Hi~
This weekend is Qingming Festival in China.So We have a short holiday.
Qing Ming is a time to remember the dead and the dearly departed. More important, it is a period to honour and to pay respect to one's deceased ancestors and family members. Because it reinforces the ethic of filial piety, Qing Ming is a major Chinese festival. Literally meaning "clear" (Qing) and "bright" (Ming), this Chinese festival falls in early spring, on the 106th day after the winter solstice. It is a "spring" festival.
In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.
So We went to the park and enjoyed flowers.There flowers are very beautiful
The spring outing was interesting. I like spring outing and I want to spring outing again.

Hi~Mum
We attended a Chinese wedding.The bride is PAPA's good friend.
We had arrived in hotel with bride the night before.We had a last bachelor party with bride and all the girls in the evening.
I only had try a little Breezer.That's sweet .We played many game then we went to bed late.
Early in the morning we went to the bride's room to close the door.
The bride is very beautiful.She hugged us and take picture and Every girl took our for picture,Do you know which one is PAPA?
The room is full of red,PAPA said,The Chinese regard the color red as the symbol of happiness, success, luck, faith and growth. They like red very much, which comes from worship of the Sun. In traditional Chinese weddings, there are double Xi characters in red, red scarves, red flowers and the bride wears a red coat.
I don't know why close the door,PAPA tell me The firends of bride will not allow the bridegroom with his friends to come in early unties he agrees some terms Generally,the bridegroom will give a red paper containing money.
The bride bed stood a red dates(early), peanuts(give birth), longans(Precious), melon seeds(children),The meaning is evident in the Chinese pronunciation of these four foods. When they are said together, it sounds like "Have a baby soon."
In traditional Chinese wedding,it is ceremony before the daughter leaves her parents to show the departure.
After saying goodbye to the bride's parents,the bride should get into a sedan chair and there will be some happy music .then these people will escort the bride to the groom. They sang as they walked so busy.
The bride can't remove the cap on her head's red handkerchief after go out.
We have also come to the wedding Hotel
PAPA said In Chinese usually wedding is Relatives and friends are invited to the feast to eat and drink to the happiness of the bride and bridegroom.
There are more than 200 people attended the wedding.the happiness candy and happiness smoke on the table.I ate the sugar is sweet! The Red wine is a special custom,Printed with the bride and groom's wedding
The wedding started,On the stage,we can see the man seated in the left side is bridegroom's father, and the other side is his mother,and this is bride, this is bridegroom. The man who officiate the wedding like the priest in foreign.
I heard,In china ,this part calls" baitang". taht is in the traditional wedding ceremony,bride and bridegroom perform the marriage ceremony in which they pay homage to heaven and earth and to the groom's parents.
The wedding is China dishes, very delicious
After the wedding we went to bridal chamber.The new bed is red very beautiful.
I think Chinese wedding is so interesting!Then Papa said In china Most of the young people will choose western style wedding,Wedding in the church,but she's friend think Chinese wedding more funny!
I wish the newlyweds happiness~~~

The Strawberry bear took me into the garden.
The air here is very clear.The trees make a pleasant shade on both sides of the street.
I go to the two trees and get the fruits.It wasn't bad
Peony is a florid and feminine flower in oriental legend, so it is a good choice for ladies,I also like it.Smell the flowers and trees that have started to bloom.and I dreamt that I was in the flower.
About dinner,I've forgotten it
