MUDFEST!!!

This weekend I attended the 10th annual Boryeong Mudfest. In case anyone forgot it was the 10th mudfest they made sure to put "since 1998" on everything. This is quite a popular practice in Korea. Restaurants seem to be very proud of the fact that they've been open for 4 years (since 2004!!). Anyhow mudfest was awesome. We caravaned 2 chartered buses full of foreign teachers across Korea so we could cover ourselves in mud and play at the beach.

Things of Note:

Ricardo is now a novice Shark wrestler.
Kevin almost got the Guinness world record for high fives.
I might be in a commercial.
It's OK to cover yourself in mud if everyone else is doing it.
Surgery is pretty difficult to perform (I have a surgeon video game on my Nintendo DS)

A lot of stories, not enough space. Enjoy the pictures:

Tony, I don't see a picture of you covered in mud. You didn't join in on the fun? :) I love reading your blog, sounds like you are having a great time. Nothing exciting happening in Estacada. Just watching the garden grow. And Uncle Dave is almost done restoring his Model T. Talk to you soon. Love Aunt Ruth

I was sorda wondering the same thing...did you cover yourself in mud or just watch everyone else do it. Also, I was watching a show on video games and it was talking about the surgeon one...crazy! Do you usually kill your patients or save them??

I did on Saturday but I didn't want to ruin my camera so I didn't hav eit with me. I'll have to check the mudfest website to see if any of the pictures random Koreans took make it up.
