Bringing Liam Home - Seoul Tower

The day after we got Liam, we started the day by Skyping with my sister Andrea, my mom, and Evy Kate! It was their first time to see Liam and it was so fun to watch them interact! Then we decided to go and see Seoul Tower! It was something I really wanted us to experience, and I'm SO glad we went! We had to do a really intense uphill hike to get to where the cable cars were, and then we took a cable car/gondola up to the Seoul Tower area.

A Korean tradition is to put a lock at Seoul Tower. It originated with couples doing it to signify eternal love, and now just about everyone leaves a lock. It's so, so cool to see thousands of locks and it was so worth the effort to get there to hang a lock! We bought one there, and it has two hearts - one for Evy and one for Liam.

It was a gorgeous day with perfect weather, and it was a highlight of the trip for me!


Some things are universal....



I used a BabyHawk Oh Snap! Carrier and it was great!

Before we started the major uphill climb, we stopped at Paris Baguette for lunch.




This is only a portion of the locks at Seoul Tower!
