The blog has begun; well, to be honest, we had a false start a few years back, but this is now the real deal. I decided that Mason and I needed a father/son trip, so we headed 2.5 hours east to Mang Sang Beach. It’s by far the biggest beach I have seen to in Korea.
Driving in through the mountains we got hit with a down pour and we thought the beach day was destined to be ruined. But then Mason got out his imaginary poop gun and shot the ominous clouds away. I was skeptical, but it worked – blue skies on arrival.
We ate hot dogs (thanks to Mason’s Mom), built sandcastles, stayed the night at a hole-in-the-wall motel (Mason was adament that this was not a hotel), rode a 4 wheeler we rented from a seedy guide, ate pizza and apple fritters and shot off fireworks. Maybe we spent a little too much time in the sun though since Mason got sick on Monday, but I guess there is always a price to pay.
