First, the children got their lanterns at my parent's place on Sunday. The wonderful grandparents bought them a lantern each.
For Ally, its a Disco music lantern with a little fan inside that blows up the Styrofoam beads and goes round and round, at the same time, the fan is also a fancy light display that changes patterns with the techno music.
Isabel gets a real bubble churning lantern with disco music too. Soap water is poured into the lantern, and a little motor will keeps blowing bubbles out of the fish's mouth.
Stylo siah...
In my office, we had moon cakes for lunch, and we played Chinese idiom games.
Back in home again, as today is the actual day, there seems to be an unspoken tradition for my few immediate neighbors to bring their children to the small garden at ground floor to carry lanterns.
Ally wondering why I used Tea-candle rather then the regular birthday candles like other kids.
For one, it lasts longer.
I brought the kids to walk around the block but...
But they end up abandoning the lantern for the playground.
