            I’ll never forget my visit to Hong Kong. When I arrived, everybody was very busy with the preparations involved. The atmosphere was fantastic. There were bright colours and delicious smells everywhere. The local people were cleaning every corner of their houses and decorating the walls with red pieces of paper.

            Another custom is to cook fish on New Year’s Eve and eat it the next day. My friend told me that they wanted to have something to eat on the first day of the year.

            I was really looking forward to New Year’s Eve Dinner. The whole family got together and everyone was really happy. I noticed that the grandparents and parents gave children red envelopes with money inside. After dinner they all started playing cards for good luck. Nobody went to sleep before midnight. At midnight the great event begins: fireworks! I was really amazed. All around the city I could see and hear colourful fireworks. It was incredible and I was really excited.
