We had breakfast this morning at Kung's, the sticky rice pancake place. And today is the first day of Tet/Chinese New Year. So just when we were finishing up, a group of kids came by in their dragon costume, accompanied by drums and cymbals. Some of the shopkeepers, including the owners of Kung's, are Vietnamese, and so they tie some money on a string in their doorway, and the 'dragon' comes by and dances around, then 'eats' the money. All very fun.
