Going To China Town....



Chinese new year is around the corner again... It's coming too fast for me. I have not even recovered from my Christmas and new year yet and now this....????? I feel so suffocated sometimes.



Visiting China town around this time of the year is almost like DH's and my ritual. We know how it is going to be like and we know that we end up with nothing but feeling tired, but we still go anyway. The kids know what to expect and always prefer staying at home. Good for them!



As usual, parking nearby was a problem so we had to park farther away, which was completely fine, it's good to walk a bit more. As expected, the place was packed and people were jamming up as the evening falls.



China town was well decorated, getting ready for the celebration. They sell the usual Chinese new year goodies and decorations and just about everything else that one could possibly need. You can even find toys, CNY decorations, clothing, pillow cases, table runners, bags, pashmina and tons of other things.



There's a sign board wishing everyone a happy Chinese new year above the Chinatown MRT station.... Nicely done!



DH was ready to have his dinner nearby as we finished browsing the place but we could not find a place that is enticing enough, besides, the whole place was too hectic to have a comfortable dinner that I would like to have. We ended up eating in a restaurant nearby our home. We came home empty handed, but we got many pictures and another memory has been created for just the two of us. How about that? Til another year!
