Everland

We woke up to a non-rainy day on Sunday, so Craig and I decided to go to Everland - Korea's largest amusement park. It was a 2 hour ride there, but it was worth the trip. The overcast kept most of the Koreans away; it was a perfect day to go. There were rides, gardens, shows, petting zoos, safari bus rides - enough excitement to keep us there after dark. Here are the pictures.

We enjoyed another Korean experience of losing our apartment key at the park. At 11pm we had to have a lock smith called to break into our apartment. It took longer than we thought, but 40 minutes, 30 000W, and 2 buckets of sweat later, we made it inside. I now know that a stick, a mirror, a roll of duct tape, and a lot of patience can help you break into any Hugok Maeul apartment.
