奇蘭尼社區中心今年联合多个不同族裔慶祝中國新年, 有多元文物歌舞表演及豐富午餐. 外面冰天雪地, 駕車或步行都不方便, 却沒有影响参加者的興趣. 中心内喜氣洋洋, 人 人都享受到温暖. 美中不足是回程忽然又下起大雪, 狂風橫掃,雪塊撲面十分難受. 我们乘巴士(三个站)回家.

Sunday Feb 5, 2017. On our way to Killarney Community Center. 二月五日步行往 奇蘭尼社區中心参加中國新年联歡節目.

1/3 of the houses haven’t shovel their part of city sidewalks. 三分之一家庭未鏟雪.

We always say thanks when we saw someone shoveling snows; And when people walk by when we were shoveling snows, most of them smile and said thank you too. 每遇見有人鏟雪,我們都由衷地說声多謝; 我們鏟雪時路过的行人多數也說句謝謝.
