Bundled Up For Cold Parade
We knew it was going to snow in the afternoon so it was going to be a cold day. The kids had two shirts under their jackets and then Chinese dresses.
Waiting For The Parade To Start
We arrived about 45 minutes before the parade was due to start - no problem getting a seat. The rain started about 10 minutes after the parade did.
God Of Wealth Opening Parade
If you can, try to avoid sitting near the intersections. People coming late will fill in from the intersection so it will get more and more crowded. The middle of the block is better.
Foo Ho Ho Restaurant
Neon is quite hard to photograph well. Given fog or a wet street - maybe. Just straight up - not so easy. (This isn't excellent.)
This restaurant closed (forever) sometime around 2014 or 2015. We did visit once, it was cheap and tasted such.
Dancing Lion
At least these guys had costumes to keep them warm - the "Miss Vancouver" float, the women looked like they would soon succumb to frost bite.
