Kimchi land day 5 - lotte world & apgujeong

we decided to visit lotte world on a monday so that the crowd is more manageable.
and indeed, it was not packed at all and we had a leisure time exploring the place.
we took a cab from our hotel since lotte world is located on the other side of the hangang (han river).

we reached in 20mins time by cab and proceeded to get the tickets.
though most attractions and including transport is free for YR given his age, it is not the case for lotte world. @_@
the child fare starts from 3 yo so we duly paid for YR's share and it's not very worth it as he cant take most of the rides as most of them required at least 110cm in height!
and the staff were pretty strict and measure his height each time... zzzz

still, the day was spent most happily, especially the boys, here.
we were here for a good 5-6 hours i think.

 lotte world has a kidszone and the boys were the happiest here!

in the gift shop 

lotte world is mostly for the boys.
it is still at best OK for the husband and me... ha.

after lotte world, we went window shopping a little at the lotte shopping centre next to it.
more DFS shopping!

we left for apgujeong area which is also on this side of the hangang.
apgujeong is a nice neighbourhood of eateries and shops. not unlike other areas like samcheongdong and myeongdong.
however, i found it pretty boring.
not as quaint/different like samcheongdong nor does it offers variety like myeongdong.

still, it was a good-enough place to let us spend the rest of the evening.

last dinner in seoul. what else but grill meat again! lol
this restaurant at apgujeong serves delicious steamed egg as 1 of the side dishes - nice!
can you spot the 2 bowls of steam eggs? they look like rice in the photo.


we made our way back to the hotel before 10pm - pretty early but it has been yet another long day for the ng family.
and i seriously need to pack the luggage, our stuff was all over the room..
though our flight back to SG was in the afternoon the next day, we need to check out of the room by noon still.

our seoul trip is finally coming to an end!
