On the Lion Dancers

Few days back when we were at my uncle's place, one of my cousins called up to Grandpa's house to ask another uncle of ours there whether his eldest sister had come down from her place in the mountains. LMAO. Little cousin came back telling us that there'll be lion dance over at Grandpa's at 2 in the afternoon. And so we headed over to Grandpa's house.

We waited and waited. When the lion dance team finally finished at the neighbour's house, it was about 2 hours we waited. We even gave our initial plans of visiting another auntie of ours a go because it was too late, but before that... Let's talk about the L.I.O.N.s ROARRRrrrrr

The lions went into the house and nodded their heads around to the beat before coming out to the front of the main door and started munching away. Uncle fed the lions some cabbages and some oranges. It was quite some time before the lions finally spit them out into really pretty flowers!

Too bad though, I forgot to charge my phone, and I didn't bring my camera... I totally missed the opportunity for some photoshoot! Sad! T.T

But at least, I guess I managed to get the 2 photos attached in the post as consolation...

The lion dance team apparently were from this temple somewhere I don't know. The members consisted of some teenagers. There was a manager coming together with them. It seemed though, not all of the members are Chinese because we thought we saw some natives as well. Speaking of 1Malaysia eh!

But of course, you know I know who my attention falls onto. LMAO.

ROOOAAARRRrrrrrr.....
