A Wonderful Day in Tongyeong

Yesterday Brandon and I met up with our friends Arnie and Roxy. We started the day by renting two tandem bikes; we rode them down the boardwalk along the water. The view was amazing and the sun was shining so it was a great time. We stopped at a place along the path and had a nice lunch, too. After we returned the bikes, we drove to a Buddhist temple on Mireuksan (the mountain we climbed a few months ago). It was very peaceful there, and also beautiful. Next we headed to Gala Park, which overlooks many of the islands of Tongyeong. The view was incredible! We then headed back into town where we met up with our friend Alice. We all ate a light dinner and walked around window shopping.
Luckily we did all of our outdoor adventures yesterday; today it's rainy and cold. We have plenty of housework to do around here, so we won't get bored!
Also, it's official: We are going to Thailand at the end of December! We will be visiting my friend Min, who studied in the USA for a year when I was in high school. It's quite warm in Thailand, in the 80's, so that will be a plus also! We will be there for 4 days, but don't have any of the other details worked out yet! It will surely be a great Christmas present though!
