The view from the radar we are installing is
The coast line is doted with islands and the shore has lots of beaches and a very ragged and interesting coastline. In the middle of the above picture (you may have to click on the picture to enlarge it in order to see this) in the water are some squares that are just slightly differently colored from the rest of the ocean. Those are seaweed farms. When the tide is low you can see the poles and boundaries of each individual patch of seaweed. I don't know anything about the aqua culture of seaweed, but I have had seaweed salad a couple of times here and it tastes just like the seaweed salad at all the Japanese restaurants in Fort Walton.Also, 100 miles in the direction of that photo above is Mainland China, if you zoom out on the map you can see the part of China that points this way across the yellow sea, which is called yellow because it is shallow and parts of it look brown. It looks very blue to me on Sunny days.
A little south of due west is the end of the peninsula we are on and a small island where we usually go for lunch. It is the Destin of this part of Korea and I will post more about this little town and the stuff I see when I go to lunch there. We usually eat at a Chinese Restaurant there (/irony) but one day that was closed so we got food at a 7-11 type store. I had Bennigans Seafood Alfredo (it had a mussel, some squid and a tiny shrimp) and it came with a Starbucks Iced Carmel Latte. Anyway click on th picture to blow it up and you can see the circular harbor and the hotels in the Korean Destin.
Here is the sun setting on China.That's enough posting for one night. Later I'll put the map and GPS coordinates on the side bar.
