Jeonju, Daedunsan and Easter weekend


Nathene invited me to spend a weekend in Jeonju with her friend, Eric. There wasn't time to see much of the city, but that first night we walked through Hanok Village, an area that celebrates Korean art, crafts and food.
This drunken man was screaming to us in English from across the street. He shared his makgeolli, Korean rice wine, with Eric. So generous, this man.

Foreigner soccer team in Jeonju. I love tracing this line of players, their limbs flailing freely. So goofy.

Ajumma on the mountain




I found a great hand model in Korea. These flowers were strikingly blue.


Sisters
They have a younger sister, who was sitting one bench over. Their dad caught up with me later in the day. He asked me where I'm from and what I think of his country. I told him it's so beautiful and he thanked me with a wide smile.


Long afternoon sunlight, dried flowers, mushrooms and red beans

And the egg family began with this...
