中 秋 節 快 樂!

In case you can't read the title of this post, it says "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival" in Chinese...I wanted to see how Blogger would handle Chinese in post titles =P

Anyway, as you might have guessed, yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on the night of the Harvest Full Moon on the lunar calendar. I went exploring to take more photos of the various decorations around Macau, then at night a bunch of us brought mooncakes and other snacks to Hac Sa beach, which is also a very Macanese tradition for this holiday. There isn't much more to say, so I'll just post some of the better photos here (more on Facebook, as usual).

At night --> more creepy, less cute

Time to sleep now...back to work tomorrow!
