All of the guys stayed at the hotel to rest and swim. They all are pretty tired even though they got quite a bit of sleep last night. We woke up, but everyone else went back to sleep except me. Jaemin was so impressed with himself because he stayed dry and he said "but, I left my pee alarm at home". He said he doesn't need it anymore. Don't know about that. Us girls went to find Dongdaemun Market and the toy alley. Wow! We walked probably 4-6 miles today. We finally found the toys after asking a police officer. :) We found a firetruck with Pororo for Jaemin and a Pororo camera for Jae and Pororo utensils for Jaemin. Of course we got 3 little fans for the little kids. They're only 1,000W and it does help keep you cool. It was SO hot today. Chelsi got some slippers and hair items, goggles and socks. Kaelin got hair items and socks. Then, we got some little insulated water bottle carriers so the little kids can carry their own water around. We made our way back to the same subway exit and hopped over to the Hongdae area to find Hello Kitty Cafe. The directions online stink and I forgot my little map, though, if I remember right, I don't think it would have helped. We walked almost all of the area and it's a really happening place for young people so it was super packed! We did not go to the free market....entirely too tired. It took us finding 3 different people, asking for directions and playing charades until we found it. The good thing was we found Etude House along the way. So, I loaded up on my make up and we asked the ladies there and we were just down the street by then. Then, we saw PINK! We ordered frozen yogurt waffles. It was just frozen yogurt on thick waffles covered in strawberry jelly. It was really good. We drank so much water when we go there too. Hello Kitty is ALL pink and ALL Hello Kitty. Had we gotten a latte or hot chocolate it would have had her face in the drink, but it was much too hot. Our waffles were Hello Kitty shaped though.
By the time we got to the cafe we had no idea where we were and no idea where the exit we came out was, so we just started walking in a straight line and did find an exit to the same line, so we went back to the hotel from there. Chelsi was carrying my camera on the subway, so she took some pictures on the way back. The girls are finally getting the hang of swiping our prepaid subway cards. We loaded some more money on them and went on our way. And tonight we just have to go to the theatre and relax and watch Nanta! Sounds good to me. Then, more walking at the zoo (Seoul Grand Park) tomorrow.
