Our city is well-known for its traditional paper (hanji). This weekend there's a festival in town, so today we went with my new half co-teacher Jasmine and her family. She has two girls, ages 5 and 10. The 10 year old goes to an English Immersion school, and her English ability is amazing. Her parents pay good money for this school, and her mom told me that she wasn't sure if it was the right choice, but after seeing her talk to B and I she's happy with her decision. It's fun for us to chat with her, and we're always amazed at how much she knows.
The 5 year old is very curious about us and loves coming to our apt. She even picked out her fave dress, had her sister do her hair, and brushed her teeth by herself b4 coming to see us today (she's age 4 by western standards). She's always happy and smiling, and we had fun today with the family.
Tomorrow we may head back to the festival, as we didn't take everything in yet. Luckily we found a PC room near our home, so we're not hurting too badly yet, just wishing we could get the pics on to correspond with our stories! The weather was perfect today, so we're glad we were able to spend it outdoors.
