Haeundae Sand Festival

Today was a nice sunny Sunday, so we headed down to the most popular beach in Korea to check out the Sand Festival. We also had lunch at the only Mexican restaurant we know of in Busan. It is super-tiny and only frequented by foreigners, but is worth a stop when we are nearby.

The most impressive sand sculpture we saw was this one:


Rie posed in front of this one for Yuki and Konan in Japan:


Koreans have a version of wrestling similar to Sumo, but the participants begin by holding on to each other's big diaper and then see who can make the other one fall first, but they don't let go the whole time.


We also saw a most impressive kite. It is made up of at least a hundred small kites all on the same line.

There's also the Fuzzy Navel which is right next to the Seacloud Hotel. Pretty good mexican food in there.
