RE: Chinese Painter Giving Street Blessings Saigon, Vietnam
Great first DTube video!
Did you ask him what the Chinese characters spelt out? Roughly around 10 days until Chinese New Year and Tet.
We shall be doing our first proper DTube video on Tuesday as we have some tasty treats to share!
Thanks :)
Ah, I think this is now my 3-4th video :)
A week today is New Years Day
I think it's our first since we joined or maybe we missed out on videos 1-3.
Thanks for clarifying about Chinese New Year. What a week we have next week Strove Tuesday, Valentine's Day and Chinese New Year. Thinking about it now, we will delay the DTube video to the following week as this coming Tuesday is Pancake Day - in line with Tasty Tuesday's. So, you know what that post will be about.
Look forward to the video :). I found out what he wrote. Translating to Vietnamese its Khai trương hồng phát roughly translate "a successful opening" for your business in the new year.
Ah yes, new businesses especially ones with Chinese belief often give offerings to the temple in order to ensure they have a successful business, but we guess it's not only a one time thing. An offering needs to be made every new year too.
We'll check out those videos too ;)
