Mid Autumn Festival 2015

It is the mid autumn aka moon cake festival again and of course time to walk the lantern. We were supposed to have some fun with our cousins at Nai Nai and Ye Ye's house tonight after dinner but unfortunately Gor Gor Evan has exams tomorrow so they are not coming over. Plus it was still a little hazy today and we almost had to walk our lanterns indoor, which can be quite boring for us. 

Thank goodness the weather cleared a little and Mummy and Daddy agreed that we can go outdoors but not for too long. So Nai Nai went down with us as she also wanted to get bread for herself. There were many other kids at the playground too so we got a little distracted with the spinning cup which we took turns to play with.


Nai Nai mentioned that Daddy, Yee Sok and Gu Zhe used to walk their lanterns in the Hougang kampong where great grandma and grandpa stayed. It was really fun as it was really a kampong without any street lamps, just the lights from the houses around, so the ambiance was perfect to show off the lanterns they had. Apparently they even sing this Teochew song about carrying lantern and if you don't, it will grow moldy. Hahah.. we should learn and pass it on next time.
