Enjoying the Summer in Daegu


Over the last few weeks we have tried our best to enjoy the summer weather in Daegu.


Our good friends, Maggie and Noah, purchased a small charcoal grill and we've been putting it to use. Rooftop BBQs and grilling burgers in the park, our weekly picnics have definitely improved.


The best way to enjoy the summer in Daegu, the hottest of all cities in Korea, is to simply leave Daegu. And so, with the daily temperatures around 100 degrees F not including the smothering humidity, we've been trying to make it to the beach.


Last weekend we spent the day at Korea's largest beach, Haeundae Beach, in Pusan. This weekend we are off to Daecheon Beach to take part in the biggest beach party of the year, Mudfest.


Enjoy the heat to its fullest in the Summer.
Enjoy the cold to its fullest in the Winter.
In this way, great appreciation of nature's opposites will be cultivated.

Peace
