Yes, downtown(!)Seoul. Horray, finally we got the first row seat. After one hour, we finally managed to get our own seats in the front row. That made us be able to watch the parade in full circle. Wulan, Melizza, my fellow students and my daughter--Eyra were all so happy to be there.
Seeing the bright look on Freya and her Mom's eyes, one could clearly see that attending such a parade was a like going to a dreamland.
The weather's nice. The show was splendid. What's more: we got the first row.
A lantern that was walking or running too fast...that we could not get a clear shot of it. Blurry, unfocused.
As for this one, the tiger lantern seemed to be alive.
I could not imagine how tiring it must be for them to have walked and at the same time carrying lots of stuffs. But, I guessed they did not even feel the tiredness they might have since it was The Night.
Ahh.....No....another shaky and not that clear..alias blurry picture that I took.
This one was hilarious. Even some taxis did participate in the procession.
Of course, this time around they were not speeding up.
At the end of the parade, with the lantern on our hands we took pictures as the token or proof of our being there.
There were only 3 lanterns just yet.
As we were walking more downward...we would end up having more lanterns that we could have imagined.
The lanterns seemed to be alike, but it turned out that they were intricately + differently stylized and painted.
