I was catching up on blogging and emails in the CBD this morning and decided to hit ChinaTown around lunch time to scope out the Chinese New Year scene. To be honest, I was also looking to satisfy my chinese food craving. Instead of seeing miles and miles of food stalls, I was met with a rowdy crowd following the lion dancers in front of the Spicy Fish Restaurant.
Here are some of the moments I captured [Melbourne, Chinese New Year 2010]:

Buddhist recruiting

The Dragon arrives...

Prepping the firecrackers as the dragon takes a breather...my ears are still ringing...

Dragon Attack! Poor guy just wanted to be friends...

Rearing its ugly head. Help!?

The Chinese New Year Band. Play us something funky guys, those cymbals are killin' me!

Look at that poor man about to be devoured by the dragon >.<

Dragon at the door presenting lettuce leaves (He prefers meat)

What is this strange ear-piercing magic!

Tick Tick Boom! I got hit in the head by firecracker-schrapnel

Where's Wally?

Enhanced library greens

Looking up through the Melbourne Central cone.

One of my favorite blogging places. Come visit me sometime please
