A weekend full of special days

Friday was Opium Suppression Movement Day. Saturday was June 4. And today we have off for Dragon Boat Festival!

Dragon Boat Festival is the special time of year where Chinese people eat rice dumplings steamed in lotus leaves in remembrance of some poet who committed suicide.

My favorite Chinese holiday though went down on March 28 - Serfs Emancipation Day! Here you can see a China Daily slideshow of all the happy Tibetans celebrating the exile of their spiritual leader slave master.

Yay!
