==My Malacca / Muar Trip==

OKay, After like spending FOUR hours yesterday, i finally finished editing the photos!
As you can see... there's like 500++ photos, therefore, i compile many pics into 1. so i'm sorry if you couldnt see the pictures properly due to the size.
Below are some brief updates on what i had done during this Two days - Photos plus Captions!

1) Saturday Morning @ 0515am

We Booked a seven seater cab to fetch us from our home to the meeting place at hougang.
that person spelt my sister's name wrongly! Elaine instead of eileen.

& proud to say that we're EARLY. Only a few of them were there. so we sat down & waited for the rest. There were a total of FOur Buses For our tour-120peeps. & My bus carrys 40 people.

Set off at 615am
and

By 645, we reached the customs at Tuas.

Wao... the CHeck-in thingy is damn slow!
we had to queue up & then insert the passport plus some finger prints scanning... &
by the time all of us were ready... the sun is already up!
& our trip to melaka begins.

After travelling for 30 mins or so... we reached a place... Probably still in Jb

& get down to have our BREAKFAST!

The Breakfast was F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S.


Especially the Fried YAm Balls with some Fillings inside..
Crispy on the outside & nt so dry on the inside

another dish, which was the long /white color thing (i forgot the name) Taste GD too...very SMooth..!
The combi of the sause makes it even better.& there are some prawn-meat alike fillings inside. (:

The third dish is All the DIM SIM.... !

& the last 2 dish were the Fried carrot cakes & Baos! (Curry potatoes / Char siew)
Okay, again i must say that the fried carrot cakes
It looks so fried & Dried..& i dun like FRIED food that much but this 1 is different. when u bite it.. its very soft in the inside. (:
Eat them all with their Chilli sause will be Better!

A picture of our Breakfast!

we headed back to our bus & continued travelling for another 2hours!

Whole lot of Plantations! & i like the blue skies.

opps... whose breast ar?

2hours later, we reached a place call Yong Peng & alighted again for some shopping in a shop call YOYO.
It's a shop which sells all those malaysia's Local FOod...

Guess the people there LOVE TONGKAT ALI alot...
well, if u watched the channel 8, 7pm show... you will Know what's Tongkat ali! hahaha

anyway.. a short explanations on what it was!

"is a flowering plant in the family Simaroubaceae, native to Indonesia and Malaysia.
Eurycoma longifolia Jack (aka, longjack or Tongkat Ali or Pasak Bumi)

Uses: Eurycoma longifolia has become popular for its alleged testosterone-enhancing properties.

It has therefore been included in some herbal supplements for bodybuilders. Historically, South East Asia has utilised the herb for its suggested antimalarial, antipyretic, antiulcer, cytotoxic and aphrodisiac properties.

Some scientific studies suggest that it enhances sexual characteristics and performance in animals

In other studies, fractions of Eurycoma longifolia Jack extract have been shown to induce apoptosis in breast-cancer cells and to be cytotoxic to lung-cancer cells


Hahaha.. anyone interested in getting it????

to prove that i'm nt lying... here are the evident!

1) tongkat ali Cappuccino with ginseng
2)tongkat ali pills/syrup
3) tongkat Ali Slices...


everyone bought alot though it's only our first stop & we gt back the bus again after 45 minutes.
Reached Melaka 1hour plus later, & tthe place was flooded.. Not serious de la.. just certain areas & thus created some traffic jam . The place looks very Quiet... & most of the shophouses & Houses Look Empty... issit becuz its too early???? but how come no people still can have traffic Jam. ?


Look at the Overhead bridge! the thin Layer of steels that they used for their bridge... i think i dun dare to cross it loh... a bit scary lei... as though it will crack & give way if all of us walk upthere.
by 12 plus, we reached a restoran (this is hw they spells it in malaysia, so i will use it here =D) to have our lunch!

Total of 8dishes for each meal EVERYDAY!
which include soup & dessert/fruits.

I Like The Sweet & sour Meat (BAGUS. )
Followed by Soup of the day. haha
some Veggies below & did u see the FISH in the picture?
I think it's the softest vegetarian fish i ever had??

i took some more photos before we leave the hotel for our Muar trip.

we reached muar after 1 and a hlf hour & the program for our day started!

the first stop is the fotang.

the people are very nice n friendly... after some welcoming talks by them,we explore the place & sat down for some snacks that they had prepared for us!

& Its DURIANS, Mangosteens, rambutans, drangonfruits, a glass of soya milk & some fried stuffs.

I was forced to eat durians too! but i must say that the durians are all so fresh & sweet, unlike those in singapore.

& They Keep on RE-filling the durians on our table! & we ate n ate.... -.- abit scary.

two types of durian were served.. sweet ones & bitter 1s... look more greenish...


the Fruits really Made us Very FULL...

the Owner put scarecrow on top of the trees to scare squirrels & monkeys away... initially i thot somebody was up there loh!

& we had dinner again... before gg back to singapore!
this satay is better than the afternoon one... as its more chewy & softer. & I HAD 2 Mango Pudding! cuz i tell my sis that after eating dinner, if u eat dessert.. u will get even more Plump!

at the end of the day... I really had a Bloated tummy!


haha i kept my cammy in the bag after that so no more photos...

OVerall.. though the trip was short but its an enjoyable 1.
168bucks for like 8meals for just 2days & a one night stay at the FIve star hotel is really a great deal . & its nt like the usual trip that fotang organise.. cuz this time all of us were really just eating, shopping & relaxing ourselves.
