As per the lunar canlendar here,today is the last day of the tiger year,namely New year's Eve,we will have year-ending reunion dinner according to tradition.This is the most important dinner during a year and for it, people come their homwtown as far as possble ,no matter how far they live in or work in.After the dinner,we usually give kids gift money.At eight o' clock in the evening,we watch the Spring Festival evening gala on CCTV.Some people may stay up celebrating the New Year.I did it when I was a kid.
Tomorrow is the first day of the rabbit year, the lunar new year's day,we start to pay a new year visit.

@changjiangzhibin89 It is correct, I was born in 1951. I thought it was a wood rabbit this year, thanks for correcting me.

What will the rabbit bring us? (I hope it's not Monty Python's Killer Rabbit.)

@changjiangzhibin89 Interesting, but I've always seen the man in the moon, not an apothecary rabbit.

I know nothing about Monty Python's Killer Rabbit,but our rabbit is a cute one.In fairy tale,it lives in the moon and pounds the herbal medicine to a fine powder all day.
