<content:encoded><![CDATA[Spring Festival is a time for family. People go home, stay at home today, eat too much, watch the television gala performance; w hich goes on for hours until midnight on almost every TV channel.

If you are outside China, many China towns have a parade to remind them of home. In China, they are home, and so no parade.]]></content:encoded>
