Oh, how wonderful it was to be back in Jeju!
I don't love summer at all, but man Jeju almost had me change my mind. Almost.
Thanks to Hostel Lyndon's laundry service, I was able to wash (AND dry) all my clothes (I was in pajamas). My backpack full of dirty laundry turned into a backpack full of clean clothes. Soooo nice.
Now that that was finished, let me go and explore Jeju City a bit. Let me go down Memory Lane as I ride the buses I used to ride and see how the place has changed since I visited/lived there.

I stopped by a restaurant called "Uknow Crepes" for (what else?) a crepe--only to remember that I just had 2 wisdom teeth taken out of my right side. Well, I already paid and didn't want to waste my money, so I just chewed on my left side, even tilting my head to the left for extra help from gravity.
Should I have stuck with only soup? Probably.
Did I regret this choice? Not really.
If I could enjoy it with a swollen face, how much more if I was completely okay?

| My crepe. It hurt so good. |

A former student and I met for lunch at the best Indian restaurant in Jeju: Bagdad (and it's Halal!)
 |
| Seriously, the best Indian restaurant in Jeju, if not Korea. |
After, we went next door for dessert (not planned, but it turned out that way!)

| Dessert: Green Tea bingsu with green tea ice cream and cheesecake with green tea sauce. |
Oh man, that dessert was so good!
Forrest Tunnel in Jeju Island, going towards Seogwipo from Jeju City through the center road of the island.
I met a few others that evening and the following day. Below is a picture of a former colleague of mine (also from Jeju SDA Language Institute): Duke.
Good overall guy, just doing what he can to provide for his family.

| Good to see ya, Duke. |
Ah, it was a good, yet short visit. I'll see what I can do to make it better next time.
Next: Return to Cheonan before returning home to Masan (end of my summer vacation).
Yes, good to see you again, Joann! It's always a pleasure to talk with you about many things! Thanks for being supportive. Sorry this message is rather LATE!
