On our way from Seoul to my friend's sister's family in Sunch'on, we stopped
at Mansong-ri Beach outside the city of Yosu on the southern Korean coast.
We were lucky to get a hotel room with a spectacular view overlooking
the beach. As beaches go, it may not rival Hawaii, Thailand, or even
Okinawa, but it was a good way to get a break from the August heat and
see how Koreans enjoy the seaside. Here are some of the pictures
I took from the hotel room.

sun on her roof.
My reward for rising early, a beautiful sunrise as viewed from my hotel
room.
