Jeju Part 1 - Jungmun

The bus ride to the airport was longer than the flight to Jeju but everything worked out great! Somehow, on the flight over, we were upgraded to first class. First time ever I rode first class, I was just sorry it was such a short flight. Got off the plane, grabbed our bags, and headed to the information desk. We had a rough plan, if indeed you could call it a plan, of things we wanted to do and places to visit. Our first stop was the south part of the island - Jungmun, a resort area. We couldn't really find a place to camp, even asking the Tourist Information center. There was an area, but it was a bit shady. So, we stayed in a minbak for the night and had panjeong, a Korean pancake (flour, egg mix with vegetables and seafood or kimchi usually). We woke up and explored some of the area, which we had done a lot of the night before, walking around looking for a campsite, and decided to see the falls. Later in the afternoon, it was off to Seogwipo before moving on to the Donneko Camping Grounds.

(The beach at Jungmun - beautiful)


(Part of the waterfall area we visited - interesting rock formations)


(The trail in the area, a nice little hike to start the day)
