On the way to breakfast we ran into these furry friends.
They were an advertisement for The Teddy Bear Zoo, so we set off to find more animals.....
I wasn't really sure what would be at the "zoo" since the sign we saw at breakfast was mostly in Korean.
Turns out, it was a really neat indoor play area for kids!
She spent a lot of time digging in the soft edged wooden cubes.
She loved steering our zebra!
These friends greeted her at the "Kangaroo Trampoline".
Just Hangin' with the Monkeys
Next up....a ride on the Namsan Cable Car. It was a 3 minute ride up the mountain with 40 people in a car.
At the top, along with great views of the city is the N Seoul Tower...The 10th largest communications tower in the world.
I wasn't really sure the story behind the locks at the top...until I checked Wikipedia:
A love lock or love padlock is a padlock which sweethearts lock to a bridge, fence, gate, or similar public fixture to symbolize their love. Typically the sweethearts' names or initials are inscribed on the padlock, and its key is thrown away to symbolise unbreakable love. Since the 2000s, love locks have proliferated at an increasing number of locations worldwide. They are often treated by municipal authorities as litter or vandalism, and there is some cost to their removal.
Whitney loved watching the spinning streamer on his hat!
She was a bit cold and tired on the way down, so she decided to sit!
A Twix and Gatorade worked to energize her for a game of Spot It Jr.
We spotted one of our Omaha and Indianapolis favorites and had to stop for dinner.
It was a great couple of days with Whitney.
We've never had much quality time with just the 3 of us.
She liked getting to push all the elevator buttons, use the iPad whenever she wanted, take a long bath alone and all the other perks of being the only child. However, there were a few times she said she missed her sisters.
On the way to the airport we passed the Olympic complex from 1988.
I really enjoyed my time in Korea and getting to see another culture in Asia.
Life is Good when exploring more and enjoying our Asian Adventure!
Next week, it continues when Whitney and I tag along to Manila, Philippines!!!
