Sights of Malacca

The town has an impressive number of tourists around. It's the same kind of crowd you can see in the morning, afternoon or evening. I like the atmosphere of it, everyone feeling relaxed and happy, smiles you can see on their faces... it's carefree.



The beca flers enjoy a good income for cycling the tourists around with a charge of Rm40 an hour. It was stated on a signboard, if you find any quotations any different from that, you can make a complaint to the authorities, and they would do the necessary charges.

Flowers everywhere. It's nice to be greeted by these brightening colors of flowers everywhere.



There's even a windmill here! No need to go to Europe to see one. How nice!



The river wasn't kept in good condition though.





Snakes on a beca! Big one on that too. It's making money by allowing you to hug it and snap a picture with it. No guarantee it won't bite, ok?






Nite time on JOnker Walk. There was this pub along the road, which was playing good music from the 70's and 80's and the ambience was quite good. I was tempted to sit down and order a drink.

Is it the pub which Ritchie Yen and Sammie did on the movie "Momo cha"? If it is, I have been there when I was in Melaka last week during my business trip. THey even took pics of them during shooting exactly the same place they were sitting and hanging it on the wall. THe pub is called "Explorer". Will visit it again, actually, my friend knew the guy who sings there, an old cowboy, if you ask me.

My Friday favorite time of the week

 Long ago, I used to look forward to every Friday 5.30pm. I would rush to prepare dinner and settle all that was needed to be done before 4....
