Firecrackers and Fireworks during the countdown of Chinese New Year 2015 in Chinatown Singapore. Video taken by my hubby on eve of Chinese New Year, I did not want to go down to Chinatown as it was supercrowded.
It is illegal to light up firecrackers in Singapore but only on certain occasions,like Chinese New Year and the mid autumn festival, firecrackers were lighted up in Chinatown, etc by professional.

In a few hours time, we will welcome the Year of the Goat/Sheep.
Just finished reunion dinner with family and awaiting for the Chinese New Year programme on television. Hubby will head to chinatown to soak in the atmosphere of shopping at the last minute. It will be super crowded and I am one who disliked being caught in human traffic jam hahahaha. Best place to be in now is home watching the telly and resting, tomorrow I will be cooking a feast to welcome my guests.
During this Chinese New Year, almost every weekend, there were be a getai(Stage performance) in Kreta Ayer Square in Chinatown, Singapore.
Videos of the Getai/Performance, very entertaining.
The above performance in mandarin.
The above performance in Hokkien.
The above performance in cantonese by a well known former TV actress.
The below two videos taken by my hubby, hahaha his first time using his iphone to video, he should take a front view of the singer. What a waste, the singer was wearing very glamourous costume.
The above performance was a very famous cantonese opera song.
Another famous song by the singer.
