Another wet day. With 3km to the start of Stage 19 and a kilometer to our pension after the end, all up it was about 24km (7 hours). A varied Course, sometimes hugging the rugged coast then meandering through farms and villages to climb through dense forest, descending to the sea again.
Spent a frustrating half an hour looking for the path just after the start of Course 19 where there’s a blue arrow saying cross the road and we missed the small faded blue arrow showing the way to the left through the monument. Saved by the GPS!
Olle – traditional path between houses
Just after the Stamp Box we got lost
Fantasizing about coffee and cake; From J Cafe appears with homemade scones and tangerine jam!
Looking back at Hamdeok Beach on a dull wet day
Blue and orange ribbons mark the path
Saw a few of these lava rock mounds
There are thousands of traditional Jeju burial mouns, in the middle of fields of crops
Private lighthouse, fisherman lit a fire on top before going to sea at night
