Health Check

Yesterday we had our health checks at the hospital. Our E2 teaching visa requires us to get a health check within one month of our arrival in South Korea. Once the results come back we will be issued our Alien Registration cards. This is our form of identification in South Korea.

We are excited, because once we have the card we can get a bank account and a cell phone. Then we are official residents of Busan, South Korea! (at least for the year)

The health check included an eye test, urine test, blood sample, x-ray and the usual weight, height, etc. Bob always gets a little sick when doctors have to take blood. This time was no exception. He got a little tunnel vision and had to lay down for a few minutes. Honestly, I felt a bit faint myself...but luckily it's all behind us now!

We recovered with cheesburgers and fries from McDonalds. I brought it home in the pouring rain for us. I managed to keep it dry....everything here is certainly an adventure!
