Our third full day- sick but determined

After arriving from the hospital to the hotel, I was told that I was suppose to stay at the hotel all day by myself. Um I don't think so, I did not come to Korea to lay up in the hotel while this opportunity is out there for me. So guess what, I pleaded with Dean Vaughn to at least allow me to ride on the bus and he agreed. So off to POSCO, one of the largest steel manufacturing plants in the world. The company motto is "Resources are limited, Creativity is unlimited". Dr. Sang Man Lee explained to me that the Korean people live by this motto, they use each and every human resource possible to make their country successful, and history speaks for itself. After a bus tour through the plant, we were escorted into their boardroom where a presentation was given. Dean Vaughn was seated in the president seat and the remainder of us gathered closely to him. Directly in front of us was a scale model of the entire plant area. Once the presentation ended, the curtains in from of us that formed a circle began to slowly open exposing us to a view of the plant. AWESOME is the word.
After departing from POSCO, we went for, believe it or not, pizza, the student said thank you, thank you, and thank you. Korean traditional is good but after a time you miss what is familiar to you.
Next, we were off to the Seokgulam Grotto and Bulguksa Temple. This required driving up the mountain with over 30 curves. Once we arrived at the parking area, we had to climb to the temple. As I walked along the path to the temple, a feeling of serenity came across me. My ill feelings of the morning vanished. This was a feeling that can not be put into words, but if it happened to me again, I would not fight it. Dr. Lee walked with me and share many different ideas and customs of his country. He shared with me his pride and his devotion to his country. These moments I will cherish for the rest of my life and reflect on them during times of query.
