Eight college students and one aquarium filled with mostly parents and children.

We went to an aquarium in the Coex Mall, the main venue for the G20 Summit held this year. For the most part, we saw marine-life in action, but we also saw prairie dogs and spiders behind the glass windows. Interesting, right? The aquarium was crowded with children and parents, and our team of college foreigners definitely stood out. This did not bother us, though. I'm pretty sure we were just as excited to see the sharks as the running little boys, who were racing to see the shark tank.

In our eyes, spending the day at the aquarium was a great way to have fun . . . and stay warm.

We saw some of the cutest kids and funny-looking fish in the aquarium.
The puffer fish, also known as "blowfish" in Korea, was probably one of the funniest, but in a cute way, of course. Little did we know that it would be the main ingredient in a future meal: dinner. The cooks at a restaurant fried and breaded it. They drizzled mustard and a sweet sauce over the fish for the final touch.

I couldn't stop thinking how cute it looked in the aquarium.
Here are some more pictures from the day at the Aquarium:

I just had to take this picture. They were playing soccer!
(Well, the effort was there)
