We begged off today, finally pleading for one real personal day (24 hours) to take a break from our insane and unforgiving schedule. Miryang helped make arrangements after Jaime went down sick with Sylvia and Travis both not far behind her.
We did not get exactly what we were hoping for, but we were met half-way. Well ... maybe 1/3 of the way. Upon arrival in Ulsan we had a large group lunch, met ranked members of the Ulsan clubs, and met our host families.
After a couple hours of food, speeches, and pictures, we were finally released to our host families.
While we certainly are still in performance mode, I think we are all thankful that we did not spend the entire day being dragged around museums and offices and parks (oh my!). Oh, and let's not fail to mention getting out of the huge honkin' uber special dinners that our hosts are so thrilled to serve to us. (Although I still ended up eating more than I was physically comfortable eating. Blech.)
Tomorrow morning it's back to the full-on balls-out schedule we've been on since we arrived. We're hoping that some clubs will at least empathize with our plight and will keep things light and fun during our last week here.
Keep your fingers crossed for us!

A little tired of touring and the same 'ol food? Read the last few days of the Norway blog! I think I made a reference to feeling like a caged bird being set free in Germany (where I spent a week after the Norway gig). Hang in there and enjoy your last week! It truly is an experience of a lifetime!
