新年快樂

We went down to Chinatown to check out the scene and get a killer Vietnamese sandwich. There were four or five crews doing the Lion Dance, to exorcise evil spirits and to summon luck and fortune.

Check out the firecracker rope hanging outside one restaurant. You know I wanted to light that shit up.

It certainly looked real. Why would you make a fake firecracker? The head of lettuce hanging is for the Lions.

One of the delis we go to got a blessing seconds before we entered.

Here's a Dim Sum House getting the double down.

Firecracker! Firecracker! Firecracker!
