We went with Jenny to the Temple of the City God and joined the throngs who came to burn incense for good luck in the coming year. Although many claim to be agnostic, each person held a handful on incense sticks and bowed three times, n w e s, before the various statues and shrines.
Lots of red lanterns inside the smokey Temple proper to celebrate; dragon decor everywhere to welcome the Year of the Dragon. Although it was crowded, people were polite and friendly and in good spirits.
