We went up to Beomosa Temple. This is the temple everyone tells us is soooo pretty and we simply must see it, blah blah blah. It was definitely pretty, but it didn't live up to the hype for me. I actually liked a smaller temple just up the hill from it, better. I'll let you decide.
Well, it's not really fair, because this is the best photo I took and it
was at Beomosa. Those little orange looking guys are persimmons, an
incredibly popular little fruit over here.
We also saw some Japanese Maple trees. They were suuuper gorgeous. Apparently, there is also a wisteria reserve on the Beomosa property, and in May the place is just totally filled with flowers. We're definitely going to brave the crowds for that.To be honest, if you've seen one temple, you've seen just about all of them. They look reeeally similar on the outside. We're pretty sure you can't take pictures of the icons, so we can't show you how awesome the insides were. However, there were some really freaky massive animal-people monster statues.
Below me, here, we have an awesome shot of the mountains. Woo!
And, below that, a sleeping temple puppy. He just sat there out front and took a nap the whole time we were walking around.
So, yes, Thanksgiving went by and we really didn't notice or care. Canadian Thanksgiving was a while ago, and I haven't had American Thanksgiving in years, so, Meh. Either way, here's a great video of a stupid suburbanite lady getting chased by a turkey.
