Celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival


The Moon Festival (also called the Moon or Mid-
Autumn Festival). When the moon is at its maximum
brightness for the entire year, the Chinese celebrate
"Zhong Qiu Jie" which means "Mid-Autumn Festival.

Marilyn & Jordan joining in on the celebration.....

But they will not eat the Mooncakes! Mooncake
is a Chinese pastry traditionally eaten during the
Mid-Autumn Festival. Mooncakes are rich, heavy,
and dense and a thick pasty filling is surrounded
by a relatively thin crust & may contain yolks from
salted duck eggs.

They prefer just to participate in some of the
games.
