Eid on Different Day

Last year, there were different dates in celebrating Eid. On 30 and 31 august 2011 was the day of eid al-fitr.

Last Eid al-fitr feast was different than usual, because there was celebrated on august 30 and 31. And at that time I celebrated on 30^th. Although different I still celebrated it with enthusiasm.

On august 30^th morning, my family and I performed Eid pray on the field. After that, we went home. We got home to eat together before I and my family got ready to go to grandma’s house. After getting ready we headed straight to grandmother’s house on foot, because my grandma’s house was close enough from my house, which was about 50 meters. When we got there, there were many brothers and sisters who had come.

And in the grandmother’s house, there were many jokes. When we would leave, we usually greeted out brothers and sisters. After going to grandmother’s house, my family and I went to neighbors’ house. My family and I went to neighbors’ house to sillaturahmi.

The next day at 31 my family and I went to neighbors that celebrate Eid that day.

Although celebrating the feast of eid al-fitr in different days, I was still happy, even though the atmosphere was different, the important thing I could gather with my brother.
