Of all the festivals in China, which one do you like best? Then what do you think of the Mid-Autumn Festival? Yesterday was a special day for me. Dad specially drove back home from Ningbo, because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, I was in the yard. I saw a bright moon slowly rising. This moon was round and golden yellow. As I watched, I felt like I had flown up to the Moon Palace, seeing the lonely Chang'e and the rabbit, and also as if I had seen Wu Gang cutting down a sweet osmanthus tree(桂花树).
Our family sat together in the living room, eating sweet mooncakes, having some fruits like grapes, apples and oranges, and telling stories about the moon. We were really happy.
I made a video call to my uncle, aunt, and grandparents who are far away in the United States. My grandmother asked me about my grades of the schoolwork, my aunt asked me what kind of mooncake I ate, and my grandfather asked me if I had a good time in the music club. Through the phone, our whole family knew more about each other. I felt especially happy. Then my father told me some stories about how he spent the Mid-Autumn Festival when he was young. I didn't go to bed until about eleven o'clock.
This evening is truly unforgettable for me!
