BUSAN shout out
to the many Busan climbers who turned up this weekend. . . great to meet so many new people and Dong-il! and get out to some old favorites and amazing new crags! It was one good-experience followed by another.
Thanks Kris (with 2 F's), our visiting climber from Japan, who waited for me at Amnan Friday as I bussed into Busan a little later than I hoped; Grant who put us (and Tim of Geoje) up for the weekend, showed us around town. . . a gracious host and most energetic person; everyone who turned out Saturday: Robin, Eddie, Aaron, Chad, Sashi, Allison. . . (who am I forgetting?) and especially those who made both days. . . Dong-il (who gets a special thanks for taking us to Bird Chorus Rock and treated us to brunch), Jake, Drew, Tim!
Thanks, too, to the pink flowers, ladybugs and sunshine that greeted us Sunday. . .
I will start my work-week a happier person! OH-- and I should mention that along with the makkoli, dancing, pool, darts, double-dinners, and norae-bangging, we got in a lot of great climbing! Congrats to Drew on his first lead and Tim on his first lead belaying:-) Hope to see all of y'all at the Meet and Greet and at least some of y'all in Jeonju!
