They believe that celebrating and eating together brings good luck. Let’s have a look at some Indonesian celebrations. 　　Would you be surprised to find a New Year’s Day in March？ Indonesians on the island（岛） of Bali celebrate Nyepi, their New Year, in March or April on the night of the new moon. It is a fresh start for the people of Bali. On the eve of Nyepi, families and friends get together at the fair. They carry a big monster made of wood around the village three times. After that, people put it on fire, hoping to drive away bad things. 目 录 导 航 二 一 4 　　After Nyepi, a Turun Tanah celebration begins to celebrate a child’s first steps. At the celebration, parents invite friends and family to a party to introduce the baby. They put different things such as a pen, a mirror and a toy computer around their baby. If the baby picks up a pen, he or she may be a writer in the future. 　　While Turun Tanah celebrates the future of a family, Galungan celebrates its past. People who passed away（去世） go back “home” during this ten-day celebration. And family members do their best to make them happy. People put bamboo sticks along the street. They take part in the celebrations and visit their family and village temples. Special performances（表演） tell stories from the past. 目 录 导 航 二 一 5 　　A year of festivals is coming to an end.
