Horseback Adventure

Unexpectedly, we got to ride horses in Korea!  One of our Korean friends (Juho) took a bunch of us foreigners to his hometown in the country to go horseback riding!  We took a train an hour South of Daejeon to a small town called Gimje.  His dad has connections there, so we got to stay in the community center.  It was nice to walk down country roads and look at cows. 
The horses were white and brown.  We just went around in a circle, but it was still fun.  Some of the people with us (a mixture of Americans, a Canadian, and a Brit).  We learned more about how to actually ride a horse instead of my past experience of letting the horse just follow other horses.  No one fell off, but it was close.  Horses are bouncy! 
Riding a horse is one of the many things we did not expect to do in Korea.
