too much happened. i will try to remember

.
I am not sure everything that happened this week it just happened so fast. These pics will hopefully inspire my memories. This was the group video night. Where we all were able to recall memories and see the videos each group made. Ours video was awesome. It caused some tears. This was about 3 days before we left.

This is most of the crew that made taking care of Katie possible. left to right we have Julie, Jainee, Vivian. 3 of the girls who spent at least a night at the hospital with her. Taking care of her needs and being there to be strong emotionally. They were put in a position to help a total stranger and stepped up and gained a new friend. well 3 new friends. August is on the far right. He drove and was just there for anything we needed. A great and funny guy always could lighten the mood.

This was from the "dance party" aka talent show like thing. Kate and Kenny closing it out with a amazing duet. It was an overall fun night with some sick dance routines and moves. None of which were performed by me. 



Brought the hammocks out on campus. On the top is ted the hilarious photographer of the orientation And below is Joon and August they were great helps with Katie. All three of them had never even seen a hammock.

  saying good byes. above to our two leaders Jasmine and Justin who were the best ever. Monica and Rachel in the middle. Two head people of the program that most scholars have know clue who they are. But we talked to a lot. And Randy a great guy who will always make you laugh. One of my favorites. A small language barrier but that was the best part. 




Were at the resort with great views and barred walls. Its a resort prison 9-9 lectures so we cant enjoy it. 




There was a spa. Spent over 2 hours in it. There was several different temp pools and even herb pools. and high power massage jets and saunas reaching 95 Celsius. 



 So guns are illegal in Korea but they have shooting ranges. And we got to go. It was awesome. I am not a good shot with the pistol That is the guy reaching over me covering my left eye cause i cant wink. Then we shot some pigeons. I did well on that. It was a lot of fun.

 

 
We went to this national park. It is kinda a big deal in Korea. I am not sure what it is called. but the views were amazing. There was an old village in it. I cant say enough about the views though.

 


Dinner was awesome, we sat on the ground and ate bulgogi. it cooked right in front of us and was the best meal i have had in a long time. Since i have been here for sure. So much good meat. This was a little different than normal. Did u like it better?
