Thursday, May 10th
We met Deputy Assistant Secretary Stout during the morning. Then I quickly grabbed lunch because I volunteered to work the afternoon too. Italian media and Al-Jazeera came through so the Pavilion asked for a couple student ambassadors to stay behind and run the shows.In the evening a group of us went out to dinner. We walked past all the restaurants super close to the Expo so that we could try something new. The place we went to was okay. I'm not sure if they made their food less spicy because we were Americans or that's just how they do it, but their 고추장 (go-chu-jang, spicy red pepper paste) actually tasted sweet. It was weird. But the owners were super nice. They even gave us fruit as a free dessert. Then we stopped by the bakery next-door because delicious smells of cinnamon were wafting out. We spent like $3 in there total and they gave us a free packet of cookies.
