Yeong Jong Do

As promised, here are pictures from my trip to 영종도.


Yunha tried to book us a room with a view and when we arrived managed to trade up to a Honeymoon suite. My favorite thing about this photo is Yunha's leaning reflection in the mirror.


Here I am, 10 minutes into arrival, leaning out the window for a cigarette.


We had two beds. I'm not sure why a Honeymoon suite requires two beds but whatever.


A really nice room.


Yunha looking really cute framed in the doorway.


Next to the hotel was a log cabin restaurant that had a small animal pen outside. Here Yunha feeds a horse.


Here is one of several large white dogs they had. On the first day we saw three or four really cute puppies, but since it was raining so hard we didn't stop to take pictures.


Yunha convinced me to try the local delicacy 조개구이. Fortunately, I agreed. It was delicious. Eating this food requires wearing one glove, ala Michael Jackson.


Here is the dinner we enjoyed. On this trip we opted for the half-shellfish half-shrimp option.


Little did I know that the shrimp came with heads and eyes and all the other stuff that turns me off from eating something. I did try one and it was good. However, Yunha not only ate ALL the remaining shrimp but also the majority of the shellfish. That girl can eat.


I took this photo because I wanted to show we were eating on the beach. However, the weather was not so cooperative.


A shaggy and wet dog that Yunha somehow thought was really cute.


The weather was not nice, but at least it stopped raining for awhile.


Here an old bald man poses for a picture on the beach.


We took many shots of ourselves setting off fireworks on the beach. Unfortunately, this is the only one that came out. If you look in the background you can see signs advertising the food we ate earlier.


On the last day it cleared up enough to take some pictures of the surrounding area. These are from the hotel window.


This is clearly an area under development and will probably be a popular tourist destination in the future.


Here is the little restaurant outside our hotel. It was a very cozy place.


Finally, Yunha napping on the couch.
