1st day in Australia

I first came to Australia about 6 years ago. It took 14 hours from my hometown to Australia. I was a little bit airsick so I thought that I would go home immediately. My husband and my friends came to the airport to pick me up with a bunch of beautiful flower.I heard a lot about Australia before I came. I was both excited and anxious because I came to a new country I didn't know how my future is going to be?
When we were on the way home I observed the sky is so clear and took a
deep breath I felt very comfortable even changed the mood. After took a short rest we went shopping at hurstville. we met a friend who is working with my husnand We talked a lot. we had dinner at a restaurant.we ate a lot of seafood which is my favourite.

I got a good impression of Australia. such as people are friendly, the environment is clear and clean and I like the food very much which we ate. since that time I pleased to live here.

Lantern Festival

It was lantern festival yesterday. Almost all Chinese usually celebrate it every year. we eat eggs and moon cakes., that's why peole also call it Moon Festival. They fill in different meat and different fruit inside the cake. The date cake is one of my favourites, but I think it's too sweet. We put some fruit and moon cakes on a plate on the table at night. At that time all the members of the family get together to celebrate this special time. Yesterday we just stayed home because we were busy.
