Our agenda today was to do finish some final souvenir shopping.
While walking around in Insadong we heard some wonderful musicians play Amazing Grace.
We wanted to make sure to capture the crowds.
We have been to Insadong several times throughout the past week and it is always this busy.
One of the souvenirs we wanted to purchase was a Korean stamp for Isaiah. We went to this shop (which we are pretty sure other Holt families have recommended previously) to buy a name stamp. We showed the man Isaiah's passport (with his Korean name)so that he would know how to make it correctly.
This is the view from inside the store. We got to sit on a bench and watch the men make the name stamp.
This man was very talented. He first penciled the stamp then he carved the stamp.
Isaiah wanted to watch as the man worked.
The name stamp is made on a marble stone. It was very impressive how quickly he created the stamp.
This man was showing us about the way to use this special red ink.
Isaiah got his name written in another style of writing too (we are not exactly sure what the man explained to us)
Some final prints of the stamp.
Isaiah and Daddy happy being together in the stamp shop.
