Jeonju swimming hole

So when we went to Jeonju for the soccer game, we saw a really pretty river and we wanted to explore it more. We finally made it back, and we followed the river, which turned out to be a crick, out of the city into a really picturesque valley. aways up the valley, we found a semi-secluded "swimming hole. We didn't have our swimming suits, but that didn't stop Christina from trying out the water.
I didn't get in, but we have already made plans to return and spend a few hours swimming. We are really excited about our find because we have discovered that swimming pools in Korea are for swimming. If you want to play in the water, you have to go to an amusement park, and they are pretty spendy.


This is one of my attempts to capture an accurate image of how pretty the flowers are here.
