May 1 - 25 (Part 16) From Mountains to Sea; Finding Stillness in Yangyang
18th May: From Mountains to the Sea A Last Glimpse One last look from our room at Hotel Richell… and then it was time to move on. After spending time inland, it was finally time to set our sails toward the seaside again. For the next few days, Yangyang, on South Korea’s North-East coast, would be our home. We had booked a stay at Naksan Beach Hotel and the promise of a sea view was something to look forward to. The Journey North The drive north, about three and a half hours, turned out to be an experience in itself. Under a bright blue sky, we made our way through a landscape of lush green mountains. Tunnel after tunnel followed, yet none of them felt dull. Some played music beneath our tyres as we drove, while others lit up in shifting colors, even rainbow lights, transforming the journey into something surprisingly playful. Here a video with the music of the tyres: https://youtu.be/kH4h_-myHAI?is=Px_ffYP7NFDG1bYS And a video of coming in/out tunnel: https://youtube.com/sho...
