driving at night

The first night that we had the car Ruthie and I headed out for a little night drive. It was kind of a special trip for us because we could get out and see things in Sokcho that we would be unable to find and look at closely without a car.
First we headed up into the mountains above Miseryong tunnel, the main road to Seoul to a little observation platform that overlooks our town. From up at about four thousand feet we could see the entire plain of Sokcho, the lights blinking in the distance and the sea a black quilt reaching out from the shore, where the lights ended, it was pretty cool.
From there we went down the mountain, a very twisty winding road, and headed over to Hwamsaa Temple, a place that I had been many times before but which takes on a new beauty during the night when no one is there.
After some quick pictures and a close look at the usually closed bell pavilion we decided to end our trip at a small building built on a low hill overlooking the sea.
