Lunar New Year : Part 3

Normally for the Hokkiens, the 9th day of the Lunar New Year is an exceptional important day. It is called the Ti-Kong day where most will buy sticks of sugar canes for the offering altars. This year, without my SIL and her family, everything has been cut down… so less elaborate. MIL just do simple praying and burnt some paper money…

PiggyBeng took the next day off as he wanted to let Darrius enjoy the mass fireworks around our neighbourhood as well as our drive to KL the next day. We drove out around 8pm+ but we hardly caught any firework display. According to my FIL, there were some street parades in the city but we did not drive there.

At around 11pm+, we started to hear all the noises from fireworks. I’ve already prepared Darrius for his sleep but how can he sleep with all those noises right? So, instead of going out of the house, we get quite good view from one of the room upstairs!

Darrius actually stood for almost 45 minutes waiting and watching the fireworks patiently!  He did not even make any noises when there were non-stop of firework displays. After watching for so long, he still refused to go to sleep.
