I went to explore Tongyeong on foot as early as 0830hours. The weather was chill but I like it. Sunny but chill which was different back home in Malaysia. Malaysia is always warm or rainy.
I walked a good half day alone cause Danielle was at Tongyeong Girls Middle School teaching. I just followed the map and the scenery was magnificent. You never realize that you're tired! ^__^

Danielle's home.

A small alley.

Neighbor's growing cabbages and etc beside her home. I love green!

The children going to school - Inpyeong elementary school. They have co-ed for elementary but most middle and high-schools are separated either boys or girls.

The girls crossing the road.

They were late and the discipline teacher was about to close the gate. Hahaha..
School starts at 0830 hours. Malaysia 0730 hours..Aigoo..hehe.

Gyeongsang Dae Hakyo - Gyeongsang marine university's main gate.

Tonyeong is all about marine activity.

I went out at 10 am from Danielle's home and waited Ollergi at Turtle ship. She woke up at 11am!! Because of the budget presentation to raise fund for Yeondae Island. Pity her. So her brother accompanied me around 1 hour for a tour in Turtle Ship museum. After that Ollergi picked me up and drove to the nearest island. From there we took a 10 minute boat to Yeondae Island. The neighbourhood welcomed me warmly and even invited me to eat Jaesa Bap - ceremonial food for remembering the dead. I stayed one night at the island and ate the freshest sashimi in the island! I am so lucky!
