Danoje Festival

I don’t feel like writing about it. Its big. It celebrates the Korean harvest. We ate a ton of delicious street food (and saw some really nasty stuff.) Beautiful. We had a ton of fun.

bubbles

tents lined the river

there was even a circus tent

this chick was BALANCED

it was my first circus... really excellent

yes, shes balancing another chic on her head. crazy. what?!

There were tons of people, and really weird vendors.

tons of people

traditional dancing...

FUN!

korean powerrangers!

ladies making DOK, rice noodles

they cook that green stuff and wash your hair with it...

so of course i let her wash mine... any head touches are great.... !

she then proceeded to take the hairdryer from a little girl, and do my hair. when i tried to stand straight up the lady whacked me with the dryer right in the head... i love this place!

our festival companions

instead of mickey or donald duck... the SOJU man!

he's shaving a metal spoon and holding it with his feet. what?

some weird reflexology... but burnination...

closer... CLOSER...check out my badass lotus seed beads...

on the flip side, wayyyy hotter.
