The last two weeks have been amazing because it is the Chinese New Year. New Year is a bigger and more important holiday here than at home. I didn't know than New Year in China isn't the same time as ours. This might sound odd,but it isn't even on the same date every years. Did you know than New Year in China starts with the first new moon of the new Year,and it ends on the day of the full moon fifteen days later? I was a,bit confused by all this,but Mrs.Lee explained that the China calender is based on the movements of the moon and the sun,so their New Year must fit in with this.
