How do you think a lunar year is calculated? Wouldn't be the same as ours as the moon is the Earth's satellite and the earth rotates around the sun. Our are you counting every 13 lunar cycles that occur in a year every 28 days? Just curious of your opinion of this??

It is always a tradition for my family members to go door to door for extend of our best wishes and concern to other relatives living nearby,so this year is no exception.It snowed this morning when some people still went out with an umbrella on a trip to visit intimate friends and relatives. This may sound a little crazy to some people but here we do this to show our concern to those who we may not encounter through the whole year unless they hold serious ceremonies or gatherings,therefore,I will take it as a good way to reunite with people and involve oueselves in a circle of trust. Happy Chinese New Year to you!
