Shopping for Christmas...NOT!!





Normally, only serious shoppers would go to MidValley on a Saturday afternoon. The jam starts about 1km outside the shopping mall area and you queue to get in for 1/2 an hour. Then as you get into the car park, you jam and start to look for a parking space for another 1/2 hour at least. The jam in the car park is far worse than the jam outside which was at least moving. It's no joke trying to get a parking space. If you happen to be at the spot and a shopper walks by to remove his car within a few minutes of being in a car park, it's as good as winning a lottery ticket. And then you finally get into the shopping mall and there are throngs of people there. There is always a queue at every counter in every shop.

So what did I do on a Saturday afternoon at the peak shopping hours in MidValley? Definitely NOT last minute Christmas shopping. I went through all this trouble just to snap a few pictures. If you ask me if it was worth....well, let's just say I might not do it again next year unless there is another Narnia set-up.
