Jen does the D-A-N-C-E

This weekend a group of us braved the unknown perils of waking up early on a Saturday to take a train to Seoul to dance and enjoy general merriment at World DJ Fest.  We (inevitably) got shushed on the train the entire way there (we couldn’t help it, didn’t they realize how excited we were?!), hiked across great distances to reach the park where the festival was being held (the term ‘great’ being subject to some exaggeration on my part) and ‘camped’ outside the festival grounds (the only similarity it bore to real camping was that there were tents involved).  The weather literally could not have been more perfect, the beats were thumping, and we cut loose like it had been years since we’d had a day off (actually, we had had Wednesday off).  And we have the photos to prove it. 

We made it to Seoul!

Gorgeous park on the way to the festival grounds.

Nom nom nom.

"The calm before the storm."

We're SO excited!

View of the Han River with Seoul in the distance.  We are on an overpass walking to the festival grounds which you can't see here, but they are off to the right a little ways.

Our settlement, Funtown.  We've already picked up some new friends.

First views of the festival at around 4pm.

Perfect weather and loud music makes us giddy.

We danced early and often.

"I just wanna dance!"

I don't know why, but I like it.

Another awesome thing about festivals: the dress.

Scared?

So much dancing is going on right now.

A sight I love to see, no matter what continent I'm on.
