Darlene is enjoying her pedicure after she had her Vitamin C facial.

Here is Phyllis Rose getting a manicure. Her polish matched her shirt.

Boe had a facial and then had a shampoo and set and a manicure. She looks great.

After all the spa treatments, we headed up to Sunshine Buffet. They were celebrating Chinese New Year. Here is Reba, Kathe & Grace. Notice the tray on the table. Mary brought chocolate covered strawberries that she made and cream puffs. Boy were they good. She also brought the pink roses for the table and then sent one rose home with each of us.

Here is Betty, Darlene & Boe. We were just chatting and hadn't started to eat, except the chocolate covered strawberries. Who could resist them? LOL

At 1:30 the Lion Dance started with some firecrackers and then a man had like a gong type thing that he played for the Lion to dance to. It started out in the lobby and made it's way around the whole restaurant

Here the lion is coming up near us. Lion dance is a form of traditional dance in Chinese culture, in which performers mimic a lion's movements in a lion costume. The lion is often, and wrongly, mistaken as dragon. An easy way to tell the difference is that a lion is operated by two people, while a dragon needs many people. Also, in a lion dance, the performers' faces are covered, since they are inside of the lion. In a dragon dance, the performers can be seen since the dragon is held upon poles. Basic lion dance fundamental movements can be found in most Chinese martial arts.

When the Lion got near Reba, he thought she looked good enough to take a bite of.

Here the lion was eatting from a bucket on the floor. When he stood back up the spit out candies and cookies on the tables.

Here you can see the man who was playing the gong.

Before we left we had a group picture taken. I think we all had a good day.

2011 was a bad year so very few pictures got taken
