Christmas visit to Mines Shopping Mall

Xmas tree decoration Christmas Fri 25/12/09 Mines Shopping Mall 2.30pm

Taking advantage of the holiday and the festivity the three of us, mother, daughter and me decided to visit the Mines Shopping Mall.

With all the buntings and other Christmas decorations being displayed in the mall, the Christmas tree and the wooden themed house beside it at Centre Court were the centre of attraction. The tree was at least 2 storey high, decorated with all kinds of lights and gifts hung on it. I saw many visitors posing for photographs standing beside the tree. Of course I heard that the Christmas decorations at Mega Mall and the Pavillion in Kuala Lumpur were much grander. Nevertheless still a sight to behold.

The mall's waterfront The mall was crowded with shoppers and strollers. Hven't seen such a large crowd since the new management took over the mall. Compared to the time when it was under the old management the mall is much jazzier, brighter, customer friendly and more spacious with many branded names making their appearances. The range and choice of F&B outlets have also increased tremendously.

Our shopping purchases...
Wife: she bought a new frame for her spectacles to replace the worn out one, bought some vitamin supplements and toiletries from Guardian.
Daughter: Upgraded her Sony Ericsson memory card with a scanD 2GB microSD card.
Me: Upgraded my Nokia memory card with a ScanD 2GB microSD card, installed Garmin navigator software in my Nokia, bought a 4 port USB hub, (later to my horror found out that my PC could not detect the device.)

Later ate dinner at the Sushi King restaurant before leaving the premises.
