Hikers on Aisle 6

Anything touristy is a long subway ride away. Since I am trying to plan Bonita's visit in such a way as to avoid exhaustion, we decided to stay close to home today.

What would a visit to Dongducheon be without a trip to Soyo Mtn? Bonita was a trooper, and we made some great pictures as we dragged ourselves up and over the mountain ridge. Afterwards, it was a late lunch at a Galbi restaurant that is conveniently located at the end of the trail.

With full tummies and tired footsies, we headed home for a quick clean up before a trip to another Korean landmark - E-Mart!

Bonita had the opportunity to explore the Korean "Wal-Mart", and we brought home a nice collection of snacks. This trip, like the trip to Insa-dong, was a reconnaissance mission and most of the purchases will be eaten - or at least sampled - so we can be sure that no suitcase space is wasted on undesirable treats.
