Thanksgiving on Muuido Island

Last weekend we explored Muuido Island in Korea with the Seoul Hiking Group. They had organized a weekend excursion that included a turkey dinner feast. The island is located near the airport in Seoul. It was a beautiful setting with mountains to hike and beaches to enjoy. We want to go back when the weather is warmer so we can go swimming in the Yellow Sea. The 'resort' we stayed at was right on the beach. I put resort in quotations because it was not like resorts back home. More like a camping resort.

We met some new friends, ate a delicious feast of turkey and ham, hiked up a mountain where there was a gorgeous view at the top, and collected many, many seashells. We want to make some art/decor for around the apartment with the shells. It was nice to be by the seaside again. I think Jean-Marc felt a little closer to home.

Goodbye Mainland!

Mmmmyummyummyum. Turkey and ham dinner! Happy Thanksgiving!

Sunset on the Yellow Sea. The tide came in that night and the waves were rockin'!

View from our Sunday morning hike. That is the beach we found shells on. It was nice to be near the sea again.

Taking a break from our hike to pose.



After the hike we decided to walk along the shore and collect sea shells. The shoreline was very rocky and when the tide comes in, you wouldn't want to get caught against it. But Sunday morning the tide was so far out we couldn't even see the water. So we walked on the ocean floor!



Collecting seashells! Jennika's favourite seaside activity.

Jean-Marc found a big one.

Hermit crab!

Stretch it!

 


The rocky shore. Take that Rocky Bay!

A secret cavern deep in the rocks.

Beautiful day.
