If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might if they screamed all the time for no good reason.

Yup, I forget where exactly but I think it's "Crazy" Ludwig's castle.

The fourth one is Innsbruck

Mad King Ludwig had more than one castle, didn't he build a half dozen or so?

I took this pic at Sugar Bowl in the Sierra Nevada. My camera did not do justice to the scenery. The rocks were really contrasting with the fresh powder.

TPJ: That is one sweeeet mountain.

And because I'll probably never see one, thanks for putting it up.

VERY nice. Looks like Kissing Bridge, a ski resort near my home.

Yeah, it's pretty nice. We went to a bigger one later on. It's also a fairly quiet place. It's actually hard to find quiet places in Korea.

TPJawa and XPViking: Very nice pics!

BTW, XP, just how many golf courses are there in the Korea? I lost count of the ones I saw as I flew into Inchon (connecting flight, didn't get to stay that time :( ).

Well, I *finally* got the pictures from the last week of my summer camp developed...

The last picture was actually the last one on that roll, and it turned out to be one of the best. Of course, about 1/3 of it was chopped off by the end of the film, but at least it was the noncritical part.

Phil,

I'm not really sure how many golf courses there are, but I do know that it's quite an expensive hobby. There are a lot of driving ranges though. I'll see if I can dig up a photo of a golf course found at the DMZ.
