Gong Xi Fatt Choy from New Orleans

Gong Xi Fatt Choy and Happy Chinese New Year from New Orleans! There is not much chinese new year celebration in New Orleans because everyone is so consumed with Mardi Gras and the chinese community here is quite small.

We tried extremely hard to find a lion dance for Meredith and Isaac to watch. The vietnamese village in West Bank of New Orleans had a lion dance celebration but we missed it. And then there is a chinese church here that put together a 15minutes lion dance celebration as well, we also missed that lion dance performance by 15minutes. So this year the only lion dance Meredith and Isaac saw are from Youtube.
