Chinatown

The sun is finally out, after a whole week of rain...

Went for driving in the morning. As usual, got a lot of nagging by my instructor.. hehe.. But I must admit that he is quite patient though bit vague in his teaching.. hehe.. I sitll dunno how to approach a bend. (and I am helpless with my steering wheel) heee...

Met Ed for dinner at Chinatown. I finally got to eat at the Chang Cheng Tian Ji Zhou... Hee. We ordered fish porridge, pork porridge and a claypot jian ji. Tasted quite nice.. but a pity I dont really like the fish porridge as they were many small tiny edible bones in it...

We then squeezed our way through the streets of Chinatown. The whole place was very lively and really in the new year mood.. A lot of sample tasting, bargaining, poaching and talking.. I bought 5 stalks of flowers back home.. Haa..actually i am clueless about why I bought 5. Initally I just wanted a stalk then before I realise, the salesgirl was recommending all the other colours that she have.. So I ended up with 5 stalks of different fu gui hua's leaves.. hee.. The amazing part about this flower is that, it is made using fu gui hua's leaves and upon sprinkle with water, the leaves will "bloom" into a flower.. (hee.. But it does not close back so you cannot sprinkle again)

At 8p.m., we met Wen Han to bring him around Chinatown. It was quite an enjoyable trip.. hehe. Oh ya, I drank the coconut juice also... Yummy!!!
