Full Moon ○


Tonight is a beautiful full moon. And tonight's moon is a special full moon for Chinease people.
The full moon which rise up at August 15th on old calender is very important for them. The moon rising day, family gather and enjoy talking or eating. And this day, they always eat a sweets called “YueBing (月餅)”. And this day called “ZhongQiuJie (中秋節)”.
This day is the most precious day next to the lunar New Year and the National day for Chinease.

In Japan, There is this event too.But we don't eat YueBing. We usually eat a sweets called “Otukimi-dango”.And we watch the moon. This event is called “Otukimi”.

Tonight, I did Otukimi with my friends after a dinner.
We ate crepes and drank juices. I enjoyed tonight.
