📷#WednesdayWalk Super long queue to the buddhist temple to get ang pao | 排队超长去观音堂拿红包😎(by @ace108)

 
It was the 26th day of the first lunar month and the usual thing for me is to visit Kwan Im Tong Hood Cho Temple. Upon arriving in the afternoon, I saw the queue was long.

那是正月二十六，我平常的事情就是去观音堂佛祖庙。 下午到达的时候，发现队伍已经排得挺长了。

🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particularly the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.

🎶让大家继续读的时候，欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首，名为“春天”。

I was wrong. It wasn't not just long, it was super long. We had to go behind the building opposite the temple where there was a carpark to join the queue.

我错了。 不是挺长，而是超长。 我们必须走到寺庙对面的建筑物后面，那里有一个停车场才能加入队列。

It was snaking queue and I couldn't figure out how many turns there were on first look.

队伍蜿蜒曲折，我看了不知道要转多少圈。

We passed the temple but there would still be at least a few more turns.

我们经过了寺庙，但至少还要拐几个弯。

Passed the Indian temple next to it.

路过旁边的印度庙。

Then turned out to an open area.

然后就来到了一片空旷的地方。

Then turned back in again.

然后又转身回去了。

Heading towards the temple again.

再次向寺庙走去。

First passing the Indian temple.

首先路过印度庙。

Then passed the Buddist temple for the second time.

然后第二次路过佛寺。

Went towards the small road.

朝着小路走去。

Just before the road, we had to turn back.

就在上路之前，我们就得回头。

Passed the Buddist temple for the third time.

第三次路过观音堂。

Final turn near the road before starting to go in. Still there was a few more turns before heading inside.

开始进去之前，在路边最后一个转弯。 在进去之前还需要拐几个弯。

After a quick prayer, I got the ang pao I came. Then was only 10 cents inside each but it's more good luck for the day the Goddess of Mercy open the vault.

快速祈祷后，我拿到了红包。 虽然每个里面只有十毛钱，但是在观音菩萨开库的那一天讨个吉利。

Stopped by the Indian temple before going off.

离开前在印度寺庙也上柱香。

After that, went to McDonald's for a seat and a dessert.

之后，去麦当劳找了个座位，吃了一份甜点。
