Boat shopping, Annapolis, and Korean Festival

This past weekend we took at trip to look at a sail boat in Annapolis so we took full advantage of the nice weather and strolled around the town and went to the Naval Academy.   I had also seen that there was a Korean festival that same day so we took another drive and landed there around dinner time.


Touring the Naval Academy



 The kiddos found some nuts from a tree and yes we kept them and planed them in the back yard.  We will see what happens come spring :)

Checking out one of the tall ships that was docked 

I can not remember the name of this street but it was pretty awesome with lots of old row homes.  I didn't take a picture but there was this one house with a cute little fence coved with a beautiful green vine with purple flowers and purple pods.  I searched every nursery this spring looking for this plant to grow and have not been able to find it so I snatched a couple of pods and hope to dry them and plant them next year LOL

I took a picture of the pods if anyone knows the name of the plant please please share.

She is such a sweet thing and always up for posing

Back to the Korean festival.  So heard about this on the adoption Fb group I am part of and I figured since we were not too far off looking at the boat we could try it out.  It was about an hour still to get there and we started question this decision on the drive.  What if it was small?  What if it was dumb?  Well we pulled into the parking lot and this picture does not due justice to how many people were there.
 There was more Korean food than you could imagine.  Thank goodness JonJon came with us and helped us decide what to get because almost everything was written in Hangul.  Some signs would say pork or beek and some just had a pig or cow face drawn next to it :)


So that is where we ended our day sitting in a field surrounded by Korean's eating bulgogi and rice and watching traditional Korean signing and dancing along with watching people practice their Gangnam style and then have J refer to himself as Oppa the rest of  the night :)
