> Dance by Guest Performers <. This 1 because too many people surrouded, cant even take the photo, but luckily two of my friend push me up and let me take the photo ^^, that why not very clear, but the dance is just nice! This part should be use my camera to record down instead of taking photo, but my camera low in battery... no choice.



> This is the culture dance part 2, few hundred people gather mid and dance(not only gather mid), selling food and drink there also got alot people, 2nd round we all didnt dance, my friend and I has dance awhile during the culture dance part 1 because that time we at the mid so follow all the people start to dance and enjoy the dance ^^.
