Today we went to Seoul.
First thing we saw when we got off the subway was Outback Steakhouse; awesome. After orientating ourselves with where we were we decided to head to the Namdaemun Market. This is an outside market that is about ten square blocks. The first picture is of us in front of the huge market. Kyle got a steal on some stylish glasses and a wool overcoat.
Then it was off to Deoksugung Palace. The juxtaposition of an ancient palace in the middle of modern Seoul really brought to light the developments of the last millennium. Picture 2 is of me standing in front of a statue in the Palace.
Picture 3 is of Kyle in front of the entrance.
Last is a picture of Seoul at night. We had some Korean barbeque in this night life spot. Hands down Seoul is awesome. Also, major bonus, it is only a short train ride away from our house. More later.
Hey Michelle and Kyle,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the updates and pictures!!! I love looking at everything and finding out about how you two are doing! It looks beautiful and I am glad you are loving it so far! Have a great day! Love and miss you both!
Love, Melissa
I love these pictures. It looks gorgeous and exciting there. Hope your Sunday, that is finished now, was wonderful to the end. I miss you both so much. Very cool glasses Kyle, you look the professor role. Wish I was shopping with you, I see a scarf on that pile that looks good. You both look so good. Keep the pictures coming. Love you both lots, Mom
ReplyDeleteYou are really living in an amazing place. Thanks for the pix!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pictures of your apartment, mountains around Yongin and your shopping trip into Seoul. Your apt. is small but you'll make it warm, cozy and comfortable with your presence and love. Judging from Kyle's glasses looks like your shopping was successful. He looks like an academic person in those glasses. Generally Seoul appears to be a great place to live & visit. I'm so glad your first 6 days in Korea have gone well. Keep the pictures & stories coming.
ReplyDeleteLove, Dad Arnfelt
OMGGGGGG you make me want to visit!!!!! It looks amazing and free WiFi?? I can see this blog is going to be a major distraction for me over the next YEAR. The apartment does look a little small but by the looks of it, you would be crazy to spend much time there anyway... SO much else to see and do! Oh and maybe not on here, but can you send me your address there? How does mail work, will I run into any problems if I ever send you something?? I'm so jealous/excited/amazed/impressed/JEALOUS!!! :) Since I'm assuming you (Michelle) will be the one checking this more often, tell Kyle I say hi, miss you both already... such a teaser to see you twice in one week before you left! Have fun and let me know when you get skype or whatever you plan to use that webcam for! LOVE YOUUU
ReplyDeleteHi Kyle and Michelle. It is so much fun reading your blog and hearing what you are doing. It sounds like all is going well for you and it is quite amazing. I just returned from my girlfriend vacation to Cabo, Mexico. It was awesome. Mom is getting a little stronger. Continue to do well and I can't wait to hear more about your adventure. Love you and am sending lots of love and hugs, Holly and Tom
ReplyDeleteKyle & Michelle,
ReplyDeleteSounds like things are going well. I am up in MN & I am staying at Grandma Arnfelt's apt, so I showed grandma your blog. She was excited to see the pictures and here about Korea. Grandma say's "HI and she passes along her well wishes & HUGS"!
Keep the stories coming, as it is fun to hear about your adventure.
Jim
