Xin De Yi Nian You Lai Le!

Translated: A new year is coming again!
Yep. Chinese New Year is just round the corner. Here's a pic of Chinatown with the roads all decorated. Not only is the Chinatown area full of shops selling new year goods, so are the neighbourhood shops near my place. In the last week, the shops have more than doubled in size by putting up tents in front of their original shop space. Talk about property boom!

Back to Chinatown. I've not really walked around the old shophouses. But the roads are already closed off and the roadside stalls are already setup. I only passed through to get to the other side. Had a difficult time walking through though. Because of the recent rainy weather, the stalls have put up covers in between opposite stalls. But the covers are too low and I've to stoop down most of the time. Hope they've removed the covers now.
