Camping on Geoje

This weekend we went camping with the Jinyeong crew to Gujora Beach on Geoje Island. We were all kitted out with our £10 Tesco tents, our camping stove, and our most important item; 'John Adams'- our inflatable killer whale. We got the bus to Sasang Busan, took another bus to Jangseungpo, then took city bus 61 to Gujora. The beach was really beautiful surrounded by mountains and the shape of the cove means that the tide is never very strong. We camped right at the end of the beach and we had it all to ourselves. We spent the day swimming, and playing games. Ed was definitely most prepared for the sun; he had his parasol, wore a t-shirt and cap all day, regularly applied sun lotion, and STILL managed to get sunburnt!!! Throughout the day whilst swimming, everyone (apart from Nina) complained that they felt that they had been stung in the water. We later found out that the south coast of Korea currently has a huge influx of jelly fish with apparently up to 1 million jellyfish per square km!! No one had a bad sting though, it felt more like a nettle sting. In the evening we feasted on a BBQ followed by a game of volleyball in which the girls destroyed the boys. The boys then tried to get their own back in a penalty shootout but were resoundly beaten again. The night descended into Ed performing the Gangnam Style dance routine as a dare in front of bemused looking Koreans. For those who haven't seen or heard Korea's newest pop sensation (62 million views!) here it is and here are some pics:
