Chinese New Year 2015 Lion Dance - Honolulu, Hawaii

Honolulu's Chinatown was bustling with activity Friday, February 13, as crowds of people helped celebrate the Year of the Sheep (or Goat). Firecrackers accompanied lion dance groups as they made their way to various Chinatown merchants, blessing them with good luck and prosperity in a tradition known as Choi Cheng.

A friend shared this video on email. Since I missed the Chinatown festivities, hope you enjoy this. It's about 3 minutes of lion dancing and firecrackers.

感觉国外的过年气氛浓厚多了，在国内基本上没什么过年的气氛了。过年只是个形式罢了
