We are not in Europe....

We are in Korea!
This building is in the Changdeokgung Palace complex. Believe it or not, it IS on a lake! 
Our daughter is spending a year in Seoul teaching English while on an amazing adventure. We are visiting her for 10 days before heading off to Thailand for a 13-day tour.

On our second day in frigid Seoul - it's in the teens and twenties with ice patches everywhere - we ventured out to see some of the sights. We are here over Korean New Year, which is good because Gen has the day off, and bad because many places are closed. We are staying in an apartment in Itaewon, the "Foreign" district, located just a ten-minute walk from Genny's flat. There are so many fine restaurants and shops in the area and we are really enjoying the wonderful food.
 
We are about to head out shopping so we'll add to this later.
