Friday, May 29--Day 5

I didn't report on days 2-4 because nothing exciting happened. Turns out when you're not allowed to leave the city, there isn't much to do. I think I'm actually getting too much sleep. Our school felt sorry for us so they scheduled a trip to Busan. Here are the highlights...

They rented a bus for us to travel away from the general public. A couple Korean staff traveled with us, so if parents ask they can say we were always under supervision.


We went to the beach. They were having a sand sculpture festival. I think every kindergarten and day care was at the beach with us. There was a whole class washing their hands in the bathroom. Rachael and I went in and received a lot of stares. I saw little feet in front of my door. I followed them up and realized a little girl was staring at me through the crack in the door. I guess it is okay for her to be curious since she is only four, right?




We also went to the Busan Aquarium. Rachael, Alpha and I all have new cameras. We spent forever testing out different settings. I took over 100 pictures in under an hour. I like my jellyfish pictures the best.


As we were leaving the aquarium, we saw a sign for Dairy Queen. We got really excited, but as you can see from the next picture it was just false advertisement.


And finally we returned home...and got our temperature checked. Just a normal day in the life of a few "at home" quarantined teachers.
