It's still Merry Christmas in Tainan

There are still alot of Christmas Decorations up in Tainan. My father, who put up the Christmas Tree afew days before Christmas day and took it down on St Patrick's Day, would be proud. But in Taiwan, I think there are other reasons for the long season rather than just thritiness. The Chinese New Year is coming soon and Taiwan has gone a little crazy on using LEDs. Whereas there are some old traditional(who's tradition?) decorations that seem out of place in the tropical Taiwan.

  But LEDs bring the decorations to new heights

Christmas trees(artifical) can adapt to LEDs.

Even an old government building can be used as a platform. In the boring day:

in the exciting night:

I check to see how long the decorations stay up after the Chinese New Year. I hope Saint Patrick's day does get popular in Taiwan. But everyone likes beer, so who knows?
