Chinese New Year is here! I'm thinking in the color red. The festivities last two weeks, and our Classical Chinese Garden in Portland has something special each day. I visited the garden with a friend yesterday to have tea and watch a Lion Dance. Here are some lovely photos from the day.
I loved the reflection of the red lanterns on the water.
Each dragon is made of two dancers...these were very talented children!
Both boys and girls, and I was so impressed with their strength and agility.

I'll come next year and bring Miss T.
ReplyDeleteSo great and wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. It looks like a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteI would have loved seeing this. I need to stop by soon. I wanted to go to the floating of the lanterns, but too much on the plate right now. Thanks for showing the beautiful red lanterns.
ReplyDeleteI wish we lived near a large Chinese population so we could see this too. The photos are a great trip instead - you're doing a good job with them!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing sight! And to think of having tea in such a setting!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such fun!
