So Much To See, So Little Time









Had the full day off today to do some exploring before I make the long journey home. Started by checking out the impressive Jusangjeolli Cliffs. Then visited Jeju World Cup Stadium, where some games were played during the 2002 World Cup in Korea/Japan. Also saw the Cheonjeyon Waterfall. Spent a little time at the Folk Village, which is an outdoor museum that recreates specific periods in Korean/Jeju history. Finished my travels at the Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak, which was spectacular.

After my touring was complete, I had dinner with my good friend Dr. Park, who lives in Jeju. Dr. Park spent over a year living in Cincinnati and working in our lab at UC, so it was very good to see him again. We went to a Korean buffet with his son and enjoyed just about every possible Korean food that exists. For those who have been keeping score, it would be appropriate at this point to mention that a Jenny Craig subscription would be an appropriate Christmas present.
