The 2nd of January.

According to traditional Chinese customs, a married daughter could only go back to her parents' home every Lunar New Year on the 2nd of January. She and her family could not go back to her parents' home before the 2nd of January, otherwise, her parents will become poorer!

So we usually go to grandmother's house every Lunar New Year on the 2nd of January. My grandmother lived in Yunlin, it spends about 4~5 hours when we go to Yunlin every years. We normally get up at 4:00a.m and come back to Taipei next day at 2:00a.m., we have to rush and rush every times because we will get lots of congestion if we did not rush - especially on such kind of important holidays. So it wastes a lot of time and made us exhausted.

But we did not need to go to grandmother's house this year, my grandmother stays in Taipei so we could celebrate it in Taipei, it had a great fun!
