Geoje(Koje) Island, South Korea (Nov. 5-7, 2011) - Experienced autumn Part 1

Just last long weekend, The Family spent a 3-day vacation at Geoje(Koje) Island
in South Korea.

Geojedo or Geoje Island (also spelled as Koje)   is the principal island of Geoje
City on the southern coast of Gyeongsangnam-do province of South Korea.

The island is known for its natural harbors. The second and the third largest
shipyards in South Korea are both located on this island - Daewoo Shipbuilding
and Marine Engineering(DSME) in the city of Okpo and Samsung Heavy
Industries(SHI) in the city of Gohyeon.

We went there to visit our 2-months old niece. Our last two visits there were
during their Spring season and now its Autumn or Fall.  Temperature was only
from 15-20 degrees celcius which was just enough for light jacket wear.

We enjoyed the nature trip.  See how the leaves of the trees burst into colors.






Lovers in Autumn....watching the leaves turn yellow from green, to orange, brown
or even purple....
