Picture Time

Here's the Seoul airport. I think they send spaceships from this spot.
on the bus to Wando!The Bus!Here we are at the first rest stop, our helper Yu-sun with the Statue of Liberty shirtI had some dinner and it was bad, but Sam (left) and Eric (right) enjoyed theirs.
The view of the ocean from our place. Fog city.
The great swimming pool in the front, but the point was the pretty jawesome view out there.
The camp, our rooms are behind the scaffolding
The back of the building, looks great huh? With all the fog and the fact that this building seems abandoned in the middle of construction and junk in the back and the fact that we're basically quarantined it feels like a horror movie. Fun though.
Sam is really happy about the stuff in the back.
more stuff
Kyler in his bed cool huh
there's me!
archery range at the camp? cool huh
Here we go on the hike up to the kinda mediocre temple.
rice and stuff
the temple!
the temple dog
some dude with the dog
me! at the temple over fog
Our building, the great castle in the clouds
lunch! not enough meat in the soup but good overall. I actually am liking the kimchi here a lot, which is a surprise cause I really disliked it most of the time in America. It's like it's not jarred here or something!
H1N1 inspection, guess this is going to be a regular thing
She got a stern talking to for some reason...

Looks like I passed! but my temperature was a little high I guess? Hmmmm I feel fine though. Basically we're quarantined for a week and are getting our health checked daily or something? Woooo so much fun.

After the inspection I went to my room, composed for a bit, and fell asleep until someone woke me up for a meeting we had at 3. That took a while but afterwards Eric mentioned that he found an offshoot trail on the way to the temple you can get to by crossing over the stream. This turned into a huge adventure.
Forest was cool
The group, although people slowly started turning back.

foggy fog fog. Was a test shot I guess but that just shows how foggy it was even just above the ground.
woodz
the group some more

crazy mushrooms, wish I had a better picture but there's that orange netting mesh they've grown and the mushroom is on top? I don't understand really.
Great view, except the fog ruins it :P Wonder what it actually looks like. Kyler loved that stick he's got there. This is pretty much the end of the trail we went to, but we found out it could keep going, but too bad we couldn't keep going.... dinner was too soon.



Me! and my water bottle
Sam just chillin
oh yeah! The rest of the group.... So because dinner was so soon and I kinda wanted to run back we (Aly, Shannon, Danika, Kyler, Sam, and I were the only people left at this point) ended up doing just that and got back within a half hour, even though the hike was maybe an hour and half to get to that point.

Drenched with sweat, also sunburn from the morning hike @_@ too lazy to turn it unsideways sorry

Huge ass moth that was near the cafeteria, thanks dude for the hand for size purposes.
Dinner! tonkatsu with gravy and fries and stuff, yum yum yum?
Oh yeah this is my room, and...
bathroom! the whole floor is tile and you just sort of shower next to the sink. it's weird.

Um that's all my photos for now except a few blurry ones that sucked horribly. All in all I've had fun so far, looking forward to tomorrow. Hopefully my bug repellent will work better in the future as I got a few bites today :O the sunburn really sucks and I hope I can get sunscreen from people from now on, that damn fog made it seem like the sun doesn't matter. I see it's showing up on my arms now too, argh.
well
I'm pretty exhausted even though it's only 9:40pm, might go to bed soon and read or something.
