Well, after one of the wettest August in Korean history, we have begun the month of September with what has to be one of the wettest first 14 days for the month. It did dry out enough to take in the annual Nangye and Grape Festival in Youngdong on the 4th. In fact for a day, it was actually bright and on the hot side, but you can see from the pics it was a good time for all that attended.
This weekend kicks off the annual Baekjae Kindom Festival held in Gongju and Buyeo. Pictures for that will be in the next entry. The middle school students took part in a Love-All-Serve-All (LASA) trip to the Nuri Center and got a little hands-on experience working with young people with various disabilities. Yes it rained most of the time but was a great experience for them.

August/ Sept Things to Do
Well, it is fall in Korea and that means festival time. Actually it seems there is always a festival of some kind going on. Some festivals that happen close to Daejeon are the Nangye/Grape Festival in Yeongdong, the Geumsan Genseng Festival in Geumsan, and the Baekje Festival in Gongju and Buyeo. I have links in the link section for all of these and some sports information as well. Other items to follow will be more on places to visit in Daejeon like the National Science Museum, O-World (the zoo), and some parks you might like to visit.
