So yea, last weekend, I got a bonus day off that gave me a four day weekend. Mike and Derek and Tyler and the other lucky teachers that already knew they had vacation has booked stuff on Jeju Island long before. (
Jeju is the biggest South Kore
an Island, south of 
the peninsula and of a warmer climate that the rest of the place. Volcanic Islands and recently named a world UNESCO heritage site )I on the other hand had to spend hours scouring every possible airline and managed to secure the last two tickets on a flight to Jeju from Seoul. So me and Jenny didn't even sit together on the plane. Haha. Anyway, I was still excited.
Apparently everyone in the country tries to go to Jeju on national holidays...anyway, we didn't really encounter any crowds...just problems finding a car, a scooter, etc.
It was so beautiful....reminded me of BC a lot actually....as well as Hawaii...for most of the time it actually wasn't very warm....but the last two days it was pretty hot....
We saw beautiful oceans, and beaches, and palm trees, and waterfalls and rivers. Ate delicious pineapple on a stick for $1 multiple times. A day. Hehe. And delicious oranges. Hmmm.
Some really crazy lava caves (biggest in the world) and lots of weird rock formations on the coast. Some of the coast looked like BC and some of it looked like space.
A crazy cedar maze that we decidely to randomly wander through instead of analyze. Big mistake.
And yes that is a "lighthorse" in the picture. Interesting no?
Anyway a nice holiday and a break from the dysfunciton that was Kyle and Amy's final days here....
Matt's rating?
8.5/10
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

You seem to always experience something that doesn't happen or exist over here in N.America. It's so intriguing that you can keep coming up with stuff. I never realized the vast differences and depths of differences there are in all these cultures. They must think we're very weird over here. Nice pictures of you guys. Thanks for posting them. Love, Dad
