SO BUMMED....

I am so bummed today.  All week I have been looking forward to going here: http://www.mudfestival.or.kr/lang/en/main/move.do?forward=history&pageNum=1&subNum=2 

Seriously, I have been looking forward to going to the MUD FESTIVAL.  It is supposed to be so much fun for the whole family, with those bouncy houses and slides covered in mud for the kids, a mud jail if you aren’t muddy enough, a mud massage, and of course mud wrestling.  They also have mud painting and you get to dump buckets of mud on each other’s heads. They say the mud is not “dirty”.  Seems odd, but that is what everyone says.  My friends also say the mud feels like silk and is good for your skin. In Boryeong, where the Mud Festival is held, they even sale Mud cosmetics.

So, why am I sad you ask? Well, stinkin’ Mother Nature ruined our plans.  There is a 90% chance of rain all day long, with Tropical Storm Kalmaegi heading our way.  The rain is going to be in both cities, here and Boryeong, and all along our route.  So for the safety or us, our children and our friends that were going with us, we have decided not to travel 2.5 hours by car to play in the mud. 

I forgot to mention, this is the last weekend of the festival & that my cooler & bags were already packed and waiting by the door.

For those of you planning to visit us next summer, if you would like to join us in the mud fun, come out during July, one of our hottest, and most humid months, because I am sure to be there next year.
