... and the lions were beaten...

Last Sunday our condo had a Lion Dance performance, celebrating the Chinese New Year. This, at least, was the second year we had such performance, and it seemed that everyone - the spectators - was more prepared and skillful.

Part of the performance was the lions giving out oranges. Last year Anya and Ben were overwhelmed with the oranges they got; this year they brought big shopping bags.

Others decided to take faith into their own hands. They decided to claim their oranges rather than waiting for them. Poor lions. It was all chaos.


The performance was stunning, though.
