Us at the aquarium.
Stephen with a really gigantic crab. Their poses are somehow similar.
A shock-o-meter near the electric eel tank. The idea is that you touch sensors on a plastic eel and it shows you what kind of animal would be killed by that voltage. We found the pictures of animals in pain to be particularly graphic. We've mentioned the Korean love of cartoons before - this is the dark side.
Adrienne's favorite part was the eels. She had fun taking picture after picture of all of the different varieties as they poked out of rocks and zoomed around tanks.
Jellyfish.
Korean food stand and restaurant near the aquarium. Outside they sell ambiguous tempura creations, some kind of flat fish cake on skewers, plus a saucy-spicy concoction. The sit-down restaurant menu is in picture form around the stand - helpful for those who can't read Korean.
Adrienne posing with a Chrisitian missionary who was handing out mini vitamin drinks along with Jesus pamphlets. Kids started running towards her as soon as they saw her on the street. She must be on to something.
Stephen with samka kimbap, one of our favorite snacks. Samka means triangle and kimbap is a generic term for Korean sushi, which is different from Japanese because it usually includes veggies and meat as opposed to raw fish. We go for the veggie samka kimbap which is basically white rice mixed with kimchi and wrapped in seaweed. Most difficult thing ever to unwrap without ruining it.

I want a close up of the pigs head in the ritual by the water!!! lord of the flies style! hope you guys are having fun!
For a minute there, I thought the crab legs were the snacks! What a colorful country. We miss you!
Is the Kimbap any good? I really wanna try one of those!!! GREAT posts by the way. I am enjoying your adventure!
the kimbap is really good - i think you'd like it. when i come home i'll have to find a good korean grocery store. the only pitfall about kimbap is that it often has meat secretly hidden inside which we don't find out about until it's too late - not good for a vegetarian :( so glad you are enjoying the posts!
