Other than the hike, there really wasn't much excitement for the day. We took the bus back to our tiny village and sat at the dock. I got some dried squid and we had a few drinks until it was our time to go. All in all, Ulleungdo was a fantastic place. It was a wonderful Chuseok vacation with an amazing person! If you find yourself in Korea for any amount of time, you should definitely check it out. I hope everyone is doing well and loving life!
(This picture was taken from the cable car observation platform through one of those binocular lookout machines the day before)
(The stunning water with trail in the background. The path weaved around the coast for a majority of the hike which made it breathtaking.)
(If you look closely, you should be able to find Katrina)
(One of the many rock formations we went through or saw on our hike. The water was an amazing color.)
(Katrina with a sea creature by the lighthouse)
(Lighthouse)
(A panoramic shot from the lighthouse observation deck - just beautiful)
(Myself from the lighthouse observation deck)
(View of the bridges we crossed from up closer to the lighthouse)
(That's Katrina. If you make the picture larger, you can see the spiral stair case we walked down a little to the left of Katrina.)
(That's me, on the yellow bridge, in the orange shirt)
(How can you tell it's a squid boat? Notice the lights strung from fixtures on the top of the boat? They are used to attract squid. The fishermen or fisherwomen go out at night and turn on the lights, attracting the squid to the boat, and then catch them in nets.)
(One of the many harbors/docks on the island. I would say at least 90% of the boats were squid boats.)
(Steps we hung out on until we left)
(Me and my dried squid. It was flattened so it dried evenly. It came with the beak and all.)
(The final shot before we left the island)
