out with cousins

Thursday, July 19th, 2018

My sister-in-law took us to Itaewon for NY Pizza with cousins.

This gotta be Chloe’s favorite place in Seoul… brightly lit two-storey Starfield Library. It’s located in the largest underground shopping center in Asia, COEX Mall and it’s filled with over 50,000 books.

My first ddukbokki. Yum! 

Galbi & cold buckwheat noodles

Kids and I decided Nang-myun is our favorite Korean food this summer. It is perrrrrfect.

The last leg of the trip:  4 hours ride to go home.

Thank you Mom & Dad for this amazing, unforgettable trip!!! And thank you to my kiddos for being awesome travel buddies! You guys are my favorite kids! 😉

breakfast champions

Today’s the last day we’ll have this amazing breakfast buffet at hotels. I was just getting used to this lifestyle!

Seafood feast, live octopus and all

Tuesday, July 17th, 2018

Here’s the live octopus~~~!

She took it for the team! Haha, I ate one too but after it stopped wriggling. Chloe ate one too!

Gimbop & honey bread

Tuesday, July 17th, 2018

As our journey continues and we do have a quiet some time on the bus. Kids are good at entertaining themselves.

Can’t forget the sunscreen in-between the stops.

Our next destination brings us to a famous fish market

This town is known for Honey bread (? ?) and where Chungmu Gimbap (????), which is Shane’s favorite kind of Gimbap, originated from!

He had two servings by himself. Whoa.

Today’s lunch special: Sea Squirt

After the big breakfast, we head to explore this port city.

Dinner in Yeosu

Sunday, July 15th, 2018

We arrived in Yeosu for dinner. It is a port city on South Korea’s East China Sea coast.

View from our hotel room.

Suncheon Bay Wetland Reserve

Sunday, July 15th, 2018

Our next stop is Suncheon. It is a city in South Jeolla Province,  a scenic agricultural and industrial city

We spent about 2 hours enjoying the reserve by doing the walk along the boardwalk through the reeds.

Beautiful boardwalks through the reeds despite the blazing sun. 

So peaceful…

We saw crabs and mudskippers on a mud or climbing up grasses.

We rushed into a cafe to cool off. It is H O T.
