West Coast - Taean - Haunted House

Wow.. it's been a long time since I last posted... nearly a month. I've been busy with work an with play. Some of the play pictures I'm just now getting around to posting. The first big one was a day trip to the Western Coast of Korea, we went to Taean-kun (basically the county of Taean).

See pictures below...

The Taean area is a peninsula that jets out of the western coast. We got lost on the way there thanks to some old store lady who gave us the wrong directions. As a result we only had a few hours and saw a couple of beaches. We only got to check out the northern beaches on this trip.

We went skim boarding on the beach shown below till night-fall. I can't remember the name of this beach. It was decent weather and we left around noon and got back around midnight. We went skim boarding but I simply tried to stay on the board for more than one or two seconds.

Then we went to Mallipo, the local large town on the coast, and walked around the boardwalk. We ate some Korean spiced chicken and wandered on the beach while little kids lit off fireworks. While walking back along the boardwalk to go get dinner we came across a Korean haunted house. I've never seen anything like this but it was 3,000 won per person (about 4$) and we got to go in while Korean teens dressed up and tried to scare us.

It wasn't very scary but it was pretty entertaining and worth the money. It's the first time I've seen any sort of a haunted house in Korea--they don't really do Halloween here. The teens dressed up to basically look like the girl from The Ring--think long dark black hair, white dress, etc.
