Wedding Party and Tuan Chau Island Photos

Our Wedding Party and Tuan Chau Island Photos

I'm back at last... it's been more than two weeks since the last blog entry so it was high time to do something.

Moon and I went back to Vietnam on September 29th for the Autumn Festival break. Although we got married in the legal sense earlier this summer in Tobermory, Scotland, a wedding party was organised by Moon's family for Tuesday October 3rd in Hanoi. We also took a short break to Tuan Chau Island which is near to Halong Bay and not more than 3 hours drive from Hanoi.

Hope you will enjoy browsing through them.

Boi roi, That was one thing that surprised me about the wedding. It was over so quickly! It went from 4.30pm until 6pm for most guests. By contrast we were at the wedding studio for album photos from 4pm until 1.30am!!

I'm Marrying a Moon Cake! Are You?

It’s that time of year again… festival time! Something to do with moon cakes I think. Here in China every one’s getting ready for their annual week holiday. Every where I look in Shanghai shoppers are carrying their gold foiled bags filled with elegantly presented gift boxes inside of which are a variety of cakes and liquored drinks.

And I’m about to set off to Vietnam this evening to celebrate my marriage to my Moon “cake”! There will be some four hundred guests next Tuesday evening at the Kim Lien hotel in Hanoi. I’m not a big crowd person so I’m feeling a little nervous (please wish me luck and courage). Once I’m there I’ll surely be shining along with my Moon and enjoying the cake!

The “cake’s” parents and family have been fantastically busy preparing for the big occasion and I know they have all worked so hard in organizing it. I’m proud of them and I truly hope they will really enjoy the day. In a way it’s their big day to celebrate their only daughter-cake’s marriage to a humble English man.

Later in the week we hope to be traveling up to Tuan Chau Island for a few relaxing days where I shall indulge in a delicious cake eating experience.

I hope to be able to post some pictures of the big day and our trip to Tuan Chau Island on my Yahoo Flickr album.

In the mean time I would like to wish you all a very happy harvest festival of whatever kind wherever you may be on the planet. Have your cake and enjoy!
