Last night I went to to Chinatown with my boyfriend and attended the Mid Autumn Moon Festival Celebration at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden. It was really wonderful - live music, tea, moon cake, fortune telling and an incredibly bright full moon.

Afterwards we visited the Night Market, which was on it's very last day. It's one of our favourite places to go on summer nights. We shared a take out box of chow mein, a green apple bubble tea, and bought home several stalks of lucky bamboo.
