The Chinese Dragon, dancing down by the docks in Oriental, North Carolina. Following the head is a long train, under which locals walk and support the beams that hold it up. People change places throughout the parade from the audience, so the whole parade is a huge mix of people. It is also considered good luck for the year to touch the Dragon, so the streets are packed (as packed as they can be in little Oriental!)
