Today we went to an International Language High school just outside of Seoul. On the way there we stopped at a Memorial to the Phillipinos who served in the Korean War. The school was very nice, the kids performed for us, then we had lunch in the teachers cafeteria and were escorted on a tour of the campus by students. The two girls who guided me we wonderful. The students were all very sweet and sincere. They have final exams beginning tomorrow and still took the time to show us around. We then came back into Seoul and went to Korea House. Our choices here were tea ceremony or traditional drums. Luckily I got the tea ceremony. We were dressed in Han Bok and had a great time. The bowing is very hard, very specific and so is the ceremony around tea. We had dinner at NSeoul Tower and went up to the top where there is an observatory. The views are amazing. Tonight I am going to bed early! Tomorrow we have 3 lectures and then we are off to see a performance!
