Chap Goh Mei (Last Day of the Chinese New Year)

It has been a very hectic 2 weeks and its the last day if the Chinese New Year.  We were at another friend's open house and the kids had great fun just watching the Lion Dance and attending their childhood friends' birthday party - quite an unusual combination if you ask me.

The Current Malaysian Champion Lion Dance Troup giving their all on the stilts.

Sean as usual being a pest - putting a mandarin orange on top of C's head.

Giving ang pow (red packet comtaining money) to the lion for luck.

Receiving a mandarin orange back from the lion for good luck too.

After all the travelling and fanfare of the Chinese New Year, w e decided to stay home and have a simple dinner tonight.  A nice quiet change to the late open houses that we have been attending for the past few nights.
