Yes. I miss my long hair. The tube top does not fit well with my short hair.
Unlike the mainland Korea, coastal waters here are still warm, and I saw many people playing and swimming in the water. The beach is not well known to the mainland or other countries, but yesterday it looked like one in Florida or Canada rather than Korea, because more than half of people in the beach were foreigners. They occupied most of restaurants and bars there at night. I guess most of them were from the U.S. or Canada, as many native English speakers come to Korea to teach English. For example:

Jamie, I will visit Nanaimo in the middle of October, hoping to see some beaches and run around parks there.
