KUNG HEI FAT CHOI
To give you a sign of life, I will post a small series about Chinese New Year in Binondo, Manila. You can see my last year's series about Chinese New Year here.
2007 is the year of the fire pig/boar. A year of goodwill to all. An excellent climate for business and industry in general will prevail. People will be more free and easy on the whole and the complaisant attitude of the Boar will generate a feeling of abundance. But in spite of the favorable auspices here, like the Boar we will hesitate, waver and undermine our own abilities when opportunity calls.
The Boar's year is one of plenty. La dolce vita is very much advocated and practiced by the sensual Boar. If life is worth living, it mist be lived to the hilt. Such is his motto. The Boar is as lavish with gifts as he is with affection. He takes pride in being chivalrous and extravagant. It would be ill-advised to overspend this year of make sizable investments without thorough investigation. We may also come to regret impulsive acts of generosity made on the spur of the moment.

While shooting in China Town I had the luck to bump into three famous Filipino bloggers and an equally famous streetwalker.
Anton from Our Awesome Planet
Ivan from Ivan About Town
Ivan from Old Manila Walks
Señor Enrique from Wish You Were Here
We had a great time eating all kinds of dumplings! I almost forgot to hit the street to take pictures of the lion and dragon dances.
