Today was another awesome day in Seoul! We are struggling adjusting to the fifteen hour time difference. We are all ready to go to bed at five pm and up at two am. We got back to our hotel last night at about 5:30 and when we hit our beds we were out! When I woke up about three hours later Chase was just sitting there on Zack's Ipad trying to figure out all of the new technology that he has missed out on. He can't believe all this tweeting, instagraming, and face timing. Face timing has been great! He has already been able to talk to Hunter, Hayley and Cruz. We are just waiting for Haden to slow down long enough to give us a call.
Our second day in Seoul was another very interesting and amazing one. I am getting a little used to never seeing a landscape. Just tall buildings everywhere. They never stop. I keep thinking once there is a break in the buildings I will be able to see and figure out where we are in the city. But they never end. We did go to the Seoul tower and there you can see just how big and populated the city is.

Yesterday we started the day with Chase, Kyle and Zack going to the church to play basketball with the other missionaries. After that we met his ward mission leader from Yeong Dong Po and his family for lunch. Zack and I would never survive in Seoul! The food is so interesting. We went to the largest fresh fish market in Asia. You just walk down the isle pick your fish or other ocean animal, argue over the price and then the they club the fish right in front of you walk back and slice it up for sushi. Doesn't just hearing about it make you hungry? I wish that I could send the smell along with these photo's. Poor Zack was almost green!
Chase loves the Ouh family! These two little ones were so cute and they love Chase. After lunch we walked down to the Han river and rode in the pedal boats.
We wanted to take a picture of the little girl Chai Won as she stood there her mom and dad asked her to smile and this is what she did. Ha I loved it! It is what all Koreans do when they have a photo taken.
After lunch we met up with Ming Jung and we shopped through Myoung Dong. It was crowded!
We had to help this lady re translate her Korean to English. It is supposed to say there is no fee for currency exchanges.
He stands out in the crowd!
