It's Chinese New Year!

All three grandkids were with us for a Sunday night sleepover, and since Monday and Tuesday are national holidays for Chinese New Year, we took the two girls down to The Pavilion on Monday morning to see all the seasonal decorations -- and also the U.N.-inspired "Buddy Bears" display (decorated polar bear statues from 144 countries) that were positioned just outside the main entrance to The Pavilion on Jalan Bukit Bintang.
The girls posed for pictures beside many of the polar bears, and Gabi had her sketch pad and also spent time sketching -- with the idea of adding color when she got home. The "bear" pictured to the right is obviously the one representing the U.S.A.

After spending lots of time viewing the polar bears, the four of us had lunch at TGIFriday's (Reeve had asked to be dropped off at home before we drove downtown.). - rw
