Since Geoff’s mum is here for a few weeks and has been here twice before, we decided to show her some things that she (and we) hadn’t seen before. The Jiangsu-Taiwan Lantern Festival is on for one month at Moon Harbour, and we decided to visit before the snow came (it’s snowing here right now).






The lanterns were huge, and reminded us all a bit of our visit to Harbin two years ago. Perhaps not as cold, though…

Of course, when you go somewhere with Nannie, it’s inevitable that you’ll end up with a knick knack of some kind (especially when you’re in China – the land of cheap plastic toys).

Beautiful lights! How much do they love the knick knacks though!
I know! And how could we refuse – especially when I think Nannie enjoys buying the stuff even more than the grandchildren enjoy receiving them!!
And you were impressed with my photos! Ummm…no. Yours are awesome. And those lanterns look magnificent.
This excellent posting, “Jiangsu-Taiwan Lantern Festival | The
Purple Giraffes” shows the fact that u understand everything that you r speaking about!
I completely agree. With thanks ,Chastity
