Gala Chinese New Year @ Beijing!

Many fireworks and firecrackers EVERYWHERE!

On the day I arrive in Beijing for a brief stop, I didn't know that it was Chinese New year's Eve!
While I was cooking, suddenly, we heard many firecrackers and saw fireworks and realized it was the day!

Of course, it was fun to be part of festive town, however, on the following day, we almost missed our flight in the very very early morning - of course, no taxi on the empty road!!
