Knock knock. We are entering the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple
Can you imagine being greeted by this guy
This is the main stage.
and this is the main entrance
I'm not to sure what this guy is all about but it would make a great tattoo

Another cool tattoo. This outside the front entrance


I love that this is on the opposite side of the street from the Temple. The Super Star Karaoke Club
The front of the Temple
Over the front door
The real protector our furry flying friends

China town at night
This is the first night of the Hungry Ghost festival. They honor the dead and give offerings to help with their journey through death. This is the hall before the festivities begin.


This is made of paper and will be burned as an offering

Not all made of paper but still very important on the journey, some beer, a fan, hat and a pack of smokes
A house to live in
Some people to party with
some good grub
a fancy table with lots of stuff on it
oh yeah and some cash
what I love about this place is that no matter where you go or what the occasion is
there are always some chicken wings
And then there was the auction, look at all the neet stuff
If you look closely you will notice most of it is booze. How can you go wrong
So these are some of the heavy hitters don't know who they are but thought the tapestries were pretty cool


I like this guy the best
And on to the entertainment. They leave the fist row of chairs empty for the ghost to sit at since they are the guests of honor
The fluffers, uhh, I mean the MC's
And the main show. It was all in Chinese so I have no idea what was going on but it was very loud and smoky
and bright colors. Oh well it was fun.
Bye for now.
