Today is Chuseok- the Korean Thanksgiving. It's the most important holiday here and it celebrates the abundant harvests by their ancestors.
I went with my friend Ellie to her Aunt's house and our coworker Vida came along, too. I took pictures of them getting some of the yummy food ready.
Here they are cooking.
Cutting the noodles for my favorite dish- Japchae.
Making Songpyeon, which is a rice dough with a sesame seed and sugar filling that is steamed. You flatten out the dough and then mold it into a half moon shape.
This is what they look like after they're steamed and ready to eat. So yummy!!
Our dinner. So yummy, too!!
Afterward, we went on a walk and a dragonfly landed on me but he had a bug that he was eating. It was very cool and interesting. It's Chuseok for everyone!!
A good vacation!
