Hello, Jeju

Blogging in my hotel room just because I don't know what to do. It's too cold outside to venture around for too long especially at night. In fact, I'm not sure if I can even feel my nose. I have to admit, I'm missing Malaysia's overwhelming heat a little bit.
On the other hand, I can finally cross 'seeing snow' out of my list. :D
It snowed the moment we landed yesterday night, just like I wished it would, even if it's only for a little while. Had to catch a super early flight to Jeju so we had to camp out at a 24 hours McDonald's near the airport till then. Interesting experience, it was, along with a random fist fight between 2 guys over a girl at a table near ours at 3am. A bit of punching, then Guy A threw a chair at Guy B, who deflected and sent the chair flying down the stairs. In the end, the cops came and they settled down. Girl kept crying the whole time, good job, while we all stood at a corner because the guys were blocking the exit.

So anyway, the food here is definitely awesome, but this hotel we're at is not so. After dinner, we walked out to a mild snowfall and it was so pretty! I wish I could've taken a picture but it probably wouldn't show.

I'm looking out the window now, and I do think this is the first time I see oranges in a tree. The snow has stopped but the roads are covered in white and I've never seen the sky so clear back at our place.
