As everyone has stopped eating, i still continue "attacking the belt".

Shopping Zone
Back on the street level, we head on to one of their shopping lanes where it never seems to end, there is so much to eat & shop which may be a paradise to most people.
"This place is full of crabs"
"Back in Singapore, people queue for donuts, while here they queue for takoyaki"

Brrrrr.....cold winds ain't fun!
And on roof top of this shopping mall is a garden where i first experienced cold winds even with the amount of sunlight shone on me. I've already "wrapped" myself up and can still feel the coldness. My camera feels somewhat like holding a block of ice.
