Korean Folk Village

Before the family goes home, Mom wanted to see a famous traditional Korean village near our home. So, all of the family (except myself - I had a history class to teach) spent Wednesday afternoon, my mom's birthday, at the village.
Break dancing - traditional Korean style
How do people learn these things?
These birds are some of the only wildlife you'll ever see in Korea (at least, where we live). Although, there are some pretty exciting creatures in the nearest grocery store...
Angie and Julie enjoyed trotting on the horses
This cannot possibly be comfortable...
Every village has to have its kimchi!
Someone forgot to run their English by a native speaker. The English is actually a direct translation from the Korean which helps explain one of the reasons Korean is so hard for us - it doesn't make sense!
The ribbons are tied to their hats. I wonder how they did this without becoming dizzy?
Try this trick with a sibling...all you need is a see-saw and a partner who can jump on the other end for you!

Back at home for cake
