Happy Chinese New Year!

The first Sunday after Chinese New Year is when the London China town puts on events to celebrate this most important Chinese festival of the year! This year there is no exception. 

As expected, a big crowd gathered for the fireworks which marks the end of today's celebrations. What surprises me is how the fireworks were lit - by hand?!?! 

To me, seeing the staff running around Leicester Square lighting the fireworks for our amusement was the main entertainment. (No staff was injured during the lighting of fireworks!)
