This last weekend Koreans celebrated Chuseok. Here is what Wikipedia has to say about it: "
Chuseok (
Korean: 추석), originally known as
Hangawi (한가위, from archaic
Korean for "the great middle (of autumn)"), is a major
harvest festival and a three-day holiday in
Korea celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month of the
lunar calendar. Like many other harvest
festivals, it is held around the Autumn
Equinox. As a celebration of the good
harvest, Koreans visit their ancestral hometowns and share a feast of Korean traditional food such as
songpyeon and rice wines such as
sindoju and
dongdongju."
As for us, we don't like to listen to others all the time so we decided to brave the crowds and go hiking. Here are the pictures:
 |
| Pretty stream that went through the park. |
 |
| Clark dancing his way up the hill. |
 |
| We live some where over there...I think. |
 |
| Clark had no interest in being in the backpack. Each time he would want me to hold him, I told him no but that he could ride in the backpack. Clint would take it off and then Clark would change his mind. |
 |
| After some water from the camelback, he learned that it was ok. |
 |
| Here is a map of the trails we took. |
 |
| Random piles of rocks. |
 |
| Say cheese. |
 |
| Anna's turn. |
 |
| Funky Clark smile. |
 |
| It didnt' get any better. |
 |
| Can you tell why we have so many mosquitoes? |
 |
| Nick and Alicia and baby girl we get to meet at the beginning of 2013. |
 |
| Family photo time. |
 |
| That is the trail we walked up. |
 |
| I liked this owl. |
 |
| Our little gang. Below is a video of Clark telling Clint what Mosquitoes do. |
 |
| Brain flowers. |
 |
| Another family photo. |
 |
| Speed bump. Guess they didn't want us going up the hill too fast. |
 |
| Yeah, the pregnant lady and the guy with the 38 lb kid on his back kicked my butt going up this giant hill. |
 |
| Overview of some of the park. |
 |
| Yeah, maybe some day we will hike these stairs, but not any time soon. |
 |
| Not sure if Clark is pushing Clint's head or just has his hand placed there. |
 |
| What the boys are looking at. |
 |
| Sleeping little boy. |
 |
| Cool Praying Mantis we found on the road. |
 |
| Not sure what these buildings are, but they looked like giant mushrooms. |
