Andong

Last weekend I went with a few friends to the Andong Maskdance Festival.
I am so thankful for my friend Andy who drove us ladies around, bought us lunch, and gave us some cute handmade wallets. Thank you Mr. Seok!
We started the day off by going to the Hahoe Village, I honestly prefer the village over the big commercial festival, but here are photos of each.

The scenic route to the village.

The crew.
We are from around the world ;)
Canada, England, Korea, and U.S.A.

Still walking to the village.

What a traditional mask looks like.

Rice and a scarecrow. 

Having fun in the playground!

Reservation at a cute little traditional restaurant outside the village.

Lunch! Andong jjimduk. I guess they use coke to make it so brown?

"so we're strolling around, having a look at things, 
and this man grabs us and announces he wants to take our picture. 

all of a sudden, we're surrounded by a giant cow, some passers by and a costume person. there were also a bunch of koreans taking our picture on their cellphones. it's fun being a foreigner..." Lucy's caption about this photo. :)

The rest are videos of some of the traditional dances I watched.
