Day 33 - Mooncake Festival
We spent our day shopping at somewhere else - 卓刀泉. We went to this place called 老鼠街. It is all girls' stuffs when we guys are finding guys' stuffs. So we decided to split our ways where we guys went further down to shop.
We found this district which is full of IT stuffs, just like Sim Lim Square in Singapore, but 4-5 times bigger! Sales is practically everywhere. There's Nike and Adidas sales, but there is nothing appealing to me, or the price is almost the same as Singapore.
Did some night shopping with some of the girls at the alleys, which looked like Bugis street! Shoes, accessories, clothes, everything you can find there! We wanted to take a bus back, but took a cab instead as the last bus is gone at 9pm!
Anyways, happy mooncake festival! My room had one mooncake to eat, thanks to Eshlyn!
Reflections
Whenever someone asks where we are from, they will be like "Ohhhh, Singapore~". I think Singapore's name is quite popular here, even the taxi driver know how Singapore's traffic is like from past feedback of tourists. They are also very friendly to us, but always thought that we came from Hong Kong initially. In their eyes, we speak Chinese very well too!
The experience of flagging a cab just now is very funny and interesting. We are walking along the road from one end to the other just to flag a cab. The taxis are either occupied or they don't know the route. I shared the cab with Yoke May and Rebecca.
A vehicle that washes the roads on both sides by spraying water! Cool...
A bus route in the bus, opposite of Singapore's MRT system.
This is one GIGANTIC Pooh!
KFC deliveries on bicycles!
The 3 of us, pathetically waving for taxi! :)
