Day 3 - Chinese new year










Place : Jonker street, Melaka
Date : 9/2/2008

Early in the morning, after having breakfast , we depart from PD to Melaka using the old kampung road (a silly mistake,i thinking Melaka is just next to Melaka cos the map show that). Unfortunately, we took about two hours plus to reach Melaka town including time to enquiry for the right direction & wrong direction that we go.I get to know that "orang kampung" is really more kind and friendly than people in town. They are willing to show you the direction by leading you behind them.Undeniable that criminal cases geting more serious in town, thats why they are actually protecting themself by did not get too close with stranger.

About eleven plus , we reach jonker street and having our first meal,famous chicken rice ball & menthol herbal jelly.Every chicken rice shop almost full with local & foreign tourists, we manage to find a table and having our lunch. After that, we hang around jonker street and found out another famous & delicious dessert. Baba mango ice kacang is yummy but baba durian ice kacang super yummylicious, feel so good especially during this hot weather.

Due to the hot weather, we did't hang out A Famosa because we already visit it before. Then we make our way to Mahkota parade, nothing special to visit but because it was air-conditioned. Around 4 ++ , we heading back to PD with laziness and tiredness.
