Chinatown, Kuala Trengganu Pre- CNY Eve -2013

Xin Lian Kuai Ler!!!

First of all, thousand apology for the poor photos quality. Snapped these photos using phone camera. Didn't expect need to use camera so Mamarazzi did not bring out her trusty camera ..**sure Thambee SK will be laughing at this statement**

That night , after Mamarazzi bath me and Papa ajak us go buy some Mandarin Oranges. Thought just pop by the  food court buy and go back to Ah Mah's home. Hence did not bring camera. Just purse and phone. 

 Was at the Food court at Kampung Cina to buy Mandarin Oranges when......

 I saw fireworks on the sky. Prattttt! Poom!!! Kaboom!!!  I wanna go nearer to see.

 Papa found a parking nearby the Chinatown and got down to walk around with us.

There  was a concert going on ...not Psy. Sorry-lah...don't ask the old dinosaur Mamarazzi who were the artists there. Mamarazzi outdated so tarak kenal.

 come on ...faster la....sibuk wanna snap photos...see no more fireworks liao!

 Wow...the place very "meriah"(Festive). 

Most shops were decorate very artistically.If not mistaken , this is an annual event. Every shop will put on decoration and there will be competition on which shop have the most interesting and best decorations.

 Kena Mamarazzi "forced" to pose with the decoration. Which smile is nicer? My PJ nicer or mine?.

 A few shops were giving out plastic full of duku to people.You just need to find a plastic bag. Mamarazzi took one plastic. Kiasu!

It's duku season now. Heard duku was selling in the pasar 10 kg for RM15 only!!!

 Is that real? The Lime Tree looked so real.

 some people were distributing poster and they gave me one...wondering what it meant...can anyone translate for me please...thank you thank you

 Got Batik Painting performance

 

Wow.....is that the word "FOOK"?

Halfway walking bumped into my cousin

 She've got a real life snake with her....I was not afraid  to touch it.

 LOL........like graduation photo pulak

 Hmmm ...if MEcoy and his cousin Blue Dreamer sees this they will sure  be interested to get upclose with these cosplay group

 Nyonya Baba theme

 This Auntie was making something

 Some Ah Peks  Uncles making Kuih Kapit(Love letters). This is how they make it during the old days.

 

A lot of work and tedious coz have to "jaga" the fire so that the love letters won't be "burnt".

It tasted nicer too . Not as thick as made using electric mould.

 Look the same or not? See my mouth...

 The rebuilt Temple

 Another forced pose

 This kid is terror....good at playing Yoyo. The kids were very talented. Can play all sorts of style.

Was syok-syok walking around and snapping photos when Mamarazzi got pushed.  Heard some people shouting called out "LALU! LALU! LALU!" . 

Thought what..look look....it was a VIP arriving. Aiya...next time say la "Minta beri jalan untuk...."(Please make way for ..." ). Sound so rude la "lalu..lalu ...lalu"

 This year, YB MB of KT was there too visiting shops and distributing angpaus.

Then suddenly...Kaboom!!! Yay! Fireworks again!!!

Immediately I grabbed my phone Mamarazzi's old phone and start snapping photos too!

Near the end of the road, Mamarazzi saw God of Fortune. She pushed me to have my photo taken with him but can you see my face there?

I was pretty scared.Is he supposed to have so much facial hair? The ones in TV shows not that "hairy" wor.

Managed to grabbed collect 3 angpau from the MB. 

Quite surprised by the amount. Thought the Angpau would have greeting words only or the most RM2 but....Oh well....more $$ for my bicycle fund.
