Hopefully in year 2016 I will get the prosperity blessing by the 'Choi San Ye', I am prosper enough at the tummy area lol |
This year there wasn't long session lion dance performance like previous year but I do like the refreshing and new idea of the drum performance by local arts group ‘Orang Orang’ Drum Theatre. Weather was pretty hot so I am glad that they did the 'lousang' session inside the mall. As an avid photographer, I love capturing the festive moments until I thought it was okay to leave my big-size goodies bag under the chair. Little did I know that it went disappear when I come back for it after the 'lousang'... Felt sorry that I lost the nicely wrapped gifts by Pavilion KL but really appreciate Abigail and the team for giving me a replacement. Note to self, 'Don't simply place your belonging especially in a public area'!
So what do you think about Pavilion this year's CNY decoration?? Is it better when compared to last year?? Do you think this year CNY has better/lesser festive feel?? I personally think that we all need to 'ikat perut' more this year due to the currency drop and higher living cost especially if you travel oversea frequently yo. Feel free to let me know by leaving a comment =)
