Lion Dance Experience during CNY : Feb-13

Lion Dancing has always been a passion in me since young, but passion sometimes is difficult to sustain, particularly when various other priorities in life start to come into play.  Fortunately with Adrian and the team running the Xin-Yang troupe well, I have the luck to at least able to experience my 'passion' yearly.

During Hong and Dor's house warming in CNY, they have invited Xin-Yang to pluck green.  This year, the troupe brought a cute Fortune God which out-shine the lion dance performance.  Everyone is queuing up to take photo with this Big Headed cartoon-liked Fortune God, definitely something very refreshing and fun.

At Daniel's place, the gals also put up a good captivating LED lights lion dance performance. They are really skillful, with much hard-work incurred of course.  Then come the moment when the 'old uncles' itchy hands cannot resist anymore and want to be a part of the performance also... so there you go, a bunch of old mates, playing the instruments like they use to many years ago.
