Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds...

Shake Up the Moon!
Today is another big day after the Chinese spring festival ,full moon eclipse. As another traditional festival in china, people all over china would celebrate by playing fireworks loudly. there is a legend about this day. it is said on this day people play fireworks to scare away the ghosts in their life. nowadays people hang out with family and friends in the evening to shake off the illness.

After a festival crab dinner, mom and i went out. because of the surgery on my neck, i was carefully armed to teeth in case of accident. my daddy caught cold and he would rather stay home to keep guard against the ghosts.
the town seemed to be shaking with the thundering sound of fireworks from everywhere. people was moving slowly in the street, shocked by the appalling fireworks.
it was magnificently gorgeous, sparkling. the dark sky was decorated with the picturesque view like daylight.
say hello, mom
the moon was up in the sky, embracing the whole town gracefully.
