Lion Dance on New Year

After my morning rounds on the New Year Day, I went to Bukit Bintang to settle some bills when I noticed the roads heading towards Pavilion were blocked. I managed to get to the car park since it was well before noon and when I got to the main entrance, there were lion dance troupes all over Pavilion.

Apparently there was a competition from early in the morning. Many of the participants were school children and the place were filled.

The event where coming to the end when I settled in. I only managed to see the troupes clearing out after their performances. The entrance were still filled with people. There were events going on through out the day as if the Chinese New Year was just around the corner.

Quite a spectacle although I didn't bring the right hear for the occasion. The main foyer was still filled with Xmas decorations. I wonder what Pavilion would have in store this year. They always came up with the spectacular when the Chinese New Year came around.

Doing the Dance

Guess what was going on at the apartment when I arrived home after clinic? There was a lion dance troupe by the pool. I only managed to catch the end bit. Didn't even have time to change and see what was going on. Just some snaps from my balcony.

The children there were really having fun. Unfortunately both Idlan and Irfan already got plans for the day and were in Gombak. I would also have to go out to find lunch.

And with the new E-M1, I have an excuse for another photowalk ...
