COEX Aquarium (part 2)

 More stories from Coex Aquarium we visited during last week's Children's Day.

We were at the seven sea zone. It's shark-zone basically, but there were other creatures, too, either crawling (yes, literally) or swimming.  

Since it's a holiday, a packed-fully house aquarium was expected. I guess fish also got a chance to enjoy seeing us human from inside their lot.^^ 

We're just in time for a feeding & other-attraction show. The best part? we could take pictures with those divers who were more than willing to smile (really?) through their tubes. At least their gesture suggested so. 

It's the second time Eyra ever posed inside this rather-famous-among-kids-shark-statue. 

I didn't get the idea of this love-tank aquarium. I mean..it takes two to shape a heart-shape lights. But, please come on.....//oh, well..the kids did BUY this kind of stuffs.^^ 

Back with the show, before leaving the show, we took turn to take a picture with diver(s) right behind us...happily smiling (ㅋㅋㅋ) from within the tube. 

Now, we're at the glassed-tube where most of great fish are exhibited.  

A must-see and must-do pose whenever people got underwater.^^ 

Happy Children's Day, Eyra and Freya, too. 

And for you, too, Mama? ^^ oh, happy Parents' Day!!!

Children's Day of Their Own

It's May and May 5 is Children's Day in Korea. Continuing our story of 'making stuffs out of scraps found at home' and --at the same time--celebrating 어린이날 (Children's Day) at home for the kids...^^, I'd like to post what the kids were doing at home. 

They cut, paste, and arrange designed-papers after coloring them. Surely they knew what they wanted to make. 

And after making the first one which looked like a pond of fish, they seemed to be making a different stuff which looked like a colorful fan. 

and I was half right since it turned out to be a flower. Gee..I didn't have the slightest idea of where they got the idea of making those stuffs. But, I am glad that they did. I mean they must've learned it somewhere....and I was right--> School!!! 

Eyra got it from school and now she's showing her sister how to make it. 

Nice girl. I see it as one of the ways they engage and communicate with one another at a home-based activities. 

*Selamat Hari Anak-Anak, ya Freya & Eyra*

니모를 찾아서 Finding Nemo is Back in 3D

What a way to entice and lure children (and their parents) back to the theater in style+money (chuckles hihihihi).

Well, Pixar and Disney have done it again this time. They made the award-winning and lovable characters back to life in 3D. 

I managed to buy the tickets (for four of us) in theater. Where? well..since there was this amazing offer at CGV 중계...how could I resist it?^^

The price of 4 tickets for 3D movie should have been 52,000 Won!!! but...since it is a HUGE discount time...we just need to pay 12,000 Won...

which is indeed truly amazingly too-good-to-be true offer.^^

On Sunday (May 5) on Children's Day, I took the children back to the wondrous world of 'Finding Nemo'

*wait...it's in Korean..^^ ouch..I didn't know it. But, my kids are already getting used to listening, talking, writing, and 'having their life' around with Korean language...so...they are not having any troubles with being exposed to another Korean movie, especially as enticing as Finding Nemo.

The story is so powerful that it delivers smoothly in any language!

As a token of 'remembrance' of being at CGV on Children's Day, I bought them one package of kids' stuff to do during the movie show. 

It's a good thing that it was on discounted price, special for kids. But wait...what were Buzz, Mater, and Lightning Mcqueen doing? I thought it was supposed to be Nemo:)
