Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival & Geoje-do - April 9-10, 2011

Went on another fun trip with the Seoul Hiking Group.  On a side note, I always get sooo excited when I meet someone from Atlanta, which is very rare.  Most foreigners, mainly the teachers, are from Canada.

Here we are at the Upo Wetlands, our first stop.  We didn't stay here very long.
We were so excited about seeing cows.



Walking to the Jinhae Cherry Blossom Festival.  The streets were lined with cherry blossoms.  Beautiful!



This was a giant tug of war!



Festival food...






There always seems to be a bonfire when the Seoul Hiking Group is around.  We stayed the night on Geoje-do the second largest island in South Korea and did some exploring the next day.




 

Enjoying the scenery before departing for our next stop...



The water was really cold.


Goats!



Hiking up Azalea Mountain.  Out last stop of the trip.







 

We weren't exactly sure what these were for...


I think those are supposed to be rocks?  I just had to take a picture. 
It was a fun trip hanging out with some great people...as always =)  I always look forward to these trips.  It definitely gives me a chance to meet some interesting people while exploring Korea.
