River Hong Bao 2007

finally back from a long break from this blog..i have decided to just add more pictures for a fresh start.. here it goes..



this is beside the statue of 'cai sheng ye'

my dad and mom


me and mom

haha..my bro dont allow me to post his photo here..kind of silly..

this is a 'fa cai shu' or 'moneytree' where they are many bells hung on it with various labels such as ' pin an ' , ' da ji ' and ' fa cai '. you can see many people throwing their coins(deng kia) onto the tree, trying to hit the bells.the bells also come in various sizes, so i guess the smaller u get, the luckier you can get from it. well, i managed to hit a small bell, abt the size of my thumb. the bell was ' FA CAI ' !!



im glad that im able to go river hong bao this yr and experience the cny 'atmosphere'..becos the last time i went there was 5 yrs old.. river hong bao is not at all ' out-dated '.. it's a place where u bring along your family and cherish the time together, since most of us( teenagers ) dont really spend much time with our family.
