A wonderful long weekend in Korea!
Those don't happen often so it was nice to be able to celebrate it.
We had Thursday- Sunday off for Children's Day, Parent's Day, and Buddha's birthday all in one 4 day weekend. Before Jasper's arrival I venture to say we would have taken a plane almost anywhere for this long time away but seeing as we are more responsible and have less free money lying around these days we stayed in town.
We had a walkabout in our city and went to a Children's Day celebration. Picnics, games and activities, food...a regular festival. After exploring that we ate at a great little Asian place which gathers their culinary fusion food from various Asian countries. Yum. Jasper was able to try on a variety of local hats amd looked so darn cute.
Another day we just wandered around and looked at neighborhoods we had not been to since Jasper has been born. Let's face it, we have been pretty boring and responsible since Jasper's arrival. It is nice to get out and wander while still following Jasper needs and cues.
We are trying to plan a trip for a few days in the summer and just dont know if it will work yet with Jasper being so young. Mongolia is the goal but only having a week or less sounds as if we would be neglecting our adventures being as the the country is so massive with tons of things to experience--and what if Jasper gets sick in the middle lf nowhere and we cant return home? Maybe age 2 will see us venturing out in the wilderness.
