Hamdeok Beach


We ventured to Hamdeok Seoubong Beach, despite the overcast weather, for a relaxing afternoon.



Bungeoppang

In Korean, bung'eo (붕어) means Carassius, a kind of fish, and ppang (빵) means bread.

This pastry treat is filled with red beans, but it is sweet and tastes like a Nutella pancake!



This gentleman was selling bungeoppang out of the trunk of his car. $0.50 per fish :) Tasty!


Statue depicting traditional Korean fishermen.


Despite being one of the most popular beaches on the island, we had it to ourselves for the day :)







Playing in the sand :)





Tourist shots :)


Traditional way of making rice.





Jisun and her ancestors. 


Jisun bowing to her elder. 




The water was a beautiful, clear blue-green.





Jindo dog 진돗개

Traditional Korean dog.
Yes, it seems like everything is "traditional."




The first dog that Ashley has touched since we arrived in Jeju, she's been a little nervous about the animals around here :)





We have been extremely successful utilizing the bus system on the island. 
Today's trip cost a total of $1.90.


Until next time, Hamdeok!
