I want that plot of land

Ever been to a place and you just want to settle there? I found such a place in "Yong Muh Li" (Dragon Head) on Jeju Island. We took the morning easy and went for early dinner (around 5pm) at a place called Nam Kyung Seafood. It's supposed to be a good restaurant where the North Koreans were entertained when the unification committee visited Jeju Island. About 10 minutes walk from the restaurant was the Yong Muh Li. It was beautiful there. People could pick up shell fish and seaweed on the volcanic beach there. Sunny, nice breeze, breathtaking view. I wanted to get a small plot of land to build a dream house and was told to forget about it. It's a "fung shui" land (yes, Korean believe in the same thing) and no one can buy land there.






We started our dinner early. It was a Korean raw fish dinner. Definitely not something we can get in HK and not even that easy to get in Seoul. There were so much food, the family was silent for 45 minutes. The raw fish that we had was the size of Changunnie's body. Nothing was wasted at the restaurant, the internal organs, the head meat, the skin of the fish...etc were all served. As if we didn't have enough food, we also got a grilled fish (which Changunnie loved)







After the big dinner, we decided to walk along the shore and on the other side (the Yong Muh Li side), there were couple old women selling shell fish and live octopus (yep, what you saw on Discovery Travel and Living before. They chop up the live octopus and you put that in your mouth with some kochujjang (chili paste) and the octopus moves in your mouth!) We were too full to eat anything at that point.




We kept on walking and found lots of horses about 50m away from the beach. Changunnie went straight to one and so Grandpa went for a wide with her. The horses were really slim. The long limbs told us that they are not Mongolian horses (some people said Jeju has Mongolian horses bought down from the Mongolian through the mainland a long time ago). I wonder if that's true or not but the horses looked like they needed some health supplement.





When we were supposed to meet up the driver on the top of the mountain, no one showed up. Not wanting Grandpa and Grandma to run around, I went up and down the 300 off stairs couple times to look for the driver and to update the family. By the time we got in the car, I was ready for a shin ramyun.....
