Hi, In Eastern Asia, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival (the August fifteen in the lunar calendar). It's a holiday for children, and it's holiday for family, too. They have party-moon with moon cake and the lighten lantern. People see the harvest moon in the heaven, and they tell the legend about the moon together. In my country, the adults tell for their children the legend about Mr.Cuoi and Ms.Hang.
Give you a haiku of Basho: Moon’s mirror Seen on a balmy autumn night New Year for the eyes
In my country , we call the Mid-Autumn Festival is "Tet Trung Thu". “Trung Thu” means Mid-Autumn, and “Tet” means Holiday. We also call our tradition New Year Holiday is “Tet" or "Tet Nguyen Dan" ("Nguyen Dan" means the first early morning).
Long time no talk. Thank you for giving me that beautiful Basho haiku and the explanation of your holiday. I hope you enjoyed it very much. I also hope you have a wonderful rest of your week. Take care and kind regards.
