In Lab 2.3 the instructions say to use the "public IP address of the node". Should the instructions instead read "the public IP address of the pod", or "the public IP address of the service?". If it's truly the IP address of the node, then I assume I'd run kubectl get nodes worker -o wide, but there's not an EXTERNAL-IP associated with the node. The example in instructions reference that the IP in their case is 35.238.3.83, however it's unclear where this came from since it's not shown in the output of any of the commands...

    Hi Ryan,

    You could try your GCP console to find the public IPs of your nodes.

    Pods do not have public IP addresses since the pod network is private. The service in this scenario does not have a public IP associated with it either.

    Regards,
