    What a great way to generate interest in their BIG full event coming in a few weeks. San Francisco is really one of the premier locations for a full Chinese New Year celebration. Do you know, when I moved to California I lived in the Richmond first. Don’t think I ever stopped by that library though – always SF main as I’d be downtown for work anyway. Great shots as always 🙂
