MY MALACCA TRIP! ^^

Went to Malaysia on Friday
woke up at 5 plus in the morning and took a cab to woodlands checkpoint as my family had arranged it to be there and we will be meeting there as well.
The bus we board there was not the bus that will be driving us to malacca, but instead it drive us to Malacca only!
When all the family member had reached, the bus driver drove us to johor

When we reached johor, the bus that we were supposed to take was already there, waiting for us.
The company was named Formosa Holiday (If i didnt remebered it wrongly)
When in the bus, the tour guide explained to us why we did not take this bus straight to Malacca from Singapore, but we took a Singapore bus to johor and change.
He said that this was a law set by the government, not to let the bus from Malaysia pick up the passenger from Singapore just to let those Singapore company have income to earn
So we must obey them.

We had our breakfast at johor, a open air food court
After we had our breakfast we continue our journey and finally reached Malacca
As it was still very early to check in to our hotel, we went on a tour around Malacca in our coach
the guide introduced temples, church, buildings and even Malay and Chinese cemetery!
It started to rain and so we head to the restaurant to have our lunch
We had our lunch at a nonya restaurant!
The restaurant was quite beautifully decorated!

After our lunch, it was still raining and we went back to our coach.
Meanwhile, my cousin, Cheryl wanted to buy crackers cause' she said it was nice
She took order from individual 6 families and went down to buy it together with her brother, Alvian.
Each packet cost 10RM ( Singapore $5)
When they returned, they carried ONE BIG BOX containing our cracker! O_O
LAUGHS

Next, the tour guide brought us a shopping mall at Malacca and leave us to shop there till 3pm
After shopping, we went back to the coach
It finally stop raining, so Alvian decides to go on a tour in a duck boat!
Its a vehicle that can be drove on land as well as sail on sea that's why it's named duck boat.
We went on a journey on it.

After which, we went back to the coach again and drive us to the hotel to bathe and rest for a little while and meet back at the lobby at 7pm to go to another restaurant for our dinner
Now I tell you, THE HOTEL WAS FABULOUS, FANTASTIC, MARVELOUS, too bad we are going to stay there for a night only..
That's a pity
We went to a Chinese restaurant and the food was quite delicious
We went to a night market after our dinner
It was still drizzling that time.
We went into a shop that sells local products and chendol
After buying, we had a stroll down the market but we still stopped cause' my sister is complaining about the rain -.-

We went back to the shop and i stood in front of it as there was a guy performing there
That guy was promoting his product,he promoted by using a finger, JUST A FINGER, and break a coconut open!
His finger began to get swollen and he applied the product on his finger for about 2-3 minutes, his finger recovered!

After all these activity, we are going to head back to our hotel at around 11pm
My cousin still wanted to go shopping so they alight at the shopping mall, near our hotel, the one i said previously.

We went back to the hotel and bathe in the bath tub! ^^
LOL, seriously, that was my first time!
The toilet floor was so damn cold. it is ridiculously cold!
After a bath, totally refreshed, sat on the bed and watched TV, as well as enjoy that BEAUTIFUL SCENERY from the top (19th storey) down to almost the whole part of Malacca, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!
After jumping crazy around taking photos, i was too worn out and fell asleep

The next morning, the phone rang, it rang 2 times and i wasn't bothered to wake up and pick the call. Until the third time, my mum answered it.
Well, simple, it was the morning call service to wake us up and have our breakfast at the hotel level 2
They even came up to our door step and DING DONG DING DONG DIIINNG DOONNG!
Went down to eat our breakfast and almost everyone was there except for Cheryl( heard she and yi rou slept at 1am because they were watching a cartoon) xD
The breakfast was mouth-watering ( I had no words to describe it!)

After the breakfast, we went back to our hotel to pack our luggage and was ready to check out.
Placed our luggage in the bus and went to a church but I didn't went in
I went to the stores beside it and look around for things and a saw a VERY CUTE bookmark and a Pencil key chain
Bought it and went around taking photos of the buildings and a scenery when we climbed the hill
Ahhh the wind was strong and refreshing!
WOOTS!

After that, we went to ANOTHER restaurant to have our lunch!
After lunch, we went to another place for shopping as well as eating chendol and ice kacang again
When we are done with our shopping, it is time for us to leave Malacca! T___T

We took our coach to yong ping and have our dinner there.
It was around one hour more to reach Singapore
When we reach Singapore, my family alighted at jurong and took taxi home
cause' the coach is going to Toa Payoh and it was not convenient for us
Took our luggage and ALL those things we bought, said BYE BYE and leave

NICE TRIP! yea
LOL, DONE.
