Life in Daegu has become very normal, particularly over June, since we stayed in Daegu (doing normal things like eating, shopping, seeing friends) for about 4 weeks straight.
2 weekends ago we were meant to be going on a beach party trip. The organiser had held the same trip for the first time the week before and the feedback was really negative. We heard that the buses left late, got lost, and there wasn't enough food or drinks. That weekend there were only about 90 people and the weekend we were scheduled to go there was around 500. We decided to go ahead with the trip as we didn't want us cancelling to effect our group of friends. So Saturday morning we were up bright and early and at the bus pick up point at 9am. When the buses hadn't left by 10:45 (after 2 false starts where we drove 100m down the road) Brenton and I gave up and got off. Of course the buses left about 5 minutes after that.
This weekend I went to the Mud Festival with some friends. Here is a link to the Wikipedia page about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boryeong_Mud_Festival
I had a good weekend. The company I went with took us to the actual mud flats first (not the beach where they take the mud for the festival) and we played some games and did an army training course. Then we went to the actual festival where we spent the afternoon and night playing in more mud, swimming at the beach, drinking and eating. These photos are the same as the ones on Facebook, so sorry if you have already seen them!

Over the next month my parents are coming to visit, we are going to Japan, and Kate is coming to visit, so I promise we will post more blogs!
