Witness to my first Guiness Record

[acparsons]

It's been a year of ups and downs for me, literally. After seeing the luge at the Olympics, yesterday I was at the set up for a Guinness Award breaking event.

The 5th Seoul Kimchi Making Festival was held November 3 - 4.

With 3,452 people simultaneously making kimchi, they were able to produce 90 tons, which was distributed to social welfare organizations.

In addition to strolling through the KimChi Museum, I was able to see first hand how the masters of kimchi work their magic.

While the masters made kimchi, the artists painted kimchi.

Unfortunately, I couldn't stay for the whole shebang.
