Korea: Rain, Coffee, Gardens, Green Tea, Water fountain show at Mokpo (Day 18)



Saturday 30 May 2015:

It's raining today for a change.
After leaving the (love) Motel M in Suncheon we had a nice breakfast (coffee with cookies) and ditto conversation with the owner of Amor Dio, an enchanting coffee shop in Suncheon. We bought a bottle of a non-alcoholic coffee brewage, which needs to be diluted with water. Yummie.

Amor Dio

the 'Dutch garden' 

We visited the Suncheon Bay Gardens, a sort of Floriade. Among many other countries also The Netherlands were represented with a 'typical Dutch garden' ...  mmm windmill and wooden shoes... arghhh!
It's weekend so lots of Koreans around. The Suncheon gardens are vast and you can make nice walks visiting the different 'country' gardens and more, which we did.






Afterwards we visited the Green Tea Plantages at Boseong and the Tea Museum.  


On we went to our hotel; the Fontana Beach in Mokpo. We had a room with seaview. 
Notice the box in the collage (bottom right picture): this is the rescue rope in case of fire. All hotel rooms have such a box with a rope in it and a hook in the wall where you can fix the rope. Our room in the Fontana beach hotel was on the 11th floor ....


It is weekend so lots of Korean families strolling along the esplanades and later watching the water fountain show. So did we of course, after our Japanese dinner. Lots of colors and music. Fun!
