Today, Gong Gong, Po Po, Mummy and I went to Chinatown.......cos Po Po said wanted to go and take pictures of the big dragon (She saw on tv)........She thought the opening ceremony was already over last weekend.... My blur Po Po... Guess what??
The official light-up and opening ceremony was actually today!! So we (by a stroke of luck) managed to revel in the festivities and watched great performances, not to forget my favourite lion dance and dragon dance and of course fireworks! :)
It was a long long wait though as we were there around 5pm and the actual performance only started at 7pm......However, starting from 6pm, some of the performers were rehearsing their moves so we were kept entertained......hehe...
Patience is a virtue......
Wow, this must be the longest dragon I ever see!
1st round of firecrackers and fireworks.........
Riveting performances....
We didn't think the super long dragon could go up the stage but it did!
The 2nd and final round of firecrackers & fireworks.....
After the fireworks, all these coloured paper shreds were released into the air......... Everyone tried to catch for good luck.......
Gong Gong, Po Po and I each managed to catch one gold paper..... One gold paper dropped onto the happy meal cardboard Po Po was holding in her hand...
My Mummy managed to catch two, one gold and one red!! Good Job Mummy :)
It was almost 9pm by this time.......and we went home after this......We were all so tired.....
Gong Gong, Po Po and Mummy stood for 4 hours straight.... I am the lucky one, I got to sit down on the kerb and also carried by Gong Gong some of the time to watch the performances.. ;p
