Me Likey You Likey Me Bloggie: A 3D2N Trip to Malacca - 17

The last time i had a vacation was probably...*gasp*...my Popular Culture trip to Taman Negara LAST YEAR in May !!! Unless if you wanna count the couple times i slept over at my friend's house during my internship last Nov-Dec. Other than that, i live a lifeless life.

My college friends and i have been talking about going on trips for almost a year now. So far it was all just talk because we have assignments, our timetable clashes, we have someone's birthday to attend to, we don't have a car, and lastly and sadly - we don't have money.

Then FINALLY, one of my high school friend's 21st birthday was coming up and she wanted it to be different so we planned a trip to Malacca. We aren't usually this active or spontaneous but i guess there comes a time when we just have to go for it *I think my AMW lecturer's way of words are getting to me*.

I'm not gonna keep rambling like an old lady,

Enjoy the pictures and get a gist of what we did there for 3 days.

Day 1

Afternoon view of a clear Jonker Street

Jonker Street's main tourist eating spots.

Nyonya Cendol & Nyonya Ice Kacang = RM3 each

OVERRATED !!!

My mamak back in KL makes better cendol and ice kacang.

Baba Nyonya Laksa - RM5

OVERRATED !!!

Doesn't taste as good as last time anymore.

Apple-Peach flavor, only sold in Malacca

Jonker Street getting ready for their night market

For the first time i said i liked asam laksa.

Surprisingly it wasn't oily at all unlike KL's char kueh teow - and CHEAP !!

Lotus
This damn cool looking car made all the other cars looked like trash

Taming Sari Tower

RM20 (RM10 for MyCard holders)

It was so cool.

The tower took us up and spun the room in slow motion and slowly descended.

The Night View was so awesome !!

Day 2

This is the day we got sunburned ^^

Chicken Rice Ball

Dutch fortress with canons facing the river

Sultanate Watermill.

I read that the government doesn't want to waste their money to repair the watermill.

RM3 for the sunken Portuguese ship ' Flor De La Mar' museum (replica)

Christ Church a.k.a major tourist attraction spot.

There's a bazaar right beside the church.

A' Famosa Fort

Inside A'Famosa Fortress

Klebang Beach

The beach had strong winds so we bought a RM20 kite to play.

"Look Ma ! No legs !!"

We stayed to see the sunset

It'll be a waste if you didn't try Nyonya food when you're in Malacca.

Cincalok Omelet

Asam Pedas Fish

I forgot the name of this dish ^^

I do know its chicken wrap

Pongteh Chicken

Three of us spent RM75 for Day 2's dinner.

Day 3
We wanted to try the other Nyonya Restaurant, Ole Sayang - but it opens at 11.30.
So we crossed the busy streets of Melaka Raya 3 times looking for somewhere to eat and ended going to Brother John, its like OldTown, PapaRich, Hailam Kopitiam all that~
