Jeju Island

Corey and Sophi went to Jeju Island today. 

It's like the Hawaii of South Korea. This is Corey's friend Byungchul

And his lovely wife. Seeing some sights on the island.

And enjoying lots of new and interesting food!

Sophi is enjoying using chopsticks when they can. 

And still happy to see sights and stores that remind them of home. Paris Baguette - that means they're thinking of Abi again!

I've noticed that in Abi's emails, like the one she sent today, that she gives a quick little summary, aka her little list of "a few happenings" which I like cause it's a good quick way to record events without having to go into detail on it all, so I like that and I'm going to try to incorporate that here. Though I'll start my happenings list when I've actually got happenings to report, not like today. Maybe Abi gets enough for a list cause she's reporting after a whole week of stuff, and if I'm just doing day to day, I might not have enough for a list. I'll use a happenings list if I get behind.

Today was just the mostly normal school for the kids and I also went on a bike ride. Lily took and picked up carpool but didn't attend her classes today. She went to Wayne's do school work. She needs to finish an online BYU class asap before Priority deadline for college applications next Monday night. She's shooting to get it done before Corey gets back on Thurs. So for my ride, I drove Corey's car with Velocirax to the trailhead and then rode my bike up to the ruins from there. It's still pretty with autumn colors.

I did Techy twice to get another mile in, since I skipped the 4+ miles from home to the trailhead. That part of the ride is boring and not that pretty anyway, so I don't mind skipping it. I am enjoying having a car. Lily is too. I'm mentally trying to prep myself to not be in a bad mood when I don't have a car anymore after Corey gets back. I know I can coordinate with Lily so I have the van if/when I ever need it, but I usually don't need it, and I also don't want to coordinate anyway, so I'd rather just let her take it and I'll wait until she comes back, and then I can be impulsive. I've been a little "let's see what the day brings" while Corey's been gone, so just trying to keep things steady with no plans to do anything extra while I'm a single parent.
