ULLEUNGDO KOREA

ULLEUNGDO KOREA

As Teachers of Korea International School, Cheusok Holiday was our first full week of vacation enabling us to see some sites in Korea. We decided to take the 3 hour car trip to the East Coast Beaches, hop on the 2 1/2 hour ferry to the Volcanic Island of Ulleung-do for a car tour of the island. The tremendously winding roads high above the cliffs and ocean are only for those who have no fear of heights. A boat tour of the island is a must and provides a relaxing view of the majesty of the island. We then rested on the East coast at the beautiful Mangsang Beach.

If you ever make it to Ulleung-do Island, call Sung (pronounced Song) Lim 016-9711-6337 qslim@hanmail.net He is the only English speaker on the island. He is not in the tourist business but He was kind enough to take us around for a day in his car. And we tipped him very well for his services. And you should too. Let Him know that Deborah and Mary Lu recommended him...
