Chinese New Year - Singapore River Hongbao 2010-Carnival

I have finally managed to post all the Chinese New Year's photos...lol. Been caught up with too many commitments.

Besides exhibiting lots of lantern, there was a mini carnival at the Singapore River Hongbao.

And I love this the most. The kids looked like hamsters in the giant ball. The water in the pool is not very deep.

Chinese New Year 2010 - Singapore River HongBao 2010-Dragon and Phoenix Porcelain Lamp

Sorry that I am so busy to continue with the photos of Singapore River Hongbao 2010 due to my busy commitments.

The Dragon and Phoenix Lantern attracted a lot of attention. They are made of porcelain plates, bowls, cups, spoon, etc. Fantastic.

Difficult to take a good photo with so many spotlights around the lanterns.

A short video showing the lantern.

I will be out of action for a while.

Brother in law having heart attack and in hospital.

Got to be there to give sister some moral support and accompany her.

My World Tuesday - God of Fortune

Oh this is my favourite at the Singapore River Hongbao. This is the God Of Fortune.

It is not raining and why are these girls carrying the umbrella upside down?

If you looked at the two videos below you will know exactly what they are doing. The God of Fortune will released some lucky numbers and these girls are trying to catch the numbers with their umbrellas...lol

The numbers are used to purchase 4D (four digits) lottery. I dont buy 4D lottery so I dont collect these numbers.

I collected some to take photos to show you how they looked like. Some of them have numbers and some dont.

The video shows these girls trying to collect the numbers with their numbers...lol

It was so beautiful that night when the God of Fortune suddenly released more numbers. It looked like it was raining golden showers.

I was standing behind the God of Fortune and as the wind was blowing in my direction, some numbers fall onto me...hahahaha and no I did not use these numbers to purchase any lottery.
