Happy Chinese New Year 4706!

Happy Chinese New Year… video of “2008 Chinese New Year Festival opening ceremony ‘Lion dance’  held in Columbus, Ohio.”

…Buddha asked all the animals to meet him on Chinese New Year. When twelve animals showed up he named a year after each animal. People born in the year are supposed to have some of that animal’s personality, this is the year of the rat…

Rats are…

Last year was the year of the Pig, the year before the year of the Dog…

Others Rooster, Tiger, Monkey, Snake, Ox? I’m doing better here than I did when I wrote about this on Discover Columbus but I still can’t remember all of the animals in the Chinese Zodiac.
