12th Annual Boryeong Mud Festival

It is exactly what it sounds like, mud, mud, mud and more mud!  We've been waiting for over a year to go to this festival, and it was well worth the wait!   This was the 12th annual mud festival on Daecheon Beach, about a 2.5 hour drive from Yongsan.  We loaded a bus at 7AM on Saturday morning and headed out.  If you are looking to go, there are many ways to get there, you can drive, take one of the many tours offered on post (if you are military), or you can take the train or a city bus.  If you want to go, check out their website here, to figure it out. 

Here are Hubby and his brother on the bus being themselves....

Heading to the festival.....the boys were not excited about dragging this cooler all the way to the beach, however the basil-lime martinis were in that cooler and there was no I was going to let them leave those on the bus!  Plus, they were pretty happy to have the cooler when lunch time rolled around.

Remember in previous post how I told you the Koreans LOVE our little blondies?  Well, the paparazzi was out of control at the mud festival! We couldn't do anything without them being right there.  Just check it out in the two pictures below.  In the 2nd picture Boy 3 was really working them.

Everyone had a great time at the mud festival.   Thanks to the Navy for letting us be the 'token Army family' on their bus!  And the last picture I will leave you with is of a typical Korean woman. She is wearing heels & her Prada sunglasses at mud festival!  You gotta love Korea!

    Proud Army wife and mother to 4 wonderful children.  I love to cook, travel, work out and scrapbook life’s adventures when I find the time.  We just got orders & are heading back to the states in March 2010.  I'm bummed that our time has been cut short, but proud of Hubby for the reason why.
