We just witnessed a welcome ceremony that was unique, to say the least. Two men in traditional dragon costumes performed a not-so-traditional dance to Michael Jackson music. This mask-changing ceremony is known locally as Bian Lian, and it was a flashy and captivating display of local theater. Then several gorgeous models escorted in Marcel Luske. The Flying Dutchman uttered the magic words, "Shuffle up and deal!" And with that, we're off!
