By a lucky fluke, through a temporary breach in the "
Great Firewall of China," I managed to use
blogger.com to download an account of the traditional Chinese Wedding celebrations for our son and his wife while we were still in Beijing: click

May 15th, Sunday
I append a few more pictures below that record the marvellously colourful experience and the happiness of that day.

Firecrackers announce our arrival at the venue ... |
 |
... and dancing "lions" greet the wedding party |
