Two Saturdays in Seoul

We spent the last two Saturdays exploring Seoul - the 2nd largest city in the world (Tokyo is #1).  So much to see!

We actually made it onto the right subway line, headed the right direction!  And Aliza made some more friends.

We visited my cousin, Laura, who lives in Seoul and teaches K-2 English at LCI Academy.  
It was so fun to have a familiar face in a foreign city!  
Nate has not learned yet to cute-ify pictures. :)
 

Laura is great at ordering food in Korean.  
Our first Bebimbap!

Laura has a cute little apartment in the city - with a cute little bathroom.  No shower curtain needed!
 

Times Square Shopping Mall

Having Aliza earns us a special seat on the subway.

The next week: a stop at the Korean War Memorial

Namdaemun Market

Diaper change on our way to Namsan Mountain

Yay for babies!

Up the mountain to the Seoul Tower on the tramway with Brady and Graciela.  They go to our church and Nate knows Brady from Del Rio.  It's a small Air Force world!
