Maisan, horse ear mountain

So, I finally got a travel book about Korea and now I am going crazy crossing things off my list. My American military buddy, Dave came with me.

We went to Maisan mountain which was an easy bus trip to Jinan from Jeonju. The top of the mountain was closed, so we could only hike up halfway on a lonnnnnnnnnnng flight of stairs. On the way down, we found the piles of rocks that a monk made without any cement. They've been there a long time, like the inukshuks in Canada.

A Korean women kind of kidnapped us, but she found us a quicker bus back to Jeonju. It was honestly the craziest bus ride in my life. He went around the curves and we got thrown around the bus. I took a video, enjoy.
