Say, isn’t that Tony? Tony the Tiger? He must have been let go during the layoffs at Kellogg’s.

No! It’s Chinese New Year! They’re having the lion dance parade down here in Chinatown.

Here’s one of the lions. Yes that’s Hello Kitty in his mouth. She’s everywhere, and so darn cute too.

China Doll was there, in all her glory…

And so was this very cute little girl.

This year there was a dragon too. This is the front of the dragon…

I like how they do a parade in Chinatown. Everybody has a good time, even the people at the wrong end of the dragon.
For some other parades, see these posts:

PS: Zoom has posted a video of the lion dance over at Knitnut.net.
