Just got on the train to Busan, the KTX train - it travels 180 mph, so it takes about 1/2 the time as traveling the country by car. Our group is filling up a couple of the train cars. We'll get a chance to see the scenery in the country... get out of the big city for a while. Busan is right on the Ocean and we plan to take in the boardwalk by the hotel and visit an aquarium. We'll be there for a couple of days, then back to Seoul for a few days before our trip to JeJu Island..
This is a picture outside of our hotel in Seoul from the 8th floor - in the distance is Seoul tower, located on Namsan mountain. Although it looks far away, it's a short walk to get to the cable car that takes you to the top. Last time we were here picking up Claire, we went to the tower in the evening and rode the cable car and saw the lights of the city. We hope to get back there on this trip.
Last night was a "chat" time for kids and a different one for parents. We had a chance to talk about some of the more significant experiences we've been having - especially after the birthmother talk yesterday. It's so wonderful to be able to talk to other parents who have the same feelings, concerns and questions about our kids' emotions and experiences.
Ok, now off to see the countryside outside the train windows. 2 hours we'll be there!
