Happy New Year - 02-06-2008, 07:46 PM


Tomorrow (February 7, 2008) is the Lunar New Year (aka, Chinese New Year). I wrote this up for my blog and it made me feel rather nostalgic. This April will be a year since my last visit to China and, well, I wanna go back!

Happy New Year, especially you RATS out there. My wife is a rat, and also an acupuncturist. She has been to China to study Traditional Chinese Medicine and work in the hospitals a couple times. Then she heads on over to Tibet. I'll have to go with her one of these years. She has a big celebration planned this evening.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!新年快乐
You guys should go check out Richardson, the little Chinatown. There will be lion/dragon dances. But I am not sure about the exact date and time. But you can always find out from one of the stores there.

Happy New Year...
This is when all our factories in China shut down for one or two weeks....it is a good down time for us all.

Don't you meant:

Happy Lunar New Year to everyone.
Wish I could take off work today to go shoot some dragon dance in the Bellaire/Hongkong Mall IV area.
