The holiday about ghosts


Halloween is coming. This is an important holiday in America. This is my first time to celebrate Halloween. Last week I joined in a party bout Halloween. We played games and made the pumpkin. There were a lot of fun. In China, we do not have holiday in this time, but we have a holiday about ghosts. In April, we have a ghost holiday. On that day, we should go to the tombs for our died family members. We should put some food and flowers in the front of the tomb and fire some money. This is not the real money, this is a kind of money that the people can use it when they are died. Because in China we believe that the died people can live in another world and wait for a new life. So the people need the money in another world. Also, we should fix the tomb. This is a serious holiday. We cannot have party and fun, because this is a sad day. I think the Halloween is more interesting than the Chinese ghost holiday. Because we can have more party and more fun!!

That's interesting. I'm glad that you enjoyed yourself. Also the photo that you put up is neat. Did you carve that pumpkin yourself?
