Camping, Korean Style!

Thursday night after school, we headed out of Seoul to go camping with the students he took on a mission trip to the Philippines last month. I have heard that camping in Korea is jokingly called "glamping".. which stands for: glamour camping.   Yes.
We got to the camp site and easily found one of the four rented trailers for Jarrod's post-GWAM camping trip.   Inside, we found that it was quite similar to renting a hotel room.
Marc and Emmalyn were PUMPED about the bunk beds!  Marc called the top!
We went to sleep that night.. and it got.. in a word: COLD.  Since Jarrod and I are Americans used to tent camping.. this did not phase us.  We bundled up, and camped.  Come morning.. as we started to move and thaw a bit.. we discovered the floor heat that could have been on all night.
Then we thawed much quicker and happier. 



Jarrod manned the stove to make eggs and bacon for all the students on the trip!
Then we explored a bit...
.. on Bicycles!
Here are the two other teachers (Ms. Bandy and Ms. Corbett) that lead the trip with Jarrod.
We found all sorts of interesting things to look at..
And then had a picnic lunch before heading home.
It was a quick overnight trip, but such a good experience and SO fun!
