Anya’s first National Day Parade

Anya went to watch the NDP Preview on Saturday with my mum and aunts, or according to her, with “two 姨婆s and one 阿嬤”. It was her first ever NDP so I was worried that she’d be hot and irritated but she had a blast! She was happily cheering, dancing and waving her flag. She was frightened by the noise when the fireworks started but I think she really enjoyed herself. Every time the ad for the NDP comes on TV, she would ask my mum, “Remember the fireworks?”
