Spring Break (April 8th)

The pictures of this trip are on http://picasaweb.google.com/mr.walker.tkd23, http://picasaweb.google.com/mr.walker.tkd6, and http://picasaweb.google.com/mr.walker.tkd7.

I woke up at 11 a.m. and bought snacks and batteries. The four of us climbed Bird's View Pavilion, a pavilion perched on the Karst peak on the Southern end of the waterfront on the Li River. The climb is a bit challenging in sections due to the humidity and the 1159 steps, which took us to an altitude of 220 metres above the town. Once we reached the top, we climbed onto the rocks where Jeremy took panoramas of Marit, Bjoernar and myself. The view from the pavilion and the rocks was amazing! We ate lunch at the Esperanto lady's restaurant again and then checked out the souvenir stands by the river. We returned to the hostel until Jeremy, Marit and I took a walk around the town and ate dinner at the Esperanto lady once more. We returned to the hostel to play pool where Marit and I beat Jeremy and Bjoernar. I then played Bjoernar at Foosball and won. The four of us went to the roof to play cards. Afterwards, I took a shower and went to bed.
