The second day of touring around mom had hired a taxi driver to make it easier for us to get around and allow us to see more. In the process mom had also invited a grad student who she met on the shuttle from the airport. Apparently this grad student and his wife graduated from UW-Madison for their undergrad. Mom thought we might know them, in the past I would have said there was no way as the school is massive and the chances of knowing someone are small to nil. This time I bit my tongue however as every time this happens I do seem to know them. And as was the case Caitlin knew him (Jeff) and I knew her (Crystal). Talk about a small world. Needless to say it made for a fun day of tooling around Jeju and taking in the sites. We managed to stand at the top of a volcano, walk in a lava tube, eat a delicious meal, witness idol worship and see one of the many waterfalls. All in all it was an awesome day.
 |
Our first stop was a volcanic crater. On the hike up the crater we went by a pretty field of wheat. |
 |
Caitlin, Tommy and myself sitting at the crater. |

Before we went down into one of the lava tubes. |
 |
Abigail and Tommy at the spire in the tube. All the lights made it difficult to take the picture. |
 |
Lunch. The shell fish in the center was moving when they brought it to the table. |
 |
After it had started to cook and get mixed up. Tommy ate this up, made me realize how much he is growing up and becoming adventurous. |
 |
We didn’t have time to climb the stairs to the top of the caldera but maybe next time. |
 |

Looking at little crustaceans. |
 |
Looking for more. |
 |
Probably the highlight of the trip, running into a highs school field trip of girls and watching Tommy turn into Bieber. Look at Crystal and Abigails faces in this one. |
 |
The ladies couldn’t get enough of him. |
 |
Another excellent one, Jeff definitely helped egg on the situation. |
 |
One of the many waterfalls on Jeju. |
 |
The diving women we harvest clams and other shellfish. |
 |
You thought we were done, but nope there are more, many many more. Tommy is big in Korea. |
 |
We were able to snag Tommy away to steal our own picture but we had to fight tooth and nail for it. |
 |
The waterfall, not nearly as interesting as Tommy for the young ladies. |
