February 9, 2008, Spadina - Dundas Street West, Toronto Chinatown, Hong Luck Kung Fu Club and Chinatown Business Improvment Area (BIA) had a Lunar New Year lion dance parade. The event started at 12:00 noon until 5:00 pm. The lion went to every store / business establishment to bless the owner with good luck and wish them prosperity and wishes of a better business for the remaining of the year.
Weather wise, we were bless with a warm day as it was raining in the middle of February winter. The year of the Golden Rat 2008 must be a good year ahead for us too. So with the help of the dignataries from BIA, we awakened 2 lions as well.
Here are some pictures of the lion dance parade.
Enjoy!!!
