for everyone

Well, my feet were itching to be out having been at home for 3 days so I went for a photo walk with a friend in Chinatown/Indian market which I haven't visited before. Armed with maps and a guide book, we braved the traffic (both human and vehicular) and walked around for 2-3hours.

We were fortunate that today is an auspicious day in the Chinese calendar, so a lot of Buddhist devotees were in the temples to make their offerings and prayers. We also chanced upon a temple with a Chinese Opera. Then off we went to the Indian market for a short visit.

Xie xie ni (thanks a lot) for the company :D

Thanks for your company on Sunday Irene, I had a great time. Really like your pictures, especially of the Chinese Opera singers.

Thanks Gavin :D...I'll be back to explore more, but near to Chinese New Year so I can see how they celebrate it.

We gave the cake to the tuk tuk driver...
