Yesterday was the 15th day of the 8th month of the Lunar Calender. In the past the Chinese would celebrate the Mid Autumn Festival with a lavish feast with family members and then sip tea and enjoy mooncakes and other delicacies under the full autumn moon. Children would parade the streets with lighted lanterns of various shapes and sizes. It good to see that the tradition is still alive in these modern times.
All the famous bakeries and large hotels are selling their brands of mooncakes. Many have ventured beyond the traditional lotus and egg yolk filling to other odd combinations. Even Hotel Nikko has set up a stall at the Mid Valley MegaMall to promote their cakes.
I met up with 3 important experts from ACAP for dinner. We were so busy eating that I forgot to take photos during the meal. However as the night was still young and the moon exceptionally bright that night, we took a slow drive to Kuala Lumpur to view the Petronas Twin Towers.
Posing with old friends outside the Shah Village Hotel. The experts will be leaving for Kuching and Bintulu in Sarawak the next day to visit the new EANET monitoring sites. They will be welcomed by our colleagues in East Malaysia and local university experts.
