Ben: at HDB celebration of Lantern Festival

Posted by spots (Singapore, Singapore) on 1 October 2007 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

One great thing about living in a HDB estate is all the community celebrations that are organised. Over the weekend, we took a stroll down to the nearby atrium where we got to take part in some festivities - there was games for kids, a lantern parade (for kids as well), a dragon dance, and lots of really kitsch happy chinese music.

Here's Ben looking quite 'sotong' at the going-ons. Dan was a bit better - alert as usual, he was initially scared of the dragon. Then, he excitedly exclaimed at the loong dancing dragon, "Train! chumchumchumchumchum! Dragon happy! Train!"
