This holiday, I went back to my country China, because I stayed in the UK during the Christmas and I miss my family very much. There is a spring festival at the beginning of last term.
Victoria Harbor, HONGKONG
It is the most important festival in China, which stands for the beginning of new year at lunar calendar. Most family members go back home to reunite and have dinner at the eve of new year. However, I did not have a vacation at that time and due to the long distance far away home, I did not go back to celebrate. After the spring festival, my homesick feeling became serious, so I booked a plane ticket at that time.
I arrived at Guangzhou and transferred to Jieyang, a city near my hometown at 11 p.m. on 23th March. When I reach home, it is very late and I felt quite hungry. My aunt has already cook porridge with duck for me. It is one of my favorite food and it made me feel that my holiday starts.
On the first day of my holiday, I visited my grandparents. They were delighted and prepared lots of delicious food for me. They are worried and curious about my life and study in foreign country and I care for their health. We had a happy talk on the whole day. Because of the jet lag, I was tired on the first several days and insomnious almost every night.

I tried my best to wake up before 10 a.m., went to supermarket to buy fresh vegetables with my mom and help her cook delicious food. My mother is excel at cooking and it is a happiness that enjoy the food that my mom cook. When I live far away her, I always miss the food she cook, especially the soup.
Most of my friend are studying in university in other cities, such as Guangzhou, Zhuhai and Shenzhen, so I cannot meet them when I went back home, but I arranged to travel in HK for two days with two good friend at early April. On the first day in HK, we spend nearly one and a half hour to queue up and pass the custom. After that, it took us another hour to Avenue of Star by underground. Fortunately, it is sunshine. My friends and I had a great time to enjoy the landscape of Victoria Harbour. On the afternoon, we took peak tram to the top of the Victoria Peak and overlook the night scene of HK. On the second day, it is raining from midday. We went shopping whole day and finally we were too tired to move.
Happy time always goes quickly. I had to go back Britain on April 12th. I donę° want to leave my parents but I did not cry in front of them since that I know that my parents are sad and anxious for me.
