korea day three

lotte world

today was a blast! it's friday and we went to lotte world!
the views are nothing compared to USJ's but the rides here are definitely far more interesting than those childish disneyland rides!

i would say lotte world is just the right size, not being too ridicously huge like USJ which makes you go "hurry hurry! we'll never be able to finish all the rides at this pace!", making you feel like it'd be a waste of your super expensive entrance ticket if you are unable to play everything (which is the definite outcome in the end)

the ride i never got on =(
but i'm still satisfied tee hee XD
i got to sit at the front most of the rides today!!


nope.. that guy isn't the one whose picture i'm trying to take

this one...this (almost) filthy traitor
the 3 of us said to ride the bungee drop together but when sze yang and me lined up dong sheng secretly sneaked off!
by the time we realised he was sitting there smirking ==

after a series of "you traitor!" "we'll tell everyone about your betrayal in fb" threats, his conscious must have gotten to him and he lined at the back =)

this one drags you high high then drop then up, drop times 3
it reminded me of a similiar ride in genting which i recall myself screaming then halfway during the drop down the speed must have been so fast that my voice wouldn't come out.

i was prepared to scream off my head this time but 
this ride, like all other lotte world rides as i'm about to find out - is thrilling rather scary


i'm not sure how lotte world does it but good job!!
most of the rides have just the right level of scariness to be thrilling
letting us all get off the rides laughing rather than " i will NEVER ride on this monster again" gasps

 
it was love at first sight
gyro drop *sigh*
gyro drop not only swings you higher than those pirates ships, it spins at its own axis 360!!
i thought "this is it!!"

which i was to later find out that looks can be misleading
this has to be the most unscary ride of scary looking rides out there =(
i didn't even scream
wonder if it's because it has two wall like things beside your head allowing you to only see your front
it wasn't scary at all and simply feel like the scene in front of you is changing on its own

it was interesting to see the castle at its 90degrees ^^

sze yang's state after gyro drop
apparently it's my fault for blurting out "no feel de?!" halfway through the ride making him paiseh to scream out thus - leading him to become ill?
haha i will remember this scene and goad sze yang about it for life! 


don't ask me.. i also don't know what pose this is haha


the halloween parade... made me reminisce that it was around this time last year i went to see Universal Studio Japan's halloween parade. the lighting, floats at USJ were far more 'wow!' and enchanting but i like how lotte world included a bit of dancing into their parade

was kind of suprised they hired ang-mohs for the parade but soon found out the reason when i see the koreans in the costumes..
something just feel amiss when its asians doing the ang-moh cartoons roles. some of the korean performers just put on a black face and didn't smile at all!






like genting highland, lotte world has an indoor and outdoor amusement park
we originally planned to leave the indoor park for night (when the lighting would be more pretty) but ended up alternating between the indoor and outdoor everytime the sun comes out


a museum in lotte world


which is again actually very interesting but i just don't know how to 'xin shan'


dunno who took this photo but i love it!


i love this view! i love the purple and pink light illuminating the castle's bottom part making it look so magical!
but again honestly this is the only nice view in lotte world


 overall i had to say i really really love the rides here! none of them are actually very scary. they're more to thrilling and exciting ^^!

and thumbs up for the outdoor roller coaster!!
its the best of all the roller coasters i have ever ridden on (not that i have ridden much =P- genting, usj, and this time).
while most roller coasters start slow and leisurely brings you up up then all of a sudden - dooowwn, this one goes high speed right from the beginning.

we were all laughing when we got off the ride

thank you dong sheng and sze yang *^-^* - for making today so thrilling for me!
things just wouldn't be the same if i was screaming alone
