I'm Back

Big absence, I know, but we have been travelling all over the country side.

Mum and Dad Arrived on 17th March - we spent a few days hanging in Suwon going to the Folk Museum and the Hwaseong Fortress. We walked all over the Folk Village, climbed the Hwaseong Fortress and Paul and Dad tried to shoot arrows - Korean style.

For some crazy reason we bought the girls Fairy Floss.

On the Monday we jumped in the min van we hired and headed East to a city called Sokcho. We stayed in Sokcho at a resort highly reccomended by friends, only to find oursleves sleeping on the floor!!!!!!!! So we booked another room so at least the adults could have beds. I suppose the best part about heading east was the ocean - we got to see the ocean again. Big rolling waves - and CLEAN! I forgot how much I miss the ocean and the water living here. The strangest thing was that the ocean was all fenced off with barbed wire and theses huge fences - pictures below. We all had our opinons why they were fenced off, but I havn't actually found out the rally reason - I am assuming it has something to do with North Korea. Anyway we eventually found one little gate that let us down onto the beach and the girls went crazy - it was freezing, but that did stop them trying to get wet.

Ahhh the ocean

Just don't try and get to it!

Two Grumpy old men - one in an ugly hat!

Corky got all wet in the ocean, so we stripped her off only to discover she had her sisters underpants on.
