Chinese New Year traditionally last from 1st to 15th day of the new year (Cap Goh Mei). These days presents an opportunity for our love ones, friends and relatives to visit each other to offer their good wishes. Red packet (Ang Pau) are given from the older to the younger ones.
Gifts are usually bought when visiting friends or relatives at their home. Mandrain oranges are in season at this time and make very suitable new year present because of the gold colour (which means good luck and prosperity).
Made me smile looking at all the pictures of people smiling! Gong Hei Fat Choy!
