Happy Chinese NewYear

Today is the first day of the Chinese or Lunar New Year. These days, Chinese New Year is celebrated in a much less noisier atmosphere ever since firecrackers have been banned by the government several years ago. The only loud noise we hear comes from the drums of the lion dance troupes where drum beats accompany the dance. So far, I have not seen any lion dance performance but did hear the drums in the distance.

Best wishes to you for a new year filled with happinese, health and wealth.
