May Day, May Day

A beautiful sunny day. We've not seen many of these.
We did a long climb to visit the Temple at Donghak. This houses an all female set of monks. Very pretty walk (climb).
From there we went to the Sangsinree Pottery village where were allowed to make our own pottery. The picture is of Robin turning a cup.
In the afternoon we visited Daejeon National Memorial Cemetery. This is one of a few national cemeteries across the world honoring solders and patriots. There was a special ceromony going on to honor the persons killed on the ship about a month ago. There are about 100,000 persons buried here. Very humbling experience for me.
Then it was karaoke.
Oh, yes, we drive here with televisons in the front seat. Kind of scary but they drive well while watching Korean Idol!!
