It's amazing... those Chinese have a festival every 5 or 6 weeks. I've got to say, what a culture. Except for them flooding our county with junk products, they must have some awesome things to do over there.
The Lantern Festival on Monday... I haven't researched the background on this one, but all the photos are cool to see...

	I just returned from China. I love it there! We Americans look behind us at our history and we see nothing...200 years...nothing really. The Chinese look behind themselves and they see over 5,000 years of history, wisdom and culture!javascript:emoticon(''); The Lantern Festival is the last celebration of the Chinese Lunar New Year Festivities. If anyone gets a chance to go to China, don't hesitate! It is so full of wonder and mystery, beautiful scenery, natural wonders like you have never seen and the most hospitable people on planet. You could spend 20 years in China and not see everything that is worth seeing! I will be moving there to retire and live out the rest of my life sometime in the next four years. I can't wait!
