A trip to South Korea

Just got back last night from a 7-day tour to South Korea with my wife and some friends met during the tour. I could not imagine that it could still be snowing 3 days ago while we were at Korea. This was amazing as I did not see so much snow in my whole life (not even in England during my stay as a student in the 70s). The kids were seen throwing snow balls at each other. They were thrilled.

Here are just some photos to show the beautiful snow scenes captured in my camera.

Our trip to Jeju island was also filled with fun and excitement, and lots of nice scenery.

Dragon Head Cliff
Volcanic Rocks
Many rock formations were produced as a result of
volcanic eruption.






Wonder why there is a tunnel in this rock? Ans at end of page
Not to forget the exciting rides, wild life in Everland and the magnificent palace.

South Korea is worth visiting, the country is full of excitement, the culture, the people and the places sure will make your trip unforgettable and memorable. I do enjoy it and I am sure you will also.
