Reflections of parents of not-so-young-kids-anymore
A work colleague who saw our Facebook posts of our Jeju trip over the last several days messaged me and encouraged us to find time to visit Nexon Computer Museum. Nexon is a South Korean-Japanese video game developer and publisher,
Umutgae Beach is a pretty long stretch, with the Haenyeo divers performing at the section that’s at the foot of Seongsan. We caught the 2PM performance today, and didn’t expect it to be this well attended. There were large groups
Aside from our ascent up Seongsan Mountain earlier this morning, a visit to Seopjikoji and also the Haenyeo diver performance later in the day, the rest of Day 06 today was basically filler itinerary around these three places, and also

It was past noon when we got to Manjanggul Lava Tube, and a visit to this cave system was one of the key highlights of our Jeju trip. This cave system had been closed for 2.5 years for safety upgrades,
