A Field Trip to Seoul Land

Last week my school went on a field trip to Seoul Land, an amusement park in Seoul Grand Park (which I visited back in December when I went to the Contemporary Art Museum). Us foreign teachers were only allowed to stay at the park for a few hours, as we needed to cover afternoon classes back at our hagwon, but we got to wander the main grounds and go on a ride with the kids.

Arriving at the park via a back entrance.

After the ride was over, us foreign teachers made our way out of the park.

The hills surrounding the park were covered in beautiful spring-time colours.

We took this elephant-train back towards the nearest metro station.

Though short-lived, this field trip made for a fun outing with the kids. The weather was gorgeous, Seoul Land itself was quite a charming place as theme parks go, and it's always nice getting to spend some time with my students and fellow teachers outside of the work environment. Angela really wants to go to Seoul Land with me before we leave Korea, so don't be surprised if I make another post about it in the near future.
