Well the Cherry Blossoms came and went in a weekend and they were amazing to say the least.
Also so since we've talked last I've started hiking on a regular basis. By regular i mean every other day or so. And the usually on the weekends i go do a bigger hike with a more rewarding view or something. There is a hike right in the middle of Yeosu, Mount Goobongsan (321m) and i do it a couple times a week after classes. I've started a hiking group here and have about a half dozen people who hike with me on a fairly regular basis now too!
We call ourselves the Walking Dead...
There are actually like 9 or 10 of us just the three of us started hiking together a lot and it's grown since then.
The views from Goobongsan
The views from Pongwasan (translates to Fire Tower Mountain.. san = mountain)
Last week i went and hiked Mount Wolchulsan. It was amazing. This ragged rocky granite mountain just rose up out of no where amidst all these fields and small green hills. They built this bright orange suspension bridge from two of the peaks and from the bottom they look like they're so far up but once you hike it you realize they're closer to the bottom than they are to the top... Either way the hike was amazing and probably one of the most fulfilling things I've done since I've been here.
The following day instead of vegging out and resting the day away after are killer leg work out we decided to go to the Bosesang Tea Fields on the way home and make the most of our weekend. That was just more torture on our knees but totally worth it in the end. The tea fields were dope and the fresh green tea ice cream at the bottoms was amazing in and of it self.
I'm liking Korea more and more on a daily basis. They turned on the fountains down the main strip through Yeosu today and i will get pictures of them soon for you all...
