Sangju Beach

At the beginning of October, Sarah and I went to Sangju Beach, with our friends Mark, Clare, Bob, Rebecca, Eddie, Daniel, Tessa, and Brian. We camped out on the beach, played some football and soccer, talked to the president of the beach, Spiderman, and ate a lot of BBQ. Spiderman had many things to say to us, such as:

1. You cannot camp under the trees in the grass next to the beach. If you want to camp, you must camp in the gravel-covered parking lot just 20 feet away from the trees, because that is where people camp.

2. You can take a picture of me, but if you tell anyone my real identity, I will run you over with my ATV.

3. Yes, I really am Spiderman.

He said all of this in Korean, so we really couldn't understand him. We followed his rules though, and had a good time.

My bloody mouth. Here's the story. During our football game on the beach, I went up to catch a pass, my friend Mark jumped at the same time, and elbowed me right in the face. Sure enough, I was bleeding a lot. As boys do though, I was proud of my pain, and showed off my battle wounds.

Camping really is fun here! We do it a lot. We didn't have the best time at Sangju because of the camping laws, and Sarah likes Ssangye-sa a lot better, so we will probably camp there a lot more often now.

Take care!
