Touring the area around the Han river on bikes was so fun on our last morning. Although earlier in the week we experienced a heat wave not seen in the past 110 years, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday were warm, but more comfortable and less humid.

We had a quick lunch, packed up, said goodbye to our dear Ji Hae, and got on the subway to the airport. We left our room at Eastern at 2 pm to walk to the subway station, rode the subway to the airport arriving about 3:15 pm for our 6:15 pm flight, turned in our rented WiFi egg, checked our bags, found our flight was delayed until 6:45 pm, ate dinner, and waited. We got to see two other adoptive families who attended court with us in the airport, and one family was on our flight to Seattle which was fun! 10.5 hours later, we arrived in Seattle (Saturday afternoon - weird to land "before" you took off!) and went through US customs. Fortunately, we had been warned to go to the bathroom on the plane before starting this process. It was not customs that took a long time, it was going through the TSA security check before entering the rest of the airport. Our layover was over 4 hours, and then we had to wait in the plane on the tarmac for the coffee maker to be fixed...heaven forbid we fly without a working coffee maker ;) And finally made it safely to Albuquerque and drove home to Cedar Crest, arriving at 11 pm, about 24 hours after leaving the room at Eastern. Whew!
I have to say, the jet lag has rocked us. We did fine the first night, sleeping soundly until 7 am. But Sunday night was rough for us. Monday night was better, and I hope we're pretty much adjusted now!
