Year of Ox

The Lunar New Year falls on 26 Jan 2009. On its eve, most families would gather to have a feast, called the reunion dinner.

I had a simple but wonderful reunion dinner with my loved ones. We booked a bbq pit in Doris's new condo. She prepared a lot of ingredients for steamboat and barbeque. While the adults enjoyed the steamboat, the kids preferred to grill the sausages and meat. We had a swim before the dinner too.

The weather was simply great - cloudy, windy but with occasional spells of light rain.

We even did a crazy thing - we stayed together till midnight to watch the fireworks. Yes, there was a firework visible from Doris's unit.

Happy Lunar New Year to everybody.
