The last time I went to Malacca was in 2004, when I was 17. Never thought that I would be able to visit Malacca again. And now I’m 21 and blessed with a roommate who hails from Malacca, therefore I got one more chance to score another experience of visiting Malacca.
My 2 days’ stay in Malacca was worth every while. My lovely roommate, Ummu was generous enough to provide free accommodation and tour for me and Mila, also our roommate. We went to places such as Mini Malaysia Park which we spent about 2 hours covering all the traditional houses there. The place was so big, and we had to walk under the scorching hot sun.
So this entry will cover some of my the 1st day of the trip where we visited the Mini Malaysia Park in the afternoon. Those are the pictures of some of traditional houses. I got so excited when we stumbled upon Kelantan traditional house. Each houses had their state flags as you can see them in pictures below. Oh and we paid RM12 per person for the entry ticket.

Oh now what?
See, I’ve told you. I was oh so excited.
This is Brunei traditional house, if I’m not mistaken. Can’t remember LOL.
Terengganu house.
This should be Cambodia house or Myanmar. Which one? Go figure it out yourself.
This photo had been printed out and was stuck on our room’s door. Haha.
Once again, I’m clueless. Can’t tell you much about this pic. Sorry.
We were in Perak’s house, I suppose.
We went to the Malacca River on the night for some sightseeing. And what I can tell you is that the view was so gorgeous. The place was all covered with blue lights and there was some sort of an amusement park there. There was a Ferris wheel, Malacca Eye which I initially wanted to take a ride on it but there was too many people waiting for their ride. I guess we wouldn’t get our turn to ride on it as it was fairly approaching the midnight already. But we got to ride on Pirate Ship, the bouncy bouncy swinging ship that made me so dizzy and nearly wanted to vomit. Damn.
Ooh.. Feels like in Venice. Haha.
The Pirate Ship. Really took my guts away.
Myself with our lovely host, Ummu Hani.
We also went for a window shopping at Mahkota Parade. Sadly, no pictures were taken. I saw my former school’s bus, Sultan Ismail College which was parked somewhere near the shopping mall. I decided to take some pictures of it but when I ran to get to the bus, it was gone. Sigh. What were the SIC students doing there? I never got a chance to ride on the bus though.
Oh well. That’s all for the first phase. Come back later for Phase 2. Eh, I should say that there are more pictures of this trip in my Flickr. Feel free to view them. Sorry for the late publication due to my laziness to compile those pictures. See you later then.
