We are less than 12 hours away from meeting Ian. Our anticipation grows. We are exhausted from the day, but look forward rest and meeting our son tomorrow morning. We spent the afternoon going to Seoul Tower. The kids were excited to go on the cable car that we can see from the window of our hotel. We attempted to walk to the cable car station that takes us up the mountain. Unfortunately we took a wrong turn and realized that it is much further than we originally thought. We did find a park on our way, so the kids enjoyed swinging and climbing. Ben made it a point to add..."this is a park we have never been to. The kids and Justin have spent this year going to different parks around Madison and then marking it off on the large map covering Ben's wall in his room. Unfortunately, we had to explain to Ben that we won't be able to mark this park off the map in his room since it only shows parks in Madison. We ended up taking a taxi to the Seoul Tower cable car station. We enjoyed the ride up Namsan mountain and then the long ride up the tower. The kids liked looking out over the city. After enjoying time at Seoul Tower, we returned to our hotel and had dinner.
Ben fell asleep during dinner and Cami fell asleep shortly after Dana and Justin left to head to Insadong market to do some shopping. It was a nice feeling to know the kids were safe while we were on our date. Who knew that we would travel half way around the world to have a date night! We found some awesome deals at the market. We got several presents and even a few gifts for the kids.
We look forward to updating you with pictures of our son tomorrow. We are excited to see how much he has grown since his original picture.

I am LOVING the pictures and hearing of your time there. It makes me so emotional to live it with you & reminisce of our times in Korea. I sooo wish I was there with you seeing Korea with your family. I bet it would be a blast together. Makes me want to go shopping again too. If you see anything awesome that is Korean in nature, pick one up for us and we will gladly repay you. I know, Dana, how you seem to find the deals and most precious things the rest of us miss. I had to laugh at the matching purses picture. Too cute. If you happen to pass by a Starbucks out there please take a picture. Love you guys! Kris
And the countdown continues. Like everyone who has been following this incredible journey, the excitement and anticipation continues to build. The pictures have been incredible. You have an absolutely beautiful family! I'll read again soon! Lots of hugs!
