It was right on the beach, so once you were covered in mud and it had dried you could run into the water to get clean! So awesome! I went down with Seoul Hiking Group (Warren!) with a bunch of friends and we met more there who went down separately. We spent hours during the day just playing int he mud park. The wrestling was the best: it was super fun and you go the muddiest. They also had kind of mud sinks where you could go to paintbrush/splash more mud onto your body.
After playing around for several hours I went back to the pension, showered (so nice to be clean!) and dressed. There was a BBQ out back for everyone in our group which was good, though not filling. Afterward I went for a walk around with a friend to try to find some mud-soap. I found, which I was unusually excited about, but later found out I had gotten the wrong kind. What I wanted to get was the soap that was 1,000 won and came in a box. Instead what I got was prettily shaped mud-soap for 4,000 won :-( But, oh well. It's still nice. Hopefully. I haven't used any yet...
That night was spent, at least mostly, hanging out on the beach with friends and strangers. We played some ball, drank, and really just relaxed and enjoyed being there. It was a good time.
I had told myself that the next day, Sunday, I would not get muddy again. Yeah, that didn't work out. Sunday was spent painting ourselves in mud, dancing to the live music, and swimming in the ocean. They had like a floaty dock thing out there for people to lay on and jump off of. That was pretty nice, but not so good for my pale skin.
Eventually we all had showers and got back on the bus around 3pm. It was an amazing weekend and I'm glad I went and got to spend time with friends I'll be leaving soon. Besides, when am I going to get a chance to spend the weekend playing in mud again?
