In the
afternoon, we drove up further North to the Chungjuho Lake and Sobeaksan
National Park. As it was already around 4pm when we arrived, time was
unfortunately to little to climb another mountain. However, there was an
observatory nearby that we could even drive up with the car – but the road was
so steep, that our faithful servant named Kia K3 came to the edge of his
possibilities, haha – but definitely a very nice way to get up the mountains
with AC on, as it was the first time we were not sweating. And nevertheless the
fact that we just drove up like lazy tourists, the view we had at the top was
still great, giving us a nice overview of the region.
The day was
still not over yet and after another unidentified meal we drove further North
and then eastwards to the coast where we slept in a city called Gangneung. And,
while approaching the coast through the numerous tunnels, it was the first time
that it rained! Well, I guess after almost two weeks, you really can’t complain
about that…
