Emak went to check out another organic shop yesterday and she was very pleased because she finally found the organic tofu and organic grapes she has been looking for. This place is at 619H Bukit Timah Road. It looks like a normal grocery shop but they have lots of stuff there! Finally!
At night, Ayah drove us to Kampong Glam as Emak wanted to check out the lights and the bazaar but we were truly disappointed.
The lights were really nothing to wow about but the bazaar was a greater disappointment.

Today, Emak decided to teach me a thing or two about my ancestors and after Ayah came back from work, the whole family went to Chinatown. Believe it or not, Emak actually made me wear a red cheongsam!

The lights were impressive! "This year's street light-up is by far the largest and most extensive. This month-long street light-up will run from 23 September to 15 October and will feature brightly coloured lanterns and impressive decorations based on the legendary Mid-Autumn Festival story of Chang Er, or the Lady of the Moon, who floated to the moon after swallowing her husband's elixir of eternal life. " - extracted from www.singaporesights.com


There she is! The Lady of the Moon.
Ayah forgot my Crocs so I ended up wearing a cheongsam with track shoes but luckily we spotted a pair of ladylike slippers at a shop right next to the parking lot and Emak bought a pair for me.

It was my first time at Chinatown and I really enjoyed walking around. It was an interesting place indeed and of course I requested for a lantern. My parents ended up buying two lanterns for me as I broke the handle of the first one 10 mins after they bought it.
Emak bought me an umbrella too!

After walking around with my lantern for close to half an hour, I felt exhausted and took a break.

Our next stop was Tekka and my, the lights were awesome!

We unanimously voted the Deepavali lights the best!
After all that walking and "light watching", we got so tired we went to get some food at Banana Leaf.
