Melaka Trip

We reached the Bandaraya Bersejarah at dusk. Checked-in, 2-rooms service apartment, acceptable for RM245 (inclusive of weekend surcharge) to house 11 of us !! Went out again to buy all the bekas, toilettries and what not. Had pizza at Mahkota Parade and the supermarket Gergasi there was a let down.

At 10pm we went hunting for the location of UiTM City Campus guided by a map written in Arabic !! Oh sungguh la menariks lokasinya. Directly opposite the Hang Tuah Mall. There were some khemah and chairs on the road in front of the registration area. Based on that surveillance info we decided that the kids will stay behind until they gets thing settled. By midday, we're on our way to Tesco. My Spectra had his 1st experience in using its bumper to dent another car's bumper. And the car belongs to my DAD. haha All of us had a laugh seeing the already rusty body flaking and falling. I wish I can buy him a new car but that's impossible for the time being.

We dropped our fragile lil sis at her college and back to hi-way, but what is a trip to Melaka without a stop at any of Air Keroh 'attractions', we decided that Taman Buaya is the lucky one. I went there when I was 14 y.o. So we paid RM 36 in total to go and see some 'lazy boya', for the kids la konon. Once we entered the taman we were greeted with a notice board saying that they are having a major renovation so most of the areas were closed. Cisss cisss bedebah sungguh itu taman buaya.

Another major dissappointment is that, the place haven't changed after 18++ years, dari aku Form 2 sampai skrg dah beranak 3, cenggitu la. The only change is that, the crocs were in sorry state compared to my previous visit. Tapi ada sekor tu duduk sebelah stage, gila besar, umang aaiii...tgk bijik mata dia yg timbul pun aku rasa cam lembik lutut. 3- 4metre la lebih kurang. Then I let the uncles to escort Adan & Hanis on the Jurassic Park train. Adan came out shivering but ecstatic but Along had a nightmare, she was crying like no tomorrow. I had to ask everyone not to tease her because she was genuinely freaking out. Kesiannya my princess.

Forgot to mention, right after we went in, my sis called and asking whether her laptop is in the boot. My dear hubby who join us so that he can have some snoring moment on the bench had to drive back to her college and came back after almost 2 hrs. Kesian ayang...

We drove back to KL via exit Serdang just to be greeted by a normal traffic jam. But still ok compared to exit Sg. Besi.
