Birthday Weekend

My birthday was November 16th, and Andy’s the 23rd, so we decided to have a joint birthday celebration from the 19th-20th. 10 of us rented a pension in Danyang, a really beautiful part of South Korea. We met early Saturday morning, took a bus from Seoul to Danyang, and after some grocery shopping…

took a taxi to Hongbongwha pension.

After putting the food away, we were on our way to Gosu cave.


Then, had a barbeque dinner:
It was so windy that the pension staff gave us blankets to wear!
And finally, we drank and ate birthday cake with friends.

During the fun, the curtain rod randomly fell. There were numerous holes in the wall and it was impossible to fix – luckily, the pension owners were nice about it – it must have happened often with how many holes were drilled in the wall!

It was a great weekend away from Seoul – the air was so crisp and clean! Danyang itself was a small, cute town.

On Sunday, we hiked around the pension and took a bus back to Seoul.
