Happy Mid-Autumn Festival
Today is the 15th day of the 8th month of the Chinese calender. It a big festival for lots of Chinese around the globe ... and i would like to wish everyone a Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.
Will not be having any celebration here for me as no one is around to celebrate with me !!!!
To the Chinese, this festival is similar to the American Thanksgiving holiday, celebrating a bountiful harvest. Compared to many Chinese festivals that are inundated with vibrant colors and sounds, the Mid-Autumn festival remains more subdued. Traditionally celebrated outdoors under the moonlight, people eat moon cakes and gaze at the moon. In modern times, barbecues with families and friends are also common.
