Happy New Year to all of my Chinese friends out there. Today we went down to Chinatown to see what all the fuss was about with this Chinese New Year. It was pretty crowded and loud down there and I saw a lot of kids with fireworks and snap caps. Mom bought me a hat as a souvenir. I also got to see a dragon and some bands banging on drums. It is the year of the pig and everywhere we went we saw people hawking products with pigs on them. I had a fun afternoon.
Dad rescued me from the rice fields.
There went the dragon.
There was an orchestra of school kids playing. We listened for a little while. They were pretty good.
The whole experience tired me out. Time to go home for a nap.
