Today is the day we had the Chinese traditional gifts exchange between the bride's and groom's families. Both families are so happy and excited!
Thereafter we went to the temple. We catered vegetarian food for all religious followers who were present. This is known as the act of giving Dāna. As a token of appreciation for our goodwill, we received blessings from the Venerables on behalf of Buddha =)
As the act of giving Dāna was characterized by unattached and unconditional generosity, we therefore donated any congratulatory ang pows that were given to us from close friends at the temple.
Bear then went back to Melbourne via the usual 9pm SQ227 flight. See bear soon in 9 days time! Miss ya already ;p
