Da Daepo Fountain Show

Last night, I went to the Da Daepo Beach Fountain Show.  If you've been to the Bellagio in Las Vegas, think that, but more colors, 30 minutes of it, a beautiful beach to one side, huge high rises to the other, and thousands of Koreans ooing and awing!   It's every photographer's paradise!

This fountain is brand new!  Construction was finished just a couple months ago, so it's a big crowd maker.  If I had to guess, I would easily say that there were thousands of Koreans there!  According to some of the parents at my school, this fountain is in the Guiness Book of World Records!   I'm not sure why... It could be because of the fountain in the middle that sprays water about a hundred feet into the air and soaks everyone!   :)


Before the show started, I went to the GS-25 (kind of like a 7/11) and bought a drink.  The lady gave this dried octopus as "service" (a free gift)!  Disgusting huh?!

After the show, they turn the fountains back on, and you can take pictures near and even in them... 

This young Korean couple was adorable.  They ran into the middle of this fountain and were soaking wet, laughing together!

The fountains are definitely every kids playground!  They were loving it!

The crowd in the middle of the fountains... Notice all the cameras and camera phones - Koreans LOVE taking pictures!


Beautiful huh?!
