We celebrated Mid Autumn Festival on 14 September with a bbq dinner, followed by lantern playing and mooncake feasting.
The weather forecast for that day wasn't so good from the beginning of the week, with rain and wind throughout the day. As the days go by, the weather forecast 'tamed' down to just showers and fine in the evening. Finally on that day itself, it was a fine and rainless day with temperature ranging from 16 - 19 degrees. So definitely have to thank God for the fine weather, which enabled everyone to have a fun time.
We invited 3 other families to join us, each bringing a dish/meat. It was also the first time we use the bbq pit after so many months of 'hibernation' during the colder months. The kids had fun playing with lanterns and riding bikes outside, while the adults feasted on the mooncakes after dinner.
One thing for sure, the mooncakes are cheaper than those selling in Singapore, especially if you get it on the day itself, you can expect to get at least 40% discount. We only paid $27 for some good quality mooncakes.
Anyway, it is always good to have a gathering with friends on festive season...feels just like back home. Will do it again next year.
