Little India/Mustafa Center

My initial plan of hiking the MacRichie Reservoir was halted by the rains so we opted to check out the Mustafa center.  We hopped into a taxi and headed off to the Sim Lin Center.  Figured we would kill two birds with one stone and check out Sim Lim for some electronic deals then head on foot to Mustafa.  Sim Lim proved to be unsuccessful as we were once again confronted with the fact that pricing in Singapore is sickeningly high so our attempts to get a new lens for the camera was halted.  Thankfully the rain stopped so it was a much more pleasurable walk through Little India.  Little India is quite an interesting spot with the blaring Bollywood music and endless gold jewelry stores.  The jewelry I found to be amazing as it was all so intricately done.

Interesting building, which I have
absolutely no clue what was in it, but
had to get a pic

Nate aka "Handlebars"..his idea of blending in

A little video of Little India.. all music for the video is what 

we were hearing on the street

Gold Jewelry

Arriving at the Mustafa Center we were blown away by all the "stuff."  Anything and everything you can think of if it exists in Singapore is in this store.  5 floors worth of stuff that spans 2 buildings.  We did our best to cover the entire store, but I am rather certain we missed a good portion of it.  We did manage to get some pics of the awesomeness.

Inside Mustafa

We couldn't figure out what was in the jars

Of course I would find the candy aisle!

Check out the Good Housekeeping cover

We walked out with a bag of almonds, iron board cover, zip ties, and an html cord.. rather random assortment.  We were trying to get a microwave, but I was shocked to find they only had a selection of 3.  So rather then having to bring the microwave all the way back from there we figured we would just hit up Giant on the way back.  The Mustafa center is right off of the NorthEast line of the MRT which is convenient since that is the one we need to take back to Harbourfront so we figured we would skip the taxi and just jump on the MRT.  Famished we hit up the one place that wouldn't have a line and is always tasty.. McDonalds.  After we filled our bellies we headed to Giant in search of a Microwave.  The selection of microwaves isn't that great but we were able to grab one and jump on the bus.  Today I clearly had to make a trip to the grocery store for popcorn.. yum!
