Got our tickets
Hi it's about quarter past nine in the morning and we're on a ferry heading to an
island called Yokjido for the weekend
It's about an hour from Tongyeong, on the south coast of Korea
yeah we've got our scooter with us, we're going to explore around the island
there's a hiking trail, a temple to see, might do some swimming, lots to do
Yeah, we're gonna camp for the night. We're gonna arrive in about 15 minutes, so... let's go
so that's us set up camp for the night, we're staying at one
of the paid campsites that's on the island. There's three of them but we chose this
one because of that view behind us. Yeah the guy was really friendly, speaks a bit
of English and he's given us a bike to use as well if we want to - Yeah nice freebie
so now we're gonna head off and try and find the start of this hiking trail
it's a real hot day it's gonna be a sweaty hike but the views are gonna be
pretty fantastic. .......Hopefully
So, we've found the start of the hiking trail. We are camping around here
we drove up the road here, and this is the start of the trailhead
breaking in the new shoes today
we'll see how they go
(Del) we'll see how many blisters she has by the end of the day
hopefully none, I've already got my Compeed blister defense balm on
I can tell you, merino wool undies are the way to go
(Del) Ahh, I forgot to put mine on this morning
You'll be regretting that
OK, let's get on the trail, there's mozzies and I'm getting bitten, forgot to bring the mozzie spray
안녕하세요 (hello)
we've only been going for 15 minutes, she's already got a blister
We've reached the first peak already, didn't take us very long - about 30 minutes
so right over here we have a sign for the temple - Tae-go-am
we just finished lunch at the little temple had our cheese sandwiches our
dates and our nuts and Kim was complaining about my thick cheese
that sounds a bit dodgy....
Kim's just informed me it's water and chocolate time
(Del) 멍멍아 이리와 (doggie come here)
let's go find the scooter, head back to the campsite. I'm ready for a drink
Good morning. Morning!
What you doing Kim? Breakfast time. Just preparing some mushrooms, tomatoes...
and we'll make some scrambled eggs
nice easy breakfast
(Del) Who's yer pal?
Aye, we've got an audience...she's watching everything I do
(Del) you're a fascinating sight at work Kim
I know where she's coming from, I like to sit and watch you chop mushrooms too
sizzle sizzle
we're just driving around the island and we came across this viewpoint - it is absolutely stunning
yeah it's about halfway around the island
it's a really clear day today yesterday was pretty hazy but we can see all the
islands round about yeah you can see all the islands on the horizon and
it's gorgeous. Really nice spot
(Del) What are we having today, Kim?
we're having some beautiful brie, oatcakes from Scotland and some apple
Ohhh, look at that! (Del) Lovely brie, yessss. (Kim) Gooey!
(Del) all right I'm super hungry so let's eat. (Kim) Okay, there you go. Enjoy. (Del) Thank you
we're coming up to this cool bridge it's going over to some rocks that are like
way out on the coast
This view is amazing
Heading back to the scooter, time to get the ferry
so we are just heading back to Tongyeong now, our weekend on Yokjido is over
Looks like we should get a nice sunset on the way home and we're just enjoying it with a wee cup
of makgeolli, we're having to share the cup because it's pretty windy and our other cup just blew away
so yeah, cheers!
