Today was a great day

Today was a really good day. All of the seven year olds at the kindergarten school were gone on a field trip to Namsang, so three of my classes were cancelled and I had a four hour break between my six year old classes and my grade sixes. My six year olds were pretty wild today, but even the Korean teachers were having trouble controlling them so I didn't feel too badly. One of the kids even mooned me, but what can you do.

On my four hour break I went to the gymnasium. It's a really big facility and I think it may have been built when the Olympics were in Seoul. Inside it has swimming and gyms and racketball courts etc.. Outside it has an outdoor rollerblading track surrounded by a dirt track, many walking trails, benches under trees and a rockclimbing facility. I walked around outside for a bit since it was a really nice day and sat under some trees to write in my journal and read my Bible. It was a great way to spend the time. I also sat by the rollerblade track for a bit, writing in my journal as they played the Beatles over the loud speaker... the Beatles made it feel a bit like home.

The weather today was fantastic! It was hot like usual, but there was a lot of wind, cooling the air. It was really windy because there is a typhoon passing between Japan and South Korea right now. It has hit the west coast of Japan and is supposed to hit Korea tomorrow, but it's been downgraded to a level 3, so we'll likely just get some wind and a lot of rain, nothing too serious.

Well, Scott won't be home for another two hours and I'm sure he had a good day as well. Because of the field trip he only had three classes today and he didn't start until like 3:00pm.
