To celebrate our spring break, our family spent Monday - Wednesday in the beautiful seaside city of Busan. Boasting the best beaches in Korea, it is also home to Korea's biggest port. With about 3 million residents, it is a large city and there were a lot of fun things to do and see. As soon as we got off our train, we explored the Jagalchi Fish Market (home to some pretty amazing, bizarre and beautiful fish) and the Gukje (Foreigner's) Market. Then we were ready for the beach and, while it is too early to swim in the ocean, it was a perfect afternoon for flying kites and walking in the sand. Haeundae Beach is large and long, sweeping at both ends to create a cove-like effect. At night a nearby bridge (Gwangan Grand Bridge which is, indeed, grand and massive) lights up and provides a pretty destination for an evening stroll.
