It is darling's 1st Mid-Autumn Festival ! I am definitely more excited than she is... ahaha ! I've bought her a small 'Nemo' (Clown Fish actually) lantern. It is the traditional type made with wires and colourful glass paper. I want her to know what is 'the real lantern' is like instead of the plastic type operate with battery and light bulp. Nonetheless, the plastic one is more practical for her age la... since she is too young to know how to hold her own lantern; and thanks to Sai Yi Ma (my 2nd sister) who has bought her a Winnie The Pooh plastic lantern.
So we went down to the pool side at 7.30pm on 23rd Sep 2007 to meet the rest of the kids and parents. Po po also went down with us but of course daddy has missed all the fun as he was in Foshan, China. All the other kids were carrying the traditional lantern except darling. I was a bit shy (paiseh) to turn on her electric Pooh lantern with 'traditional chinese music' ! So I waited till the walk has started before I turn on the music... Darling was more interested looking at the surrounding rather then the lanterns and other kids... I am sure she would appreciate the festival and enjoy herself better next year!
