dragon boat festival

The happiest thing about dragon boat festival was having a day off.

During this three days holiday, i went back to the south to visit my grandma. For me, the best thing of going back there is having a lot of delicious food which we don't have in Taipei with just a little budget. 

This week was a week full of rain in Taipei. However, it was always sunny day in the south. In fact, it was just too hot that was really killing people. Although i want to do my homework since that finals are coming, the weather just made us don't want to move or think at all. My grandma was really incredible, she didn't need  air conditioner at all. Nevertheless, we were almost melting....

During the holiday i also found out some fun traditional for dragon boat festival. At the noon, (about 11 o'clock) my grandma took out a really huge bottle of water on the road right outside our house. She said this was a kind of traditional that during the day of dragon boat festival , if using water heated under the sun to take a bath, people can wash away bad luck. So she was preparing to use this water to take a bath for my cousin's newly born son. 

This was the first time i heard of this tradition and was really cool.
