Lamma-zine - Photo Gallery - "Boundless Peace & Love" Carnival

"Boundless Love & Peace" Carnival (Jan 23, 2005)

Isn't this just the PERFECT title for an event on "Hippie Island"? Can Lamma EVER get rid of this old cliché if there are still events with such names ("Peace & Love! Groovy, man!") are being organised here? It's happening today, on a sunny & warm (22 degrees Celsius) Sunday afternoon, January 2005, on the Yung Shue Wan football pitch!

But this was actually a very cheerful, multi-racial children's event staged by the local branch of the Hans Andersen Club (Tel. 2982 2173, email, website), sponsored by the Home Affairs Bureau. Shaolin Kung Fu demos, ethnic performances, stall games, lucky draw and other fun activities for families.

Got to rush off now to take a few pictures of this Boundless Carnival...

OK, I'm back now! Looking at my pictures it didn't seem all so peaceful! The slogan of the Hans Andersen Club:

"A registered Non-Profit Organisation with a mission to provide practical help and support for the well-being of the children and young people of Hong Kong regardless of race, nationality and religion."

Sounds great! According to parents sending their children to their Lamma Centre, they live up to that wonderful slogan!
