Vivaldi weekend

Three weeks ago Saejin, Tony, Don, Joon and I took advantage of the long weekend and headed out of town bright and early (we left Tony's place at seven am to avoid traffic). We headed East of the city heading to Vivaldi Resort where there is a ski hill, hiking and a giant Water park.


Being much too early to check in we decided to get sporty with dance offs,


Air hockey,


and a ping pong tourney.


From here we headed up to the top of the hill to check out the views.



Joon did all the shopping for us so we had bags full of goodies to take up to the room and more cases of beer than make logical sense for a two night excursion (we ended up lugging half of it back down when we went home.) Somehow we managed to get it all up there in a single trip and took in the view from the balcony.


While others took an afternoon nap Saejin and i went for a mini hike up one of the trails and had a drink at one of the outdoor cafes.




Joon met us a bit later and we went to check out the water park that we were going to the next day. Ocean World was a blast. The slides weren't the best I have been on but their wave pool is amazing. You have to wear a lifejacket for this one because every five minutes a single giant sized wave spills out to eerie music carrying you away.


We went back to the room and tried to put a dent in the beer. Once we had a good belly full we headed out for the evenings fun. An hour of singing.


A couple of games of bowling.


And back in time for an outdoor barbecue.


The next day we had a lie in, hit Ocean World and Sauna before going out to eat some more Korean goodness. A good time was had by all and we may try returning sometime this winter to try out the ski hill.
