Had lunch at the uncle's house today. I dropped my wife and step-kids off this morning so they could help cook, and then I had to go to work. I got back just as they were bringing the table in from the porch and setting out the food. Even though we're in the US, they still put the bamboo mat on the floor and we sit around the mat with the food in the middle, same as we did in Vietnam.

Our house is all decked out. The prayers start at midnight, and then a couple of hours at the chua tomorrow. There's a big Tet festival in San Jose this weekend. We're going to try to make it this year. Last year we spent most of the day at Kim Son temple outside Gilroy, and ended up arriving at the festival just as they were closing the gates.

I swear I feel more surrounded by Vietnamese culture in California than I did in Vietnam. :blush:

Happy new year, all!
