First we went to North Seoul tower. Fortunately, thanks to the tips of others who have been here before, we took a cable car up the mountain. We put our love locks on (pics to follow - they are on a different camera) and went to the top of the tower. I knew Seoul was big, but man, looking out over the whole city really struck me.
We grabbed a quick bite to eat at the bottom of the tower (first meal in Korea was American food - but it was quick and easy so we went with it). We had a delicious burger with chipotle peppers :)
After the North Seoul tower, we came back to our hotel for a short nap - or so we thought. Four hours later, we woke up stunned that we slept until 7pm. We packed up and headed to the cat cafe.
The kids had a blast playing with the cats for over 2 hours. They were closing up at 10, so we essentially played until we were kicked out.
Elie was thrilled to be around so many cats, and Levi had fun pretending to be a cat.
Next we explored the street vendors and tried a few different treats (hatteok, chicken/something green on a stick, fruit), and we found a noodle shop that the kids thought was amazing. Finally we headed back to our hotel, and fortunately we made it out of the subway gate closest to our hotel right before they closed it (11:30). After heading to bed, Levi thought it was time to play at 3:30, so we were able to enjoy the sunrise on this beautiful Monday morning.
We are going to our agency to meet Richard in just 4 hours. We are way too excited to sleep. We will have one more meeting with him on Wednesday, and we will go to court on Thursday. Please be on prayer for our meetings, court hearing, and jet lag recovery.
