On a whim, we decided to bring the dogs with us to travel deeper around South Korea. We don't know what to expect and what to see but we packed up our usual road trip stuff - camera, water, towels, some snacks and whatever the dogs need. Brock, the impulsive one, decided to go the beach near the coast of Korea. Korea, as you know, is a peninsula. Luckily, we made this drive and explored deeper into one of Korea's many provinces and see this beautiful country, one weekend at a time.
Almost two hours into our road trip, as you know, the coast did not disappoint and here we are - chasing seas with the dogs, feeling the wonderful breeze on our faces, and just peacefully admiring the view. We are very happy to find this spot - small piece of heaven if you want to relax and a place where the dogs can roam free and play.
We happily drove back with smile on our faces, the sun on our back and the dogs are dead tired. In a world where you get caught up with the work, this weekend was a blessing just because we were able to spend some quality time together. Simple pleasures, little stories, memories made. Yes, this is what living life is, no matter how mundane.
