Super Sunday: hiking, coupling, theatrics, temples...

Usually, Sundays consist of relaxing. Lazy Sundays, Super Sundays, anything that required minimal energy allowing my mind and body to recover from the weekend and prepare for the workweek. Perhaps that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but generally speaking, Sundays have always been a pretty chill day. Yesterday however, a group of us decided to go hiking and since dear Bill hasn't been in the hills of Gimhae, we decided to make an afternoon of it.

From left to right: me, Wes, Abbey, Bill and Scott (who just arrived on Friday morning and has unsuccessfully been battling his jet lag). This is at the top of the mountain and we were all pretty sweaty and stinky but felt good breathing in the fresh air that the city lacks.

On our way up to the mountain, we met this little man who was hanging out in the adjacent park with his fellow old man friends. He brought it upon himself to be our guide. He was kind of annoying.

A view from the top.

Abbey and I thought we'd take a moment and enjoy the scenery while we expressed our love for each other.

There was an outdoor gym type of area with this great platform, which is usually used for having a picnic or a rest. Lucky for us, no one was occupying it and people started showing off their skills.

At the bottom of the mountain was a temple. Inside the main room the lanterns covered the ceiling. Everything was very colorful and ornate.

Great day had by all. Glad Bill got a chance to go hiking finally. Maybe again next week...

  1. I can't go hiking again next weekend - I'll be in Canada.

    Jeez, try to keep up.

  2. I wish there were random wooden platforms around my house where I could show off my ab routines.
