Back in November we took our first big road trip to Donghwasa just outside of Daegu. We missed the fall colors by a couple of weeks but Logan had no trouble finding some to play with on the ground.
PB&J never gets old. Saide sure loves to play with big brother and big sister.
Still no teeth, but she sure loves to gum veggies and fruit.

The temple grounds were beautiful. Every time I go to a temple in the mountains it reminds me of some magical mixture of Lord of the Rings and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.
I can only imagine how pretty this place must have been when the leaves were just changing.
Most Korean Temples have a 'gate of four guardians'. The four kings inside serve to frighten evil spirits into submission. Love the faces!

The lamps were being set up for Buddha's birthday.
This particular temple is home to many stray cats. We counted 15. I imagine the monks keep them fed and are grateful for the natural rodent control. This kind of reminded me of the stray cat park in Rome.
There is our crouching tiger.
Logan is so fascinated by the sound of the monks chanting and the smell of the incense.
What a pretty family I have.
Never seen a spider like this before.
Donghwasa was named for the mythical phoenix. It was originally built in 493 AD. And is famous for its 33 meter 'unification' Buddha.

I set the camera on a rock and ran up a hill and over a river to get this flick. Sometimes rocks take the best pictures... we don't get our heads chopped off...

I love this one of Amber and Sadie. Some day this will all feel like a dream.
