It is a second chance to date your Valentine in a week as Thursday February 17, 2011 coincided with the fifteenth day of Chinese New Year of the Rabbit. In the Chinese calendar, it is an auspicious day for the singles to make a wish to marry a good spouse by throwing a orange into the sea off the Esplanade. If you are in Penang, it the time again to go to Georgetown at the Esplanade near the spot where Captain Francis Light landed in Penang, and old British fortress known as Fort Cornwallis and City Council building are located.

There will be live concerts and stalls selling goodies which you may want to bring your family, friends and your love one to join you to have fun and carry on the tradition of throwing some oranges into the sea to wish for a good husband in the year of Rabbit , especially for the single ladies. Single guys, here are your opportunity to survey who is available and who is hot.
For the married couples, save the oranges for yourselves as you cannot throw away what you already found and caught in your hands.
Here are the highlights of the happenings found at the Visit Penang. The Fireworks will be let off there later in the evening. So bring your cameras to shoot the scenery and displays of colorful fireworks.
