Day 1 in Seoul...

well actually it's day 2 but day 1 was arriving on the plane and getting to the hotel.

We had a great day today! We started out the day at Ewha Womans University. Then we visited Ewha Middle School. We had a great meeting with the principal of Ewha Middle School and then headed to lunch. Dr. Oh was our host and came to the hotel to escort us to the University. He was so patient leading us through the subway and all around Seoul. Thank you Dr. Oh!

After Ewha we had a great lunch then headed over to the National Palace Museum of Korea.

The first thing we did at the Palace was take a cooking class. We made bibimbap. It is pretty much fried vegetables and rice but with lots of steps in between.

Our day ended with a birthday celebration for Misty! Happy Birthday Misty! The cake was from a bakery close to the hotel and it was divine!

Welcome and come back often.

We hope that you will share this with freinds and family who would like to know more about our adventures and what we are learning about.
Look for a pre Departure picture Tuesday~

It's Almost Here!

Last meeting before we depart! This afternoon we will complete the research component and finalize travel plans. I'm sure a few packing questions will arise. Remember to send emergency contact information and medical information to Kelly.

BTW we will take a group photo this afternoon.
