Mid-Autumn Festival Holiday

Today's weather:  High = 26  Low = 21
Cloudy
 
This is a traditional Chinese holiday marked by a 3-day weekend, also coinciding with Teachers Day.  You gotta love this start to the school year.  Next up soon enough will be the National Holiday in October.  However, the main deterrent with Chinese holidays is that everyone else is traveling.  Having gone through his numerous times now, the way I see it there are only two options
 
1.   Make it a staycation.   This is best done for the shorter holidays
2.   Travel to a SE Asian country.   Best done during the longer holidays.
 
Of course, if you have the luxury of getting holidays when the masses are working, then China travel becomes more of an option.  For those stuck on fixed public holidays like myself, there is really no way of that happening.
