Busan

After almost a year here, I finally made it to Busan.  For anyone who may not know, Busan is on the southern coast of Korea and is known as THE beach town.

Since this was the last weekend of "high season", it was really packed.

I had a lot of fun, although after the first day relaxing out in the sun (in other words, getting sunburned) it was best to spend the rest of the weekend doing different tours including spending some time out on boats seeing some of the really beautiful islands off the coast.

These islands are called Oryuk-do, literally "Five Six Island" because one of the islands has a low point that is hidden when the tide comes in.  So, depending on the tide, you either see 5 or 6 islands.
