Started the day early. Had the first breakfast in weeks. Usually I'm only in time for lunch by the time I wake up. Went to Lakrin Interchange to take a bus to Malacca. It only cost RM$14.60 for one person & it takes 3 hours to reach there.

Managed to get one 3-star hotel near the church. Don't like it at all. As usual, it's like a resort-style hotel. I hated this kind of hotel. But I guess the price was reasonable enough. Cost only RM$108 per night, inclusive of 2 breakfast.


Then we went in search of food. I told my parents that I wanted to try the chicken rice balls. So we went to this chain called Famosa. Not exactly nice. Later we found out that theirs is relatively bad as compared to the rest. I guess having chains of restaurants meant quality of food is compromised, just like all the other eateries in Spore.


Then we went to Christ Church Melaka & sightsee for a while. Malacca is really lousy with no attractions nor shops. Argh~

Back at the hotel, it was decided that it's pointless to stay here. Hence we shorten our stay here & decided to embark to Muar the next day.

Visited the various museums & also St Paul's church. Nothing much left but I can see a mentally constructed image of the church in its glorious years.

Another 2 hour journey to Muar. I expected the place to be even worse off but surprisingly, I found the place rather nice. We got ourselves checked into a 4-star hotel & even had a hearty dinner at the roadside stalls. Food was great. Hawker food is still the best!!!

On our way home
