Last week, I posted about mommyo's visit to Korea. She came to visit us in November of 2011 and Markus and I had been in Korea for only three months. Basically, my mother and I toured Busan with the same new eyes. I didn't know where to go or what to do. It was basically an adventure. Now that I look back on the photos, it seems more like Mommyo's Grand Tour Of Busan. I just happened to be along for the ride, which isn't a bad thing. Most of the photos look like snapshots from some movie montage. It was pretty awesome and I had a great time.
I like to call this portion of photos, "Lady About Town". I love my mom, she's such a ham. The moment the camera is on her, she can turn on the charm. It totally makes sense that she's my mom. We have the same crazy personality.
One of the places I took her was Busan Tower. I went a few weeks earlier with my friends, but I wanted her to see the view. I don't think she was that impressed and we probably spent a total of 20 minutes there.

After Busan Tower, we headed over to BIFF Square and she tasted some of the treats offered at the different food stalls. I think she liked the chestnuts the best, which I also love. While we were walking around, we saw a random group of people jogging with light torches. My mom asked me what they were doing and I had no idea. Actually, I still have no idea. Maybe it's some kind of team building exercise or maybe they were preparing for the Olympics?
