#1.  A Shifu (reverend) was leading a marching band, as the first team of the parade for “opening the road”.

#2.  This reverend was carrying 2 creatively made lantern in light green and square shaped.

#3.  Little kids have their hair shaved every year during Wesak day to act as little Buddhas.

#4.  This is the team that brought most Buddhism elements to this parade.  The things that they were carrying were heavy, but those are the things that usually appear in Buddha sutra, such as BaoSan (the umbrella), BaoGai, ChuangFan etc..

#5.  The cutest big head girl in the parade.

#6.  Look!!  What was the little girl who carried their team’s banner doing?

#7.  The most cultural team.

#8.  They are in dark clothes, and their square lantern was a big contrast with their clothings.  I suggest them to wear lighter coloured clothes or allocate a car in front of them which should carry a big light shining on them.

#9.  This team stop for quite sometime in front of us while waiting for the traffic lights.

#10.  This team was not moving too.  It was easier for me to take their photo.  Each team had different types of lanterns, this type is the most common lantern.

#11.  A lady was looking into my camera.

#12.  Girls with paper lotus with candle light in the middle.

#13.  Yes, moving again.

#14.  Resting and waiting while the traffic was jammed.

I would be happy if you can tell me that you found yourself in my photos because the chance is not high.  Not everybody in the parade was captured by my camera, and not everyone in the photos above will read my blog, may be the search engine such as google, yahoo bing will bring you to this website.  :D
