Flat Sally arrives in Seongnam, South Korea!

While Flat Manly is visiting my aunt and uncle in Daejeon, Flat Sally has had the opportunity to visit my cousin Hyun Jin in Seongnam, South Korea!

First, Hyun Jin's daughter Yuri took Sally to her elementary school and showed her around.

 Pretty classroom, Yuri!

Isn't she the cutest?

Next, Sally and Yuri visited Seolleung, the Royal tomb of King Seongjong and Queen Jeonghyeon. 

It also Hyun Jin's first time to visit Royal tomb in Seoul.

Lastly, Yuri and her family took Sally with them to visit Everland in Yongin, a major theme park in South Korea - in 2011, it was ranked the 11th most visited theme park in the world!

Next, Sally traveled to Bongeunsa, the 1200 year old temple located in Gangam, the heart of a modern city. It Yuri's family's first time to visit Bongeunsa as well. 

Sally also enjoyed a lovely picnic in the park with Yuri and a school friend:

Thank you SO much, cousins for an amazing and historical visit! 

More adventures with Hyun Jin to come!

Flat Manly says, "Hello from Creston, British Columbia!"

Flat Manly has had a wonderful time in western Canada with our kind host Mrs. Ruth Handy! He met her in Idaho at a friend's farm, then crossed the border into British Columbia. The notes are provided by Mrs. Ruth!

Stanley Glacier

Flat Stanley arrived in northern Idaho on a beautiful sunny afternoon - temperature was 59F.

 

A few minutes later, the Canadian Customs Officer smiled and laughed when I introduced him to Flat Stanley - the world traveler!

Welcome to Creston, Flat Stanley! We had sunny weather just for you - temperature is 15C (59F =15C, just so you know!)

Flat Stanley’s visit to Creston’s historical landmark

An official welcome to Creston by our Mayor Ron Toyota. Flat Stanley was feeling very important!

Stanley also got to go on a trip to Alberta and saw all sorts of fascinating things! (I also have it on good authority that Manly stayed on his best behavior and never asked, "Are we there yet?" once.) 

 Stanley crosses the BC/Alberta border at Crowsnest Pass and sees the Rocky Mountains...

Stanley visited one of the most famous and most beautiful tourist destination in Canada…Banff, Alberta

Flat Manly arrives in Daejeon, South Korea! (Part Two)

Hello again from Daejeon, South Korea! Flat Manly is still having an awesome time with my Uncle Lee and Aunt Kim, and have lots of photos to prove it.

The next stop on his visit was to the Yuseong Foot Spa to relax for a while.

Uncle Lee is teaching Manly how to relax

Lovers' locks, just like in Paris

My uncle Lee is a professor at Mokwon University, and was gracious to take him to see the campus, listen in on his lecture "Travel and the World," and to meet some students!

 Hellooooo students!

 Lovely campus

Thank you, Aunt Kim and Uncle Lee for such an amazing adventure!!
