Mid-Autumn Festival 2013

First pics of the new school year!!

The last three days (Thursday, Friday, Saturday) were a three day holiday here in Nanjing, celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival.  Why it is called that since we are still sitting at 29 degrees Celsius plus humidity I don't know, but involves days off of school and that is always nice.
I didn't do too much over the holiday, did a little bit of shopping and lesson planned but today I went out with one of the new teachers here in Nanjing named Eric and one of our Grade 12 students, Sara who showed us parts of Nanjing.  And part of it was somewhere I had not yet visited yet.

Our first stop was Hunan Road Walking Street where there was a Taiwanese food festival going on.  Didn't eat much, since it was mostly finger food but I did eat some mini crabs that had been deep fried in a batter shell and legs and all. 

This vendor was selling tofu and sauce, we really liked the table that they used to cook and serve the food.
