Ding Libo's Diary December 18 Friday Weather Sunny Next Friday is Christmas. This is my first time to celebrate Christmas in China. I am going to travel to Shanghai with Xiaoyun. Young people in China also like to celebrate Christmas. There are Santa Clauses in many shopping malls. There are a lot of things in the malls and a lot of people buying things. At 10 o'clock in the morning, I went to the post office to send a package to my parents. It was ten Peking Opera CDs. My father likes Peking Opera very much, and my mother likes it too. I want to give them a surprise. I miss home and Canada. At 10:30 in the morning, my mother called me. I was not there, and Dawei asked my mother to call me again at noon. At noon, I received a call from my mother. I was so happy. My parents are in good health and they are very busy at work. My mother asked me to say hello to my grandmother. I told her that my brother and younger brother are also doing well. My brother works in a middle school and teaches English; my younger brother is traveling in the south. I also introduced my good friend Ma Dawei to her. My parents are going to travel to Europe for Christmas, and I wish them a happy trip.
