45 minutes later....

Update Time ----

Friday was my first day teaching and it started off to a "good start"...  the sound equipment went out on us. The class started with my "beautiful" voice (lol) having to sing all of the songs to the kids.  Needless to say, enrollment dropped drastically.  HA!  They were so cute and so tiny. They came decked out in their ballet attire. One little girl had on tights, a leotard, a skirt, a sweater and leg warmers :) precious!!!! Most of them knew very very very little English. When they left they had learned what their eyes, nose, mouth and ears were though!!!

Later that afternoon I meet a few people that came by the studio and then we had 3 jazz classes - and I must say that I have now mastered the dance by "Rainbow" LOL - One dance class had a party and they brought Tapolki - and YES, I tried it and I liked it. Oh Yeah -- all my students call me "Carley Teacher" LOL



Later that night Zack and I met some friends in Changwon - Where Hyu Jung bought me a necklace and earrings and she fell in love with my favorite ring --- so I gave it to her :)
We then headed back to Jangyu in a taxi that was suppose to cost us $18.00 but the taxi driver's card machine did not work so we were not charged :)
Today Zack and I explored my city.  First we started off on foot  --- just walking all around seeing where different places were located and such. We saw around 5 churches within blocks of each other. It made me feel like I was in Montgomery with a church on EVERY corner!  Oh, and we found Noah's Ark... its been in Korea all these years!
We got on different buses to see where they would take us. We got on a bus that would take us close to my apartment, but we decided to ride it a few stops further thinking the bus would circle back around and 45 minutes later we were surrounded by rice fields ....... then a few minutes later we look out and saw an OUTLET MALL :)  We thought we had arrived at the Foley Outlets! They had Polo, Burberry, Guess, you name it --- they had it :) They also had amazing places for kids to play and a huge painting done on a set of steps that made it look like you were standing in a waterfall!



This lady was sitting in front of us on the bus and I think from the looks of it --- she gets her hair highlighted too :)
I got to skype with the family while they were having the yard sale yesterday and everytime someone would ask how much something was I would shout out on the computer "give them a discount" Hahaha - Shirley was working those sales and January and I were laughing laughing laughing !!!!

I am thinking today is going to involve a trip the ........... B*E*A*C*H !!!!
By the way .... ROLL TIDE ROLL !!!
Til Next Time.
