Today we woke up a 5:00am, to prepare for the three hour ride to Ocean World, an indoor and outdoor waterpark. The waterpark is not as large as Wonderland's, but it has a wider variety of activities to offer. In addition to waterslides, there is a wave pool that creates 2m waves (which was one of my favourite activies in the park), around 10 different hottubs, each with special treatments in them such as Rubus Coreans baths, which apparently give your hormones a good flow. There was even a wine bath. There was also a lazy river-type ride, only it had massive wa ves that pushed you rather than just a current. Saunas (or Sa-oo-nas as Koreans call it) were everywhere, and there was a steam room in the changeroom. There was also a spa section of the park, although we didnt venture to it because we figured you had to pay.
In Korea, there is a rule that you must be wearing either a hat or a bathing cap in pools and such. I forgot my hat, so I was forced to where a flowery doorag which looked absolutely ridiculous. Luckily, I didn't actually wear it in the pools and no one said anything except for the guy life-guarding the kiddy pool. Maybe he had other reasons for kicking me out... :P
After nearly 12 hours in the park, we decided to call it a day and head home. While in the car though, we decided the day wasn't over though, and headed out for kereoke. Sunghee and I sang a bunch of songs like "Rock and Roll All Night" "U Can't Touch This" and "Phantom of the Opera". We were a little saddened when we found out there was nothing from the Sound of Music. Finally, at 11:00 were headed home for real, arriving at 12:30. After an extremely long day, I layed down on the bed without changing and fell asleep as my head hit the pillow. We may dance better than MC Hammer himself...
