i've got hell lots to blog about. im blogging on the 25th, but tracking back to 10th of Feb, the second day of my Malacca trip.

First up, pics from Day 1 at Malacca!
Lunch!
Ball Ball Chicken Rice

So called Hawker Centre where we had dinner.

Entrance to Jonker Walk

Day 2. (Melaka)

Wanted to have bread toast for breakfast, but its was CLOSED, so we headed to another coffeeshop, as they do have bread toast and other varieties of food there. I had Mee Hoon Kuey, sis had Prawn Mee and Grace had bread toast. the food tasted good.

Breakfast.

after breakfast, headed for a hair wash at this styling academy. its only RM5 for long hair, RM2 for short hair. the hair wash was not bad.. but their shampoo is much too strong. they do not blow dry ur hair the way a professional stylist would ( as in how ur hair should be ), the students blow dry in a standard manner, clipping ur hair all over, and place the dryer very close to ur hair.. as in to ensure that every single strand is DRIED.

after the hair wash, headed to Jonker, as we want to try the Chendol, and also sis wanted a massage. 3 of us had Balinese foot massage for RM36 which lasted for 1 hour. the massues are REALLY strong. it hurt a tiny weeny bit, and kinda itchy when it came up to the knee area. i almost kicked her when she's at the knee area, and stopped her after a few times. XD

after massage, headed for Chendol which is yummylicious, and had lunch there. ordered Nyonya Laksa and Assam Laksa. do not really like it as tat particular stall puts TUNA in it. TUNA in laksa! how weird is it?!

Grace & me



Ended the day by going to the Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum. a nice place, everything almost similar to The Little Nyonya's house. they had this peeping hole at the Master Bedroom, whereby the hole is on the ground, right above the place where visitors enters. when someone knocks on the door, u could remove the cover, and look at who ur visitors are, from ur room. the guide told us that if u see unwanted guests, u could pour water through the hole, which will eventually wet the guests. how cool is it?!

went back home, rested, and head out for Nyonya dinner with Grace's parents. Food was nice, but i did not ate alot as there are dishes like fish and veges which i dun eat. After dinner, headed for this river cruise thingy. something similar to our duck tours in SG.

Some pics of the lightings along the boat ride. nice!


Day 3 (Melaka)

Nothing much, took a bus ride back to SG, and went over to Raffles City to get some stuffs with sis. Overall, Melaka trip was great! Enjoyed it thoroughly!
