First Impressions of our schools

Ok, I am finally going to write a post seeing as how Micah has been monopolizing the blog, I think it's my turn. When we first got into Seoul airport we were picked up by a driver and taken out to his van where we had to shove one of our bikes into the middle so Micah had to sit sideways on the seat for the whole drive. He first took us to my school where we had no idea what was going on. Some lady came to meet us and took us in to meet the principles office where there were a bunch of teachers. She introduced us and it was kind of awkward. She then gave us a cursory tour of the school and told me to come back at 8:30 tomorrow morning. Now I didn't even know where we were let alone where we were living in relation to my school, so this will be prove to be a problem later.
We then went to Micah's school where they were thoroughly prepared for our arrival. His co-teacher, Chloe, met us at the front and took us in to meet the vice-principle and principle. We had tea with them, and the vice principle was so friendly and attentive and the principle looked like a Chinese emperor that I've seen in a movie but can't place at the moment. Then we got a tour of his school and Chloe went back with us to our apartment. Here the driver left us and went out again, leaving our bike boxes (with bikes inside) in the hallway. Ok, I gave Micah a hard time about long blogs so I'm going to switch to another one.
