It took me a little while to get over the jet lag once I got here. I wish I could have come by airplane, but NO, I had to travel by mail. The family I am visiting is a military family, so their mail has to travel to California first, then once I arrived in California, I was put on a ship and sent all the way across the world! I don't remember how long I was on that ship, but it was a LONG time. The family I am visiting is GREAT! They love having me. The first stop on my journey was to the Seoul American Elementary School. I went to first grade. I've included a picture of the class. I am on the front row, sitting with the little girl in the orange pants. See the teacher in the back? She is holding the Korean flag. School was fun, but first graders are BUSY! They work so hard, did you know these American children are learning the Korean language and Spanish? I learn how to say hello in Korean - aun-yan! Try it, aun-yan!

The teacher looks like a counselor we once had here in Texas!
