Chinese New Year celebration

Hello, this is shushu. Our owner is feeling much better now so she help me to update our blog a bit. I am going to tell you all a little bit of my CNY celebraton.

For reunion dinner on Wednesday, I was very sad as I got left at home while our owner brought kero back to her hometown. Though she cooked me a very delicious dinner and gave me a big bone to chew before she left, I still feel very sad. I heard that there was a lot of food for reunion dinner (3 tables long) and I wasn't there.

Well, if i was there, I would have beg everyone and I am sure I will get lots of tidbit of the delicious food there. The only consolation I had is that I heard Kero was caged inside the crate during the dinner. He didn't get to taste those food also.

(owner: Kero was very shy when we were at the hometown. Even though I left the travelling crate door wide open, he refused to come out and will only peek from his crate. I think he was a little overwhelmed with the people - i have a huge family there!)

However, I got to visit the hometown for the 1st day of CNY. Yay!
Our owner and miss sister came back from hometown early in the morning to fetch me. We reached the hometown again late morning. There were really a lot of people around so our owner set up a playpen for us and dressed us nicely in CNY costume. Everyone came and look at us. I was very happy with all the attention, while kero is still shy and he keep sticking close to me. Grandma came and gave us a angpow!





By afternoon, the weather was really hot - even with a portable fan blowing at us, we feel so lazy and tired.



Kero even took a long nap. I couldn't take any nap at all coz everytime i wanted to close my eyes, the little cousins will come and look at me. Do they want to play with me? but everytime I invite them (bark!) they will run away again. Hmmmmmm.............. Miss owner said my big size and loud bark scared them away. She then took off our costume coz it was very hot and gave us some ice to cool us down. That was nice!

In the evening, we had a BBQ dinner. I can smell wonderful smell from outside and got very excited.




Miss owner (and the small cousins) gave me lots of sausages to eat - it was very delicious. Some of the cousins were now braver and they even climb inside the playpen to play with me.



I was very happy.


Kero, however, was deemed cute and he was passed from one relative to another who was taking turn to hug him. He doesn't look very pleased though, hehe....



After the BBQ, we travelled back to Ipoh. We all sleep like baby when back. It was very tiring but fun.
