Chinese New Year

We went to Mam's parents' house to celebrate Chinese New Year.

The obligatory red lanterns.

Folding paper money to be offered to the ancestors.

Offerings of food, paper money and paper representations of other goods are set on tables beneath the ancestor portrats.

Offering incense.

Burning the paper money and other paper stuff. (The food will be consumed after the ancestors get their shot at it.)


Even the paper "Gucci" shoes go up in smoke.

The paper money. Notice the name of the bank.
