Water Dragon’s year is here,
And the scuba divers do their thing –
A Dragon Dance under water
As people watch, clap and sing!
The fiery tail lashes around,
As the deadly fangs lunge for prey
It spins and soars and dives back down
And kids cheer “wā sāi!”

When you would begin to think that the celebrations and preparations for the much awaited Dragon Year have risen to a new level, they do it again! With the year of the Water Dragon arriving on the 23rd of January, they couldn’t have come up with a better celebration.

The divers perform a special under-water Dragon dance with a five-meter long dragon at the Shanghai Ocean Aquarium on 19th January, to welcome the Chinese New Year. With all this before the New Year, it makes me wonder what the main 15 days of the festival would have in store for us.

Whatever it may be, it is sure to be grand and majestic like the magical Dragon! Happy New Year to all.
