Day 6: Touring Seoul

We woke up at 12 and ate "breakfast" (Bulgogi, rice, soup and side dishes). Joseph's aunt had been up all night hanging out with friends. Ki Young and his sister Min Hee were out all night working... (Noone gets any sleep here!) Min Hee was forced into staying up and taking us around Seoul for some sightseeing because we hadn't had the chance to hang out with her yet. We left for our tour of Seoul at 1:45 pm.

We arrived at a small bank and had to get some cash for Alex. He forgot his passport and the workers messed up on his birthdate so it took a while to get the money situation straightened out. We finally left at 2:20 pm. We arrived at Seoul Tower Cable cars soon after. The cable car ride was only 3 minutes. It was really windy and cold up on Namsan but we took tons of pictures outside anyway. We went up the tower and looked around as well.











We left there around 4 pm. We ended up driving around for a good hour... stuck in traffic and getting lost. We were supposed to go to a palace where Joseph's parents got married.. but they closed at 5.. which is the time we got there (doh!).





We decided to leave and go to COEX aquarium. We arrived at about 6:15 pm and walked around for 45 minutes.







We then walked around the mall for another hour before we met up with Min Hee and YunHee. They took us out to dinner at a nice restaurant that was pretty far away (and off an old beaten path). You could watch the train as it passed by. It had an indoor and outdoor area where you could eat some food. Pretty romantic place if you ask me... lots of couples were there.

We left the restaurant and dropped YunHee off on the way back to Ki Young and Min Hee's house. We then got ready to go out again. We were taken to Hong Dei this time for some clubbing. We drank at an Izakaya, at 1 am, before clubbing at Q VO across the street. We stayed at the club for a couple hours and left at 5 am.
