Sunday Monday Recap.

Bamboo!


Hopscotch


Our Walk home (pictures are in reverse order)


Riverside Study


Jingyang Lake from the Pavilion


Pavilion overlooking the lake


Trail beside the lake





So this past weekend we walked and walked. Saturday around the downtown parts of the city and Sunday we walked west towards Jingyang Lake which is the build up behind the dammed part of the Nam river. Like the croton reservoir, it just filled up the quarry between hills and mountains. Very Scenic. 
We got a clothes steamer and a floor steamer(?) anonymously mailed to us. I am assuming from the school, which was nice, because wrinkled clothes and a dirty floor is no good. Ana's testing it out right now. I dont think it works very well. A vacuum would have been better. 
Anyway. Monday was a long day. We showed up extra early to prepare handouts for all our classes, and after class we we're there till about 9:30 doing silly paperwork; lesson plans for all our classes for the next five weeks! And we're still not finished, we just left.

Just read through the blog history..enjoy reading the stories about all the exploring, shopping, dining, teaching..imagining how you are soaking up all that you encounter about a totally new culture and society..AND teach the korean children english, as you are learning THEIR language (which you are probably learning faster than you thought!). michael and ana, i truely admire your zeal!
the pictures of the area are cool, the countryside beautiful. Have a good time with all you do..and may God bless and keep you safe!
looking forward to future postings!
love paula..pomerene,az
