Hello you fine people. At the time of writing, this blog is now the fifth google result for the search term 'kumantong'. I would like to thank each and every one of you kumantong enthusiasts even though you will never read this post, but your incredible support throughout these 12 years has been very touching. Kamsahamnida and hope your kumantongs stay healthy and happy.
Since this was our last full day in Korea, we just had to begin the day with a uniquely Korean breakfast.
As a Mcdonald's sausage mcmuffin with egg fan this picture makes me slightly erect.
Honestly speaking, i never had Paris Baguette before because my income level only allows me to eat DJ bakery but the breakfast muffins here are actually legit.
Fully nude Jh having a shit, Jl digging Reagan's hole, a packet of condoms proudly on display. Our final house tour in Korea left nothing to the imagination and should give you an insight into what it's like living with MSE.
Since our ski session didn't begin until noon, we made full use of our lift passes and went all the way to the summit to assess if we could conquer it by the end of the day.
The last time we took a gondola at a ski resort, it was a shameful ride in defeat. This time however, it's full of hope and belief.
Ok guys let's just take the gondola down and pretend this never happened.
The Mont Blanc is where advanced skiers, snowboarders, and 7 curious noobs gather to seek the thrill of extreme sports.
Our version of extreme sports is walking as close to the edge as our testicles allows us to. Holy fuck it's so steep that you can't see what's below.
That was before some 5 year old kids told us to siam out of the way and took off right in front of us. How can one feel so low, yet so high at the same time?
But since we were already at the peak of the mountain, might as well take a group photo to commemorate the wonderful gondola ride. Lovely windmills in the background too.
Watching the pros do their stuff did manage to hype us up and before long it was our turn to hit the snow.
Proud faces at graduating from the baby slope to the beginner slope.
Pffft look at that sign asking us skiers to stay to the right as if we can control ourselves. The initial run was daunting like the first flight of a baby bird, but it was fun, fun, fun as we managed to grasp the basics and brake our way down the hill. Sure, we fell down a few times and Jh almost killed a boy but we finished our first session with our limbs largely intact.
The slopes would then close for a short break before reopening for the night sessions. We took this chance to refuel up, with an authentic Korean meal of course, since this would be the last dinner of our trip.
Nothing more Korean than some burgers and buffalo wings made by Australians. We had eaten so much kimchi the past 9 days that my poop started to smell kinda fermented.
不要看后面, 就是在说你.
With our filled bellies we channeled the YOLO spirit and went all out by heading up to the Mont Blanc for our final ski run!
Just kidding, our insurance payout is not that high and we still hum ji so go back play the beginner slope, while Reagan advanced to the intermediate level cause he got nothing to lose.
Kl finally figured out how to turn off the magnets attracting his skis to mine.
My thoughts on Phoenix Park? It's a decent playground for a beginner as the green slopes are gentle and generally not too scary, apart from the final stretch where you can fan jian and accelerate straight down leaving a trail of pee. However, the snow here is icy and hurts like a bitch when you fall compared to the fluffy powder in Niseko.
Great fun and all but we were thoroughly exhausted from kek-ing our leg muscles to brake. It's time to call it a day and grab some supper.
I have never seen Yc move so fast in the 16 years i've known him. I think my nipples almost froze off too within that 30 seconds. Yes, we could have worn a jacket down but we wanted to fully embrace our last few hours of winter.
When the advertising and actual product is not even close. No wonder North Korea wants to invade them.
Good thing my pretty bento with purple multigrain rice made up for the fake chicken nugget thingy.
This cheesecake with cookie crumble was my last purchase from a Korean convenience store and probably my best of the trip. So creamy that it feels like you're swimming in the cow's teats.
There's no better joy than sharing food with your friends, especially when it's a dubious looking chicken nugget in brown sauce. But sometimes a food looks so bad that you can't even trick them into thinking it's good. One final post to go and then we are finally done with Korea. Good thing there's this coronavirus thingy so all my travel plans have to stop and allow me to catch up on my blog. Hahahahaha...hahah...haha..ha......
