Carl W. Cole and Patti Mears
For several days, parades called dragon dances and unicorn dances would spring
up, run a few blocks, and then disappear before we could get to them.
This time, we correctly guessed a turn it would make, dashed a few
blocks sideways, and caught it as it came by.
Often, especially in Cho Lon, we'd see dancers loading up in buses and
trucks or, already loaded up, go driving by. "Dragon Dance", I'd
say and our guide, Tien, would correct "Unicorn Dance". Being
a quick study, next time I'd announce "Unicorn Dance" and he'd reply
"Dragon Dance".
