Bikini Bottom and the Super Moon

On May 6, the day after Children's Day is celebrated in Korea, we made a spur of the moment trip to IPark Mall in Yongsan. We stopped in to Dunkin Donuts for a snack. As we were eating, we noticed a lot of bubbles outside floating around and down from the level above us. Curious, we went to check it out. What did we find, you ask? Amazingly enough, it was a life size replica of Bikini Bottom (or part of it) better known as Sponge Bob Square Pants home! It was actually a big inflatable play area (sponsored by Nick, Jr.) for kids with slides, a bounce house, games, and other activities. Of course, Brennan being Brennan was very interested in the bubbles. I, of course, was more interested in getting a photo with Sponge Bob and Dora the Explorer. Brennan was not impressed with them!

Later that night, we found out that it was the night of the Super Moon. So, I grabbed the camera and went out. Only in Korea (seems like) would I have to take a walk in search of a Super Moon! Finally, I found an open space and there it was. By the time I saw the moon and even though it was very pretty, I have to say it was a bit underwhelming (kind of like expecting a dinner plate and getting a bottle cap). See photo above.
