Day 6. Route 19 : Jocheon - Gimnyeong Olle. 18.8 km
So, after the most fruitful day there came the toughest day on the trail. It was cold and dark; it rained and snowed... I felt cold, wet, tired and miserable. And it's okay. I was walking and thinking - I hate this trail, I hate this day, I hate this weather (almost a little mantra of hate). But at the end, this day brought me very beautiful and expressive photos.
Highlights
- Dark and vivid colors - of clouds in the thunderstorm, of the sea, of the landscape.. Like from paintings of old Dutch masters;
- Panda bear (artificial one) in the middle of the field used as a scarecrow;
- Big packaging box in the middle of nowhere on the field with the address of Japanese consulate on it and indications that it is the diplomatic parcel (!?);
- Coffee and cake, coffee and cake.. Twice on my trail (mmmmm, Korea is the land of super tasty cakes and wonderful coffee);
- Huge waves and the Latvian song sounding in my head - "jūra krāc un vēji pūš, priekos bēdās paiet mūžs" (in English - the sea snore and the wind is blowing; the life passes with its joys and sorrows).
The Thought of the Day
And it's okay
