Hey, Malacca!

We had something different for Chinese New Year this year - a night stay at Malacca (two hours away from Kuala Lumpur) 13/2/13 - 14/2/13

Two hours car ride and we arrived at the historical city. 

Won't be a long travelogue-ish blog post but here are some pictures! 

Pictures taken by my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 and then edited on PS.

On the road music - Lawson's Chapman Square Album. 




Parked our car in the hotel and then we walked out to see some main sights. 



 Fort Stadhuys




The fort's kitty. 

Saint Francis Xavier.

 Had a Corona while waiting for the rain to stop at Jonker Street. 

Trishaw ride, anyone?


Riding on the trishaw, lol! 

 Hotel room with the lounge couch facing the window.

 Room service meal #1 : Fish n' Chips !

 Room service meal #2 : Sandwiches 




We pretty much rubbernecked around, went to Makhota Parade and walked around, take pictures and then left the next day afternoon. A short and sweet trip with the family.
