High Tea and the Ocean

A couple of days of catch-up in this one. First we start with High Tea at a very fancy hotel. Mimi really wanted to do this while we were in the British Isles. It was a bit spendy, but worth it.

What we've been up to

Yesterday I woke up and felt better, so I went with the others to Howth (rhymes with "tooth," not with "mouth") to see the ocean and go hiking. Unfortunately, I think I overdid it a little because I ended up back in bed at 8PM with chills and fever. Or maybe that fever was a sunburn... Hard to say, but I felt like crap anyway. I'm going to take it a bit easier today and drink lots of fluids, and hopefully I'll stay on my feet.

Oh hey, did I mention that I got a minor sunburn? We all did. IN IRELAND.
It was gorgeous, and it's shaping up to be the same today. I guess we're just lucky with the weather.

Catch-up post

The last two days have been jam-packed, and I'm going to cover both in one post. So brace yourselves; this is gonna be a long one.

I'll start with our trip to the beach. We left Suwon on Thursday night with a car full of bags. I didn't know what was in the bags, but I kind of wondered why they needed to pack so much (spoiler: the bags were full of food).

At a rest stop, Aunt Jung-hee noticed that I didn't have a coat. I had stopped carrying one around since it started getting hot recently; it gets a little chilly at night, but I'd rather be a little cold than have to haul a coat around. Well, she got worried about me and gave me a jacket to wear. I'm glad she did, because I can now say that I have found the least-flattering jacket on me ever.
