Kyungju Pictures

Until I get around to writing about the fabulous weekend, here are some pictures from Saturday's rainy trip to Kyungju. (Pictures by Ryan)


Women waiting for the bus.



Most of the people who went standing in front of the main gate at Bulguksa.




Lunch



Lots of fog at Seokguram Grotto (on top of a mountain). This was less than 50 meters away.



Where did they come from?!



Kendall after the motorcycle accident. A bus changed lanes without signaling. Because of the wet roads he couldn't stop in time, so swerved too sharply, tipping the bike. A couple of cuts and bruises, yet the guy at the fire station bandaged him up pretty well!



There was some kind of special event, so tons of people were there. It was funny to see the monks in traditional clothes, yet carrying umbrellas and some wearing Western-style athletic shoes!



On of the outside hallways at Bulguksa.



Roger and his wife in the van. He was being extraordinarily silly and we were all laughing to the point of tears!



Another temple building.



The statue is alive!



Walking in the rain.



At Seokguram Grotto



Some kind of weird fruit that sounded a lot like the Korean word for "ice." Everyone tried a little--was it ever slimy!
