The Bun Parade

The Parade was well worth an hour long wait! There were some traditional Chinese elements (dragon dances, drums, music and statues of deities being carried) and some unique to Cheung Chau. The parade features children dressed as living dolls floating above the heads of the crowds. If you look in one of these pictures, you see it is actually a clever combination of rods and wires. They looked beautiful but some seemed a little more put out than others to be standing in a heavy costume in the sunshine.
