MUNCH MUSSELS

Once a year a part of Whidbey Island goes happily nuts -- for mussels! Not the kind you flex – the kind you eat! Now in its 29th year, the Penn Cove Musselfest was the place to be if you love seafood as much as I do! We caught the Mukilteo ferry and it was an [...]

THE MOSIAC STAIRS

I’ve had these steps on my San Francisco to-see list for so long!!! I was glad that we were able to get away from our busy party planning schedule to visit the famous mosaic stairs. The 16th Avenue Tiled Steps project has been a neighborhood effort to create a beautiful mosaic running up the risers [...]

BARBIE & FRIENDS

RELAXATION

HEEEERE….FISHY, FISHY

While searching for activities to do in Korea, I came across ice fishing and was immediately hooked on doing this! I was super excited when we were able to sign up last minute with Koridor Tours to ice fish for trout. Our tour guide Ken drove two hours to The 6th Jarasum Singsing Winter Festival, which [...]

SKATING AND STREAMING

Seoul Plaza Ice Skating Rink We stumble upon this outdoor ice skating rink while on our way to Cheonggyecheon Stream. It cost only 1,000 Korean won ($1.00 USD) per person for an hour session which includes skates! We figure for that price, why not give it a go! I have only ice skated once before [...]
