also,the beauty of the island is compared with Hawaii.
(Jeju was chosen as one of the 28 finalists for the New 7 Wonders of Nature at www.new7wonders.com)

The plan is we will take a bus on Friday night,27,Aug as soon as you finish your ordinary work and sleep in the bus as tight as possible. We will arrive at the bottom of the peninsula and take a ferry to Jeju and we will start our expedition~!

That schedule is totally ambitious. I can't see how you'll be able to keep it unless you drive like a complete maniac and/or go so fast at each place that you can't even enjoy them.

Based on more than a decade of living on the island I have to agree with the previous poster. The person who put this schedule together apparently knows little, if anything, about the time it takes to travel around Jeju and visit the sites described.
