My brother, Josh, and sister-in-law, Yoko, visited me in Seoul last weekend. Although we didn't have any Thanksgiving turkey, we did enjoy plenty of Korean BBQ and other tasty dishes. We also hit some major sites around the city, including Seoul Tower atop Namsan, a mountain in the middle of the city.
Josh and me during our trek up to Seoul Tower. Yoko wasn't very pleased with us when we accidentally hopped off the bus 2.7 kilometers from the top and then refused to wait for the next bus. We figured, if we hiked the mountain, we wouldn't have to feel guilty about all the Korean BBQ.
A view of the city from Seoul Tower. It was a hazy day, but still a worthwhile trip.
Jessica took us to her favorite samgyapsal (pork BBQ) restaurant, but she couldn't keep her eyes open for a picture!
In front of the historic Seoul city gate, Sungnyemun, which used to protect the city from Korean tigers.
Yoko couldn't get enough of the great Seoul shopping. "Fur" coats for $10!!!
