We had plans to attend ANZA's Family Christmas Brunch, but Kyle has been sick since Friday and was still down for the count. Nathan and I left him at home to rest and went to see about a man called Santa.
The event was held at the Millennium Hilton in Seoul, and boy do they do Christmas right. Nathan joined right in with the other kids wandering with wonder around the multi-track, live rail system winding around the lobby through village scene after village scene, complete with a three story (at least) tall Christmas tree.
It was just magical to see Christmas through Nathan's eyes. Truthfully, I was very much missing Kyle as well as our families, and watching Nathan erupt with glee at every passing train and twinkling light combined with the live carolers signing "I'll Be Home for Christmas" proved more than I could handle. I got caught up in a little moment. I have not ever cried in public in Seoul, and am determined to keep my streak going, so those couple tears I wiped away don't count.

| Even Korean kids are enthralled with western kids. |

| This little boy was more interested in the strange western child than the trains |

Hysterical - he's like a celeb!
