So a bunch of us went to the Rock Festival in Daejeon a few weekends ago. In Korea there are lots of festivals going on all the time. Daejeon had the rock festival, an international food festival, and some other cultural ones all going on the same weekend. There was food from a bunch of Asian countries and Mexico and Spain (that somehow makes it international) which we could pick from when we got there. I got some Indian curry which was pretty good but the meat I had was really bony and hard to eat. The rock bands were mostly "screamy" Korean groups but there were some foreigners singing too. The festival was supposed to play music until 5am but the police came and shut it down around 2 due to noise- makes no sense. Obviously a rock festival will be loud, but whatever. Here is one of the Korean groups on stage (not even sure if you can see anyone on stage in this picture though).
They had this hot air balloon going next to the river, across the street from the rock festival. This was part of some other festival. All those dots in the sky are paper lanterns lit up. See my next picture for a group of people I don't know setting one off.
After things got shut down, we went to a couple bars and a Japanese restaurant before heading off to bed. Sorry this post is so lame. The Internet has been only letting me on for 10 minutes at a time, unless it's Skype, so I'm trying to crank this out quickly so Andrew has something to read. Next, I'll talk about this past weekend where I went to Busan for another festival. Try to enjoy!
