hello,

Iam grsophie and i come from Greece.
Today, i'm going to talk to you about an important festival in my country, the Moon festival. We celebrate it in autumn and it lasts one day. Before the festival people prepare traditional mooncakes to eat or send to their friends and relatives.
On that day greeks families get together to celebrate the end of the harvest season. Later in the evening, families watch the full moon, eat mooncakes and sing moon poems. In Greece the moon cymbolises beauty. The greeks believe that on that evening little children can see a lady on the moon. When children make a wish to the Lady on the Moon, their dreams can come true.
Everyone has a great time.
Thank you for listening to me. Are there any questions???
