Baby Fair at the Seoul COEX

Twice a year, at the convention center in Seoul, there is a large Baby Fair.  They have all the newest and greatest baby gadgets and contraptions, along with other booths for nutrition, pregnancy, insurance, etc.  We took the bus up to Nambu Terminal and then cabbed it to the COEX.  Due to the traffic, it took a bit longer than expected, but it would have taken hours to get there in our own vehicle.  There is a bus only lane on the expressway and I'm finding it more convenient to travel up to Seoul by public transportation than driving.

There were many things to see and play with at the Baby Fair and Elizabeth especially liked playing on all the baby/toddler furniture.  I bought a few layettes and a swaddle blanket for the new baby and Elizabeth got a new lunch container and snacks.  One disadvantage of public transportation is having to lug all the things back home.  If we had driven, I would have definitely looked into some bigger ticket items.  There was this interesting bassinet system that can be placed on any type of surface and looked very useful as a storage area for stuffed animals and toys when the baby outgrows it.  I was tempted to buy it, but our small apartment will probably be maxed by one additional human and any more baby gear may cause a burst at the concrete seams. -S
