This sounds like an interesting and important holiday for Chinese people.

Since Chyi Chin has disappeared off the face of the earth, I would like to guess where he is.

My guess is that he is in Hainan playing golf and getting a deep tan! Any other guesses?

Thanks Sandy.

I think 春节(ChunJie) is way bigger than Christmas.

It is so interesting that a huge number of people travel to home and family reunions.

I have read where most people travel by train and the railroads must work very hard

to make sure millions of people get home.

My favorite legend is the one of ZaoJun the Kitchen God. Is that widely practiced?  Isn't this also the propitious time to clean the house?

Now that I could do!

I also know a little about Red Packets. When my sister Cindy lived in Hawaii she sent me

the real thing. I use them to pay people back if I borrow a few dollars. I always

tell them to use the money at the Casino because it's "lucky money". Ha Ha

I don't know how to say it, but Happy ChunJie to every one.
