Blog Day 1: Hello. The Korean Trip is going really well. On the first day we arrived at Incheon Airport tired. We went to our hotel by a bus. The hotel’s name is Vabien II. As soon as we were in the hotel we went to our room and after that we went to a restaurant called Outback Steakhouse. Day 2: We woke up with a lots of energy. First we went to the King's Palace. When we arrived there was a changing of guards’ parade. The parade was so awesome. The palace looked so ancient. After that we went to a food court. I had fried rice with prawns and veggies. Then we went to a day market. The things I bought today were a cap, a model of Seoul Tower, sunglasses and a traditional Korean fan. Next we went to Gangnam. We went to a really popular restaurant called Making Chao. This restaurant is a buffet. The food was really yum. Then we went back to our Hotel and went to sleep one second later. Day 3: First thing we did was Lotte World which is the world’s biggest indoor theme park. One interesting fact Lotte World is indoor and outdoor. As soon we went there I was busting to death to go on the rides. My first ride in Lotte World was called Atlantis rollercoaster. We decided we would take the hot air balloon ride around the inside of Lotte World. Then we went on several other rides. When we arrived at the school there were a lot of girls screaming at Michael. We went inside to see who our homestay brothers were and there were still girls screaming at Michael. I was a bit nervous about how the school would look and how the Korean students would be with us. But they were great and we have been having a lot of fun. At the homestay I like that they always take me out everyday. I have gone to the movies and a Karaoke place. I sang Gentlemen, Gangnam Style and Moves Like Jagger. We went on a trip yesterday to a printing press. It was the oldest metal printing press in the world. I made my own print there of some Korean words and a map. We then took a big tramp up to the temples. At school today we did a Korean music lesson and I was asked to wear a traditional costume.
