So check this insanity out: We have about 100 kids playing games outside in the parking lot when all of a sudden this huge truck with a giant cylindrical tank on the back pulls into the parking lot. One of the American teachers turns to me and says, "We should go inside, that truck's about to spray the entire perimeter of the camp with an anti-mosquito pesticide." I was like "Wait, shouldn't we get everyone to come inside then?" He was like, "Waste of time. The Korean government says the pesticide isn't harmful so none of the Koreans worry about it."
So by now, he and I are having this conversation from inside the lobby and we're watching the huge truck idling near a group of kids that are playing. Right as I'm hearing all of this, the truck starts moving forward and simultaneously spaying a HUGE cloud of pesticide right into the faces of about 30 kids. See this photo? The cloud of pesticide is so thick that you can't even see the kids inside of it!!!
A few minutes later, all the kids want to come inside because their eyes, mouths and throats are all "burning" and it's not fun to play outside until "the clouds are gone." Scaaaaaaaaaary!
