Everland

We took advantage of the nice day (well, it was supposed to be a nice day) yesterday and went to Everland.  It is an amusement park similar to Disneyland (just nowhere near as big).  I think one of the things we liked best about it was the way it was all decorated up for Halloween.

This is the view from the park entrance

There was a really cool interactive tree right in the center

We finally ventured over to some rides that the kids could get on.

Is it wrong that we put our kids on this ride?

David and I figured it would be pretty harmless, but Tristan really didn't like it (he started shaking about 30 seconds into it), and Grace didn't care for it after it started getting high either.

This was a much better choice

Grace and I got the front seat

This was our view

I had a great time!

There were some beautiful views

We had a great time in this ball fort!

Take a look at Tristan's face

My loving husband... shooting at his wife and kids.

I can't get this boy to be serious for a minute!

They even had their own version of "It's A Small World".

This was David's favorite...beer, imagine that.

I am so excited to be somewhere where the leaves change color!

They also had a parade in the streets.  We kinda caught the tail end of it, but we had a bird's eye view which was nice.

The kids love feeding the birds, and they had a place to do just that at Everland too.

We tried to convince them to ride the camel, but they chose to ride the pony instead...

Of course, cowboys don't ride camels, so Tristan said no way.

Taking time for a little target practice.

They had a really neat safari ride too.  They took you around in a bus and you got to see the animals up close, and they were just roaming free in this area.

This isn't a very clear picture because it was getting dark and I couldn't use my flash because of the glare on the glass, but I had to include it because this bear is standing up to get food from our driver.  The bears would just walk around on their hind legs when the bus came through because they knew the driver would feed them.  Really gave a good feel of how big a bear really is!

We had a lot of fun and plan on checking it out again a couple of times during the different seasons to see the changes in the park.  We may even get season passes as they have a huge water park there too and it's easy to get to.  Yep, I said it, we found something in Korea that is easy to get to, and it took us less than an hour each direction to get there!
