Valentines day
In China you count the days in a different way. You have a moon calendar and according to that calendar is it the 17th of July now.
Last week was “the seventh evening of the seventh moon” here in China and every
year on that day you celebrate “Qi Xi”. On this day, a story says that two
lovers who are separated from each other by the milky way are able to meet each
other – only this time once a year. That’s why this is like Chinese Valentines
Day!
