Lucky Dragon Straws

I was in a photo shop the other day and saw these dragons on top of one of the shelves.

These are pretty standard for small Chinese-Thai businesses. The Dragons symbolize success, good fortune, wealth and power. The owners will often dress the mini-shrine up with flowers, as well as food and drink to appease the dragons.

In this case, I thought it was exceptionally considerate of the owners to place two straws in the cups to make it easier for the dragons to drink.


They got my business, so they must be doing something right.
