Seoul Tower

This weekend, Trevor's Uncle Marv and Aunt Lois were in Seoul for a conference, and had some spare time to do some sight-seeing with us. It was really great to have a visit with family, see familiar faces, and have a face to face chat in English! Lexi mistook Marv for Grandpa, so it was love at first sight.

We took a ride up the elevator to Seoul tower, and took in the view of the never ending sea of highrises. It was a relatively clear day out, thanks to a few days of rain and snow.











Its incredible how accurately they can measure the distance from this pain of glass to home. The question is ... where in Vancouver are they measuring to, withing 10 meters??



The funny thing is, its actually a TYPO! We put it into Google Earth to find out where that distance would get us, but found out its actually 8,174 km. OOPS!! I guess its too expensive to change one number.

  1. We wish we could have been there so Lexi could have enjoyed her real grandparents. But we are glad that Marv and Lois filled in for us.
