Winnie the pooh and friends have decided to come to Singapore to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Why? Because they are celebrating the year of the rat with Mickey Mouse. Mickey is seen in many Chinese New Year Decorations and Cards, etc for the year of the rat.

Closer look at Mickey and Donald donning the lion dance suit. They looked cute.

Can you see Mickey and Minnie in the centre of the decorations?.jpg)
Closer look at Mickey and Minnie Decorations. Have you noticed the chinese character "FU"? It's the only time when a Chinese word is hung/pasted upside down intentionally. The reason being "Fu dao" means "luck or fortune has arrived". But the word "dao" can also means upside-down or arrived. So, the character 福, fu, upside-down is a play on words implying fortune has arrived.

Beautiful decoration in Singapore as usual. I read on the net that the Rat is not such a nice character, I hope it's not true, will you tell us about the Rat character later on in your blog?
Hahaha, Mickey is well like everywhere. I wondered if Mickey can speak Mandarin. :)
Kitem, Happy Birthday in advance and I am sure you will have lots of fun in K.L. I am sure you will take lots of photo to share with fellow bloggers. I will try to share some interesting horoscope about the Rat. :)
What fun to see Singapore, Alice. Wow, Sentosa Ferry Terminal gone... I remember that place from a visit many years ago. In fact I sent the link to your site to my mother and stepfather who lived there years ago when he worked there. Thanks!
Hi "me", am glad my blog bring fond memories to you and your parents. You can visit my food blog for delicious food and stories too. :) I just include a story about the kitchen god and the "nian gao" in there. Hope everyone like it and thanks everyone for visiting my blog.
Love those wonderful colours. I have such good memories of Singapore as I always used to take stopovers en route from and to Australia in the late 80s.
Thanks so much for visiting Menton Daily Photo.
Looks like a happy place. I used to like Mickey and Minnie when I was a kid.
