Saturday's at quarantine the visiting hours are longer (2-6), but the thought of sitting in Darwin's tiny room for 4 hours wasn't exactly appealing. We also had errands to run so we did a little shopping at Mustafa in Little India before going up to quarantine. I was told by the driver who picked me up from the airport that Mustafa was the best place to go to get things for cheap. I was also told by some friends in the office that Mustafa is a CRAZY place and you could get lost in there (actually the wording was more like "always keep track of where the exits are" and "if a fire ever starts while you're there just sit down and prepare to die.") . I was a little nervous to go in there based on the descriptions, but we managed to survive (you can seriously buy everything you need there - the driver said they used to sell cars there too, but not anymore) and found a few things for Darwin. We shared one of them with her to keep her company.
The heat was way too much though and she wasn't interested in her new toy, what she was really into was the air condition.

Hmmm...your description of Mustafa kind of reminded me of Pike Place Market on a busy Saturday afternoon during tourist season or the 42nd Street Times Square Subway platform last week. Pray for cooler temps and frost soon :)
ReplyDeleteWoo! That's great that she had air conditioning! At the hell-hole ---- errr... excuse me, I mean "quarantine facility" great brother Booter and great sister Lucky were at in Korea, there was no AC. Mom said it was extremely unpleasant! She was able to be there from about 9-3 and take them outside to a concrete pen. At least there was some shade there, and a hose to wet them down. Needless to say, Mom was GLAD when the quarantine was up!!!

Oh, poor Darwin! I grew up in a house with no a/c, but now that I've lived with it, I couldn't go back! I hope the time passes quickly!
