Nonsan Strawberry Festival

I actually went to this on April 9th.  I got a tad behind with the whole broken computer situation.  Sorry.

Maggie invited us all out to her little town of Nonsan for the annual Strawberry Festival.  Her and her co-teacher, Bomi, would be our tour guides for the day.  This has happened so long ago that most of it will be far more pictures than an actual narrative, which might be a nice change of pace for you.

They had a cooking competition and the results looked delicious!  And a bit weird.  Look closely and you can see that the flowers are actually made of rice.

The little boy was too cute to not take a picture of.

I think I look really young here. The denim skirt and leggings probably aren’t helping matters though.

This is what a lot of people do to their dogs in Korea.  It makes me giggle, but it also makes me a little sad at the same time.

And this is my Korean child that I met at the train station waiting to come home.  While he was already shown on a previous blog, I believe this merits being posted twice.
