Tomb-sweeping Day
On April 4, my family went to I-land to sweep tombs. It's an important holiday that many people will reunion . We get up early to set up early because there will be traffic jams that day. After 3 hours we got I-land. We went to grandmo's home and met my uncle, aunt, and cousins. And then we went ti sweep tomb together. We had to sweep four tombs. My mom prepared four cardboard which were filled with monetary papers, incense sticks, snacks, soda, a kind of special paper.Besides, my mom prepared knives and newspaper. We needed to clean the tomb and cut off the bay. I like this feeling that my family is gathering together and finish some thing. After we grew up, we had less time being together. My brothers and I will work at different places, and we will get married or live at different places in the future. I can remember the old days. We played together, fight. I teased my younger brother in my childhood, but now I can't tease him anymore. He became taller and stronger than I. It seems that those things happened yesterday.

For me, Tomb-aweeping is really a hot work, especially under the shining sun.
Indeed, the tomb-serrping can really unite the whole family.
In the past I didn't like tomb-sweeping holiday because it's hot and crowded.
But in fact some relatives you never see in other days would all appear.
It seemed that we are a big family.
This kind of feeling is strange for me.
