Year of the Pig Celebrations in Cabramatta

Last photos of the New Year (perhaps) - this time from vibrant Cabramatta. There was entertainment in the middle of the mall (Feedom Square) appropriately compered in Vietnamese, Cantonese and English, and of course lots of lion dancers, firecrackers and people !

More Lunar New Year Photos - Chinatown

Nowadays Singaporeans have to come to Australia to see real street side firecrackers!

Happy Lunar New Year !
