Our Easter Spring Holiday in Seoul
It was afternoon and we were packing up for going to Seoul. My parents went out to buy valuables that we needed for the holiday. While I was with my brother and ironing their clothes that were dry, also selecting the clothes for my holiday. My parents came back and we all started packing our clothes and food. We got all ready and went to the car (My dad packed the bags in the car while we were packing). We all got into the car and headed for the tour gate. After five we left Ulsan and headed for Seoul. In three hours time we stopped and went into a driver’s restaurant. Mum went to make food for Shawn and Joel, while they were eating. Everyone took turns to ease themselves and I was the last. We went back to the car and continued our journey to Seoul. The next two hours we were in Seoul and in the next one hour we were in “Human Starville Hotel (the same name that we had last time we were in Seoul for Christmas holiday).” We got a parking place, and then a service helper came with a carriage for luggage. So we went into the elevator, upstairs to the reception to get our card and the room number, then we went to our room that was 1408. We took our luggage from the carriage and unpacked at past twelve. I took a shower while mummy was ordering for a blanket for Joel and Shawn to sleep. When they finished unpacking I came out and everyone went to sleep except Joel and Shawn.

It was morning and I woke up. My brother was already up and all of them had a shower after my dad had taken a shower. After my mum to a shower and when I finished taking a shower, we all wore our clothes and ate breakfast. Shawn and Joel were in the pushchair, while my mum told to put the things we needed in the bag (I didn’t know where we were going). So when everyone was ready, we all went to basement two (parking lot), into our car. When everything was in the car, we headed out of the hotel and into the street. I think we went to Itaewon and bought something, after we went to happy home restaurant. We ate lunch and waited for uncle John. After an hour we met Uncle John, Mike, and Sky came. Uncle John brought a gift for my mum (which was food stuffs) and then the talking began. After four or five hours in the restaurant, everyone was a hundred percent tired. Then everyone left the restaurant. We went back to our hotel, into our room. Everyone ate dinner and got ready for bed (and went to sleep).

[...] It was morning and we did what we usually do (referred on the page before this). This time mummy went to the bank in the hotel and they said that they had no service or they couldn’t help. One of the service helper took mummy and the family outside and directed only my mum to come with her (or was it mummy who told us not to come). After she went, my dad went on the phone and started talking and got into an argument. Mummy came back and told me that she needed to go to the Citibank. She saw dad talking on the phone and then we went to the car except for my dad. As we got in the car, Shawn or Joel started crying (I think it was Joel). My mum carried Joel to daddy, while Shawn, kachi and I were in the car. Daddy came back with Joel and mum behind him. We all got into the car and went to the Citibank (let just skip the parking and when mum went in and came out). Then dad drove us to a building where there was Cannon Company (but that didn’t work). So we went to a KT building (I am not sure about the building’s name), but that didn’t work. So we went to eat dinner in the “Happy Home Restaurant” in Itaewon. When we finished, we went to our hotel in Seoul and did what we usually did (referred on the page before this). [...]
[...] When everyone woke up, we did what we always usually did. We went to Itaewon (I was asleep when we reached there), we went through a market street with a car. When we found somewhere to park. We came out of the car and went into this big market place and we stayed there for thirty minutes, then mum went, after my dad asked me where was kachi? I said that he should be with mummy, my dad left and my mum came without kachi (I thought mummy and daddy met on the way, so Kachi went with dad). My mum said where is kachi and I said I thought he was with you (this is when I knew kachi was lost). My mum went to search for daddy, but daddy said he didn’t know (then I notice that kachi was really lost). Then dad and mum went to search for him, while I was with the twins. They found him in the police office. Mummy bought her golf bag and we all went out of the market and went to our favorite restaurant for dinner. Then we went to the mall on our back to our hotel, my mum bought a watch and perfume then we went back to the hotel and did what we usually do. [...]
