Magnificent Maisan...






This past Sunday we spent Mother's Day hiking up a mountain at Maisan National Park (about 1 1/2 hours from Taejon) with a few colleagues and Korean friends. It was a beautiful sunny day (it felt like late June or early July weather in Ontario), and hundreds of stone pinnacle sculptures surrounded a small temple next to a sheer rock face. The scene resembled something from Lord of the Rings... very ancient-looking and myterious. It seemed as if dwarves might surface at any moment. It was a great day (alas, without any dwarf sightings).
