Morning...

After weeks of hibernation at home, I pestered mum to bring me along to the morning market in Chinese Street (some called it Little Chinatown in my state)... It has been a long time since I drop by the town at such early hours... Roads were filled with the hustle and bustle of cars... There has been a steady increase in cars and other vehicles here which breaks the dulll pace in the streets...
It was cloudy but bright enough not to give the morning a gloomy shadow... Rows of old wooden houses with their ancient designs are still there, at least along that street... Those houses further down did not survive as they were demolished to give way to newer developments... A pity that those are now mere memories... The swiftlets though are still abundant in the air sweeping up and down to take a good look at what the crowd of two-legged were doing...Most people were out standing in front of their houses...There will be a competition to choose the best decorated shop house in the street...Everyone is plannning hard to become the most outstanding one...
The festive season is around the corner... I got infatuated by the excitement too... Let's hope that it is a nice one this year...^^
