One day trip to the historical city

It was an awesome trip ! that kinda sums up everything !

Well a picture speaks a thousand words.. so shall post some and talk less. haha
The trip started off with us gathering at 8.30am, but only made our way at 8.45am cos someone was late. haha.

With Zha Bo's excellent driving, it only took us an hour plus to reach Malacca, that's where all the eating and cam whoring started. For ZhaBo, it was a lot of walking !!

Started off with Granny's wan tan mee,


then to Cheng Hoon Teng temple, the oldest temple in Malaysia.. it has a much newer appearance after the a new coat of paint and some refurbishment.




The weather was so hot that we had to stop for some "leong sui"

More walking and dodol shopping for us, Zha Bo was so obsessed with it, that we did 3 rounds on jonker to get her "pandan dodoi ". Went for a short trishaw ride, from A Famosa to Jonker St. It was everyone's first time and it was a colourful and loud one, as the bikes were equipped with CD players, for you to pump it with your favourite tunes!

After that it was chicken rice balls for everyone ! It's a must-eat in Malacca, and not forgetting the Satay celup, and the goodies from Jonker Street.

After dinner, we dropped Woman beside at Melaka Sentral, we all went down to the bus platform to make sure that she got on the correct bus back to Kluang! Don't want her to be making another diversion.hehe

supposed to head back to KL, but somehow we ended up on Jonker Street again !! This time, i finally get to watch the coconut breaking act !There is this man who performs on Jonker St every Saturday nite, with the level of Qi-gong he practises, he can pierce through the coconut with his index finger. geng-leh? and he sells "tit-ta jau" as well, medicated oil that is. There's actually quite a lot of people buying from him, i think there shud be bout 30bottles sold each nite! and each bottle is RM 10. good money huh? hehe

After the show, we finally head back to the car and drove back to KL. Reached home past midnight, hit the showers and went straight to bed. Sy and I fell asleep in no time..

phew.. what a day..
