It's Chinese New Year and I'm going to have a break this week, although I have included a few photos from the last day at school when we were regaled with the exquisite skills of a local professional dragon dancing troupe. I've also included a shot of the first flush of cherry blossoms on the riverside near our place, a tray of sartorially splendid pineapples as well as a dressed up, plump stone dog in the temple opposite.

We've got this week off work and already it is proving to be extremely relaxing, rejuvenating and just, well, ripper!

See you next week and "xin nian kuai le"! Video here.
