The moon festival means re-union in China.

People believe the moon that day is the most round one in the whole year. And for the ones can not go back home, when he is looking at the full moon upside, his far-away family is just looking at the same moon, when he is eating the moon cake, his family is doing the samething. That means even though the family can not see each other, theyare always getting together.

Most family will enjoy the festival togther, do not have to do anything so special, talking and eating moon cake is enough. Chinese people belive a peaceful and normal life is a real life.

I was in Kowloon at the time of his landing .. with all these files ... I'm-Still-in-LMAO-State ... Cost for the ME in HK was around HK$ 2000/200 EUR, and ME was kind of swift, quicker and way shorter than on the mainland ... -- icnif77
