hours in ordered to catch their next flight to Jeju... We still managed to tour around Seoul and had nice BBQ lunch before taking off to the airport...

Along the way, I saw a lot of Coffee Beans and Starbucks... Guessed the Koreans really likes to drink coffee... What surprised me the most was the lack of McDonald's and KFC in Korea... The reason for this was because Korean prefer Lotteria which was they very own local fast food joint... So that explained the lack of McD and KFC in Korea...

But Dunkin Donuts was everywhere!!! You can virtually walked around in Korea blindfolded and simply walk into a Dunkin Donuts shop...

Snapped this pic in our tour bus...

I'm so excited because the moment we reached the airport, it started to snow!!! Just looked at the road... I bet the Koreans were really curious looking at a bunch of really 'JAKUN' people snapping pictures of the road covered in snow...

Waited for our turn to board the plane... Oh gosh another boring hour on the plane!!!

Thank god because the view out of the plane was really spectacular... Cotton candy like clouds covering the whole sky... Really a sight to behold!!!

Our first meal in Korea... So far so good because it was BBQ... I'm a BIG fan of BBQ... I just love to eat grilled stuff... As usual there were a lot of side dishes and of course it was refillable... The only thing that disappoint me was no beef!!! Can you imagine 'NO BEEF'!!! Pork was the only meat... I had nothing against pork in fact I love them but not as much as beef...

According to our tour guide, beef was really expensive in Korea... In fact pork was the cheapest there... Cheaper than chicken!!!

Eat to my heart content... The pork was also refillable!!!

The side dish but I touched none of it!!! I just don't like it...

Rice!!! One of my must have food... Just take a looked at my body size and you will know why... I'm an official 'fan tong'!!! As usual, the rice was refillable as well...

Vegetables... These were for the pork... Take a vege and placed a piece of pork on top of the vege... Wrapped up the vege and put it into your mouth!!! Hmmmm... Heavenly...

Grilled to perfection!!!

My darling enjoying the lunch...

Overall I'm really satisfied with this meal... The pork and vege were really fresh... The only downside of this meal was we all smelled real bad after we finished eating thanks to all the smoke while BBQ-ing the pork!!!
