Honey Crown Jeju City

... d been in a cold stretch until a few days before, so the sun felt amazing. We stayed at the top for about 5 minutes taking pictures and then climbed back down.
After we saw everything we wanted we caught the same bus we had come on and continued on the road that basically goes around the outside of the island. It took about 25 minutes for the bus to come, but it was worth it because the fare was only about 2,000won/person ($1.75) for another 30 ...

... communal sleeping hall with the locals. Picknicks, cards, dicegames and the obligatory personal electronic equipment were all broken out to while away the journey and at around 12'oclock the lights were dimmed to allow for a bit of shut-eye. As you can imagin after 11 hours with about 30 other people whose diet consists mainly of fermented cabbage I was pleased when the horn sounded to signal our arrival and I could disembark for a breath of fresh air. On ...

... invented, and having a long drawn out war continue, it is very possible that the horrors going on will slip from our conscious thought and continue unchecked and forgotten. I hope the people of my home country Canada and the people of other countries involved in the conflict say "Enough is enough. It's time to bring the troops home."

If the opium trade is a big problem coming out of Afghanistan then this is my humble and personal solution for this vice. The western ...

... afternoon but in the end, cutting halfway through the afternoon for a 2h trip or being on the road a whole afternoon does get quite similar in terms of the number of possible sights to see in that time... So here I am, in Jeju-si, in Jejudo, on Jeju-do (or is it the other way around? One being the province and the other the island...). Considering all that time spent in Korea yet, I can say that Koreans, once we get in touch with them (and that ...

... as he-a couple hokey sticks. -So upon my arrival, while driving into Seogwipo, I heard a truck or car driving around with a loud speaker repeating a short message. I assumed it was political, something like 'vote for billy', but after hearing it twice more I finally caught a view at the truck and they were selling water melons. -These slick ass Koreans don't know when to stop impressing you. They all are so *******n good looking and ...

... br />Later we hit the casino in the Lotte Hotel. It was immediately apparent that our scruffy westerner apperance was unwelcome amongst the Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, and other asian highrollers. After getting trounced at roullette, we made out exit, much to the relief of ...

... Sightseeing was mostly beaches (which involves more food), and waterfalls. On the one day we planned to climb the Hana mountain (supposely the tallest in Korea), but drove back as soon as we arrived....there were millions of mosquitos attacking everyone. So yes eating took up most of our time, which was perfectly fine with everyone. Korean food (at least in Jeju) was all about kimchi, kimchi ...

... is falling down now. Tuesday, June 5...Sarah and I hike up Mt. Hallasan - we opted for the shorter trails up Yeongsil and down Euromok on the western side of the island as our time on Jeju was so short. We We were disappointed when we reached the top as the trail leading the crater lake at the top was still closed for restoration. Despite the rain and fog, the views on the ...

... of vertical and you actually win - I'll attach a photo)... anyway, this chap came over and starting talking to us. Koreans who speak English often start up a conversation, a mixture I think between them just being friendly people and genuinely interested in finding out about you, and also a chance for them to practice their English conversation skills.

... bobbing our way through the waves. Soon many had their heads buried inside plastic bags and not long after that the stench of vomit made me leave the cabins and run for fresh air on the deck above. I have never seen or heard so many people being sick at the same time! I found a deck chair and sat to watch the waters of the South China Sea that surrounded me. I was soon joined by a beautiful Korean girl who wanted ...
