Jr. Winter Camp--Pt. 2 (30. Jan.)

Welcome to Jr. Winter Camp part 2!

On Sabbath, I was involved in the English Golden Bell--a quiz game for the kids. There were a few other activities. On Sunday morning, I decided to go on the nature trail I saw when I explored the prememsis on Friday.

Come with me, please.

After going down the stairs, I truned around and saw this picture.

Walking back down the main road to where the nature trail begins.

About 10 minutes after I started on the trail, this sight greeted me.

My dad needs to teach me how to use a compass . . .

Yay for pagodas!

Looking back down to the stairs I just climbed.

The panoramic view from on top the pagoda.

I like it here, but I should go.

The map. I'm pointing to where I currently am. The next big brown spot on the trail is where I took the next few pictures.

The pagoda I was just at.

Again, only further away.

Looking out to the sea. Can you see the blue and pink "H" from the entrance?

I just climbed a pair of parallel bars. . .

. . . as my shadow proves.

I keep on walking . . . when all of a sudden . . . is that a bridge?

Yes! A suspension bridge! Yay!

Boo. It's not very high. If I had dropped my camera, I wouldn't have been too upset--it was that short off the ground.

Oh well, it was fun.

What? Another obstacle course thing?

Oh! Now I understand! This is part of an obstacle course for the kids who come here. Must be for the summer, 'cause I don't think any of the kids tried it this weekend. I would've loved to try this! But lunch was in about 15 minutes--then departure back to Cheonan right after.

Oh well, this made my weekend--the excursion in nature.

Jr. Winter Camp--Pt. 1 (28. Jan)

Wow.

I didn't realize so much time had gone by since I last posted.

Well, I've got time now and let me show you a bit from the Jr. Winter Camp I joined in during the weekend of Jan. 28-30.

The bus we rode in for 2 hours.

The view from our room window in Ansan English Village.

My bed. We had bunkbeds. Boy, have I missed them!

Naturally, I wanted the top one (there were 3 bunkbeds). Only problem is the top bunk was too close to the ceiling. But it was still ok.

Our hallway.

The gym, with the interesting writing.

The hotel/dormitory we were staying in.

From here on, I decided to explore the premesis.

Focusing on the pillars at the entrance.

Some guy reading . . .

I decided to experiment with him.

Ok, enough, time to move on.

Animated sign on the hotel/dormitory.

At the parking lot.

Where do you need to go?

"P" for Parking!

"S" for "Sports Complex"!

Oh, pines!

From almost the entrance.

Beside the entrance . . .

. . . the sign from the road . . .

. . . and finally, the entrance.

Behold, Gyeonggi English Village--Ansan Camp.

The map of the area.

Never set foot in this building.

This one cracked me up: "Open Cafe" and it was closed.

The roadway back to the parking lot, or from the parking lot--however you want to look at it.

An amphitheater behind the hotel/dormitory.

From the balcony on top of the entrance, looking out.

From the eastern side of the hotel, looking west.

Inside the learning building.

It was really cool and creative in there!

Yeap, I cannot ignore chandeliers. . .

. . . nor stairs.

Hmmm, the creativity inside this bulding abounds.

Looking down on the lobby.

My attempt in getting all six pillars (with their messages) all in 1 photo.

Doesn't it look like an eye?

Back outside.

Okay, this is enough exploration for the day. Part 2 is coming next!
