Teacher's Trip

This past Friday, I went on an overnight trip with all of the teachers at my school. Immediately after classes ended for the week we all boarded a bus. I had no idea where we were going or what was in store. An hour and a half later we arrived at a resort hotel and all went to dinner. The meal was Korean barbecue and as soon as we began eating the Soju began to flow freely. After the meal, most of us remained in the dining room for a while.

Later in the night, all of the teachers wound up sitting on the floor of the principal's room drinking and eating more food. Eventually, some of the teachers began filtering off to their own rooms. Some time after midnight I joined the principal and about half a dozen other teacher's at a karaoke room where we all took turns singing songs.

The next morning I woke up on the floor of my room (everyone slept on the floor since the hotel didn't have any beds), to one of the other teachers saying, "time to go to breakfast." So I stood up, tucked in my shirt and headed out the door. Breakfast consisted of a spicy bean curd soup. Later in the day we visited a place called Petit France which is a tourist destination devoted to French culture and the popular children's story, The Little Prince. All in all, it was a pretty good trip.
