It is still (barely) Mid-Autumn Festival where I am.

I wish you all a peaceful, blessed, and safe Mid-Autumn Festival.

Naturally this is a national holiday in Kimonoko. We follow the traditional lunisolar calendar.

🌙 🌙 🌙

Stay safe and well, Liko-san! ☺️

For those not understanding what Liko is referring to, it’s slightly stormy where they are at the moment. ☺️
