Chinese Lanterns in St. Louis

The Missouri Botanical Garden is hosting a Lantern Festival with 26 Chinese silk lanterns spread among its garden paths. The sights were even more fantastical in the misty gardens after a thunderstorm.










Two dragons, each about 100 ft long, entirely made of Chinese porcelain plates, cups and bowls, were a show-stopper.
















There was also a demonstration of sand drawing.





Even Toronto got a little sandy nod.
