So the day all started off really well. Partially because we had spent the night before at "jim jil bong" which is a sauna/spa. Maybe starting the day with a cold beer didnt hurt either. We rode a gondola up into the mountains surrounding Pusan, got a small map, some beers and soju, and started for Bemosa. The map we got didn't actually have the mountain that we we looking for on it, but we (ok, maybe myself) decided that the map covered a very small area, and we should go on. Well........haha!! as it turns out, we hike for a few hours, find a small family's sort of restaurant way up in the hills to buy more soju at, and ask them if we can make it to Bemosa before dark. Well, when the guy heard that we were going to Bemosa for the celebration of Buddha's birthday, he rushed off and came back moments later with a bag full of kimchi, and four sets of chop-sticks. Apparently he didnt think we would make it before dark. Then it started to rain, hard. So, after hiking for about another hour or so in the pouring rain, we came upon a road, which featured a large roadside map of sorts. Unfortunately, we still couldnt find the mountain we were looking for. The next car that happened to drive by was a cabby, so we flagged him down to give us a ride up to where we needed to go. We were in the cab for forty minutes. At least we made it!!! Stay tuned for more posts!
