Easter

I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend!  I had a nice three day weekend, not due to Good Friday or Easter but to that not so famous holiday called Tomb Sweeping Day.  Basically a chance for the Chinese to pay their respects to deceased family members.  Historically they go to the tomb or burial places and burn paper (fake) money to pay respects, clean the tomb and remember their loved ones. 


My weekend was spent catching up with old friends.  I went down to Dongguan and had dinner Friday night with my old China team from my previous company.  A good chance to catch up as I hadn't seen them since resigning.  Then Saturday into Shekou where I lived before and dinner/drinks with friends followed by a Easter brunch on Sunday with a large group.  Then a relaxing day here in Shanghai on Monday before works starts back up tomorrow.
