After the ski adventure...

So for an update real quick... the eyes are doing well. I experienced three days of horrible pain from the Lasek, but doing much better now. The eyesight is still pretty blurry, but is expected to get better in the next few weeks. Thanks to everyone for your continued prayer and support. It's so much appreciated!

Jeongdongjin

I never finished what happened a few weekends ago. Since we had a long weekend due to the Lunar New Year, after the ski trip Steph, Wayne, Chris and myself decided to take off and have an adventure of our own. And it was! It was great and really fun to travel so well with this group. We had no plan. No expectation.


So after a taxi cab ride later, we ended up in Jeongdongjin.


It's located near the eastern coast of Korea somewhat close to a beach called Sokcho that I visited in the summer. I was figuring it might be something really great. So after a few bus rides late at night, we found ourselves in a place not knowing exactly what to expect. So we found ourselves a 'love motel', got rid of our packs and headed out to see what this little town was all about. Most interesting, what was this huge cruise ship on the cliff for? To say the least, we were all excited to explore it the next morning...



We made our trek toward the cruise ship after a very hospitable stay at our motel. The owners were so sweet. We definitely have a place to stay next time we come back!

And what we found was BEAUTIFUL! I was amazed and couldn't believe I didn't try to spend my entire summer here!

We just had too much fun with the props as we neared the ship.

I wish I knew the idea behind the hands....

The ship is nothing but a hotel/resort.... as well as a Wedding Hall. We had a blast exploring the area and taking a look at everything. It would be a wonderful place to spend some time at during the summer months. The grass is dead and the palm trees are all bundled up for the winter, but hey, you get the idea ;)

This is the view from the top of the revolving restaurant/lounge at the very top of the ship. It really was stunning. God's creation is truly amazing :)


The tribute to one fantastic weekend. Thanks guys for the awesome memories.
