Across to Fahrenheit

I moved on after doing an initial sweep at taking photos at Pavilion foyer. I crossed the road from the fountain at the Bukit Bintang entrance which naturally took me to Fahrenheit. I thought I might as well have a quick peek.

Nothing fancy, but some cute decor. Animal theme and not just the horses. Neat. And less crowded than Pavilion.

Return to Pavilion

After seeing one of my friend's entry about the decorations at Pavilion, I was suckered in to return. The new additions were hordes of horses - as the coming CNY would be the Year of the Horses.

They had 688 of them at Pavilion. Exactly 688? I didn't actually counted them all.

Visiting Pavilion on a public holiday - today being Maulidur Rasul - was never going to be fun. I got there before noon, straight after my morning ward round, did some quick snaps walked towards Fahrenheit 88 - then drove to Syria Suria KLCC before returning home to get some errands done.

I didn't hang around for too long. By the time I left, the queue coming I to the car park was horrendous. Guess people wanted to get their shopping done before the coming CNY.

As you could see, the hordes were small but many. Two main colours, white and red. The Bukit Bintang entrance by the famous water fountain had the usual trimmings of lantern and sakura. All to good effect.

It soon got crowded that I was getting in the way of those about to have their photos taken. Time to escape...

CNY at Pavilion

It was almost a tradition. At least for me. I would have to check out the decorations at Pavilion every time Chinese New Year festivities came. Who could forget the four-storie dragon adorning the main foyer from a few years back?

This year, being the year of the horse, the celebration was less grand. But as decorations go, it was pretty elaborate at Pavilion.

Since they were still in the process of turning around the Xmas decor, the main foyer were still closed. They seemed to have retained the ride from the Xmas decorations, which made perfect sense actually. They had lantern sprouting down entrance as well as around the famous lotus fountain.

I actually went to Pavilion that afternoon to have a look around. Luckily I brought my camera with me and managed to snap away. Might as well, as I wasn't sure if in could return before the CNY festivities end.

On to Fahrenheit

Right after my stop at Pavilion, I continued my walk towards Fahrenheit. They made some effort for Xmas decorations as well, and they weren't half bad.

Space appeared to be at a premium for them to compare to Pavilion, but they seemed to be putting in a better effort than say, Sungai Wang Plaza.

There were some elves walking around as well, but they appeared to be rushing somewhere. There must've been some show scheduled for later that afternoon.

Great job none the less ...

More Walkies

Just after the ward round last Sunday morning, I set off to Low Yat to get hold of a new cover for my Nexus 7 tablet. The old one was getting rugged and the front film cover needed replacing after almost a year.

It seemed that the Low Yat stopover was not the main highlight but rather the nice weather that afternoon. So, with the new iPhone, I set about getting more snaps.

I thought I was getting the hang of the limitations and was now starting to get better photographs. The nice sunny weather helped as well .....
