Tongyeong Part 2: Geoje

Upon saying goodbye to our church companions, John and I took a walk along the beach and enjoyed our snacks while watching the sunset. When the sun went down we went in search of dinner. We had resigned ourselves to a meal of expensive raw fish when one restaurant owner invited us in and asked if we wanted kimchi soup.  Yes!  I will be happy to eat cheap kimchi soup over expensive raw fish any day.  Success!

In the morning we played a quick game of badmitton and then took to the open road, taking a bus, and then a ferry back to the mainland where we saw some art, took artsy photos, and enjoyed decent cups of espresso.  From Tongyeong we took a 20 minute bus ride to Geoje and toured the site of a former POW camp.  It was much bigger and more impressive than I anticipated. I hope we go back soon because Geoje is supposed to have great beaches and hiking trails.

Crazy spider!

The light on the water was awesome. No photoshopping.
