Chapter 5 Part 2

Excited to see the new place, so many questions ran through my head.  Would we like it?  Is it clean?  Are there lots of people?  What's the food like?  The list continued (and for those of you who know me, you know that list went on forever) but it didn't really matter I guess since we were gonna be there for at least 1 year.  We'd make it work no matter what.

We arrived on March 18 at around 6am (march 17-- 4pm Louisiana time) and to our surprise, the airport was dead.  Hardly anybody there...nice to not have to fight through crowds of people.  The process was such a breeze from getting through immigration to getting Honey checked in and through customs.  We were over and done in such a short time and didn't have to pay any fees to customs for Honey.  Awesome!  

The taxi driver was waiting for us with Shane's name on a sign rather than mine...weird since it was me being the teacher.  It was cold outside and in the taxi...he didn't have on the heat but luckily my coat kept me quite warm.  Off we went, heading to Dongtan, Korea.  Fighting to keep my eyes open proved to be difficult.  I was so tired due to lack of sleep for a couple days.  In the moments of being able to focus (mostly when Shane called my name to look at something), we knew we were gonna like this place.  It was clean.  That was probably the major factor that determined it all.  So many buildings...so much stuff.
