Hari Raya in Kuching

On this trip to Kuching we were joined by our foster parents' grandaughter, INA ,to spend the Hari Raya holidays in Kuching. She came with her parents from Bintulu by bus. She's such a cute girl. Loves to do posing and modelling. Here she poses almost naturally. A potential future model in the making.

Signs and Sighs!

Despite the prohibition on trading by the pedestrian mall ( see the yellow signboard in the background), traders have taken a blind eye to the notice. This street was formerly a throughfare for vehicles. But its value as a trading arena has tremendously improved when transformed to a pedestrian mall.

India Street Pedestrian Mall

On the way to the Indian Mosque is this pedestrian mall. Hundreds of small stalls line the street displaying goods,drinks,fruits and many more items.

Fashionable scarves

Is this the latest fashionable scarf? Is it not too gaudy? Or too plain? Hmm...there's so much to choose from. This seems to be reeling in the minds of potential customers to the shop above as they scan the the available choices. You can get a beautiful scarf for RM 15 at the Gambier Street bazaar in Kuching.

New Shopping Experience in Kuching

On this trip, something great happened in Kuching city. There is this new shopping mall ( so far the biggest in Kuching) that was opened to the public. Here's a peep at one of the chic outlets there. This shopping mall called "The Spring" caters for the medium to high end customers who don't mind paying more for quality.
