This lion dacne is to interesting. I do agree on how i think it is interesting how they worship this lion and do a dance about it. The colors are neat and the way they can make it work is so cool. Kinda makes me feel like i want to do it!

The lion dance was cool. I can't believe that was two people, it defently didn't look like it. It was also cool how the danced on the top of the poles.

The superstitions were really cool. I would hate to have to clean the house before New Years Eve.
