Weekend Fun

Dad had some fun over the weekend, visiting many sights in Seoul, South Korea. Among many things some of the notables were visiting Gyeongbokgung Palace which was the historical home to the Korean royalty and was initially built in 1385...








































We then spent the day visiting different historical areas of the city, visiting several shopping districts and even finding time for a beer or two...















We finished the night with a visit to Seoul tower which overlooks the entire city. The city is huge and the tower offerred fantastic views on a clear and cold night...



















So after a busy Saturday, we started Sunday with a visit to the National Museum which has only been open for about 1 year. The museum is very nice, filled with artifacts detailing the history of Korea (North & South) and many interesting displays. After this visit it was off to the Seoul Station to catch the train back out to the country in time for work tomorrow. A few more days of kimchi (not bad actually) and it will be back on the plane and time to head back home.

Here is a picture from inside the museum and the view from my hotel room.

















That's about it for now!
