Chinese New Year

I went to the Huntington Library & Gardens in San Marino (near Pasadena) today. They were celebrating the Chinese New Year and had lots of special performances and demonstrations throughout the gardens. Besides the puppet show and fan dancers and calligraphy, I think one of the most interesting demos was a man selling candy "lollipops" made out of sugar syrup in crazy fancy designs - dragons, fish, even profiles. The photos below show some of what I saw today. Enjoy.
