Aeon Mall, Johor, Malaysia
 We took the marina shuttle this
morning to the local Aeon Mall. Oh My. We froze at
the door as we took in a massive bakery to the left and a huge supermarket to
the right. After months of scruffing about in Indonesia street markets and
avoiding heavily laden scooters, this came as quite a shock.
   Floor
plans – so very glitzy that most people take for granted – we marvelled.
Like children we rode the escalators to the top, where we found the ‘heavy
domestic’ shop. I saw a huge, silent fan and after a demo by the young man the
skippers mitts produced twenty pounds in wing nuts – Ringgits. Then we worked
our way down.
 Cars...............in a shopping
centre.............whoa.
  We found Helen
enjoying a bun and we went to gaze at the chocolate
events.
 Ooooooooooooo.
 Not too sure about the Dandy Randy but
the Dough Vinci was amazing – all coffee flavoured
and creamy.
 One more look in
wonderment at the Mall, then it was time to hit the supermarket whilst
Bear went for local data and a telephone SIM card (the real reason for being
here). I bimbled up and down finding not only silverskin onions (I ran out ages
ago when my six big jars had gone) but also gherkins, what a treat. All done and
back on the bus, home to pack for our three night trip to
SIngapore.
ALL IN ALL WHAT A SURPRISE TO
THE SENSES
HOW
DIFFERENT............... |
