I didn't manage to get ticket to Hatyai as all train tickets on Friday night (29 Aug 08) were sold out. Sigh... there goes my adventure trip into the drain... was disappointed... what should I do during this long weekend? I wanted to get out of KL...
Chatted with a colleague. I said might be going to Melaka and she said she wanted to go as well. Go for makan makan trip. Haha, good idea. And my manager would be balik kampung on Sunday, so would try to catch him there.
When I woke up on Sat, 30 Aug, 08, i felt so lethargic. So Sat it was 'homely' day.
Sunday finally came. Was energetic and looking forward to this trip. After 2 hours drive, Melaka, here we are. Manager took us to try the fish ball kuey teow... it was nice, but instead of the famous fish ball, both my colleague and I agreed that the pork ball tastes better. Haha...
And so nice of manager that he actually became the tour guide, drove us here and there visiting the famous Hang Li Poh's Well, St. John's Fort, Tan Kim Hock, Jonker Street, Satay Celup place - Ban Li Siang (Something like that lah) and last but not least, his apartment near the port, which he bought about 20 years ago (very proud statement) :-p. Manager told us that during his University day he used to be the tour guide for his friends as well. Guess our visit brought back good memories of his younger years. hahaha...
My colleague was apparently more excited about the trip than me as well. She has gathered so much information on --- what else as Malaysian? FOOD !!! From the start, she was saying her sister told her where where where can eat this this this, another friend told here where where where can eat that that that... At the end, we were like, WAHHH, do we have the stomach to eat all those delicious food? Hmmm...
At the end when we left Melaka, we were satisfied with the away from KL trip. and we managed to try almost everything in our list except errr, the most famous Chicken Rice Ball (the queue was too long too scary). Once in a while we all need to 'bleed off' pressure from our work and daily life. We need to take a break once in a while to refresh ourselves and be ready to face challenges that lie ahead :-)
Laksamana Cheng Ho --- Perhaps my best buddy in previous life... hahaha...
Hang Li Poh's Well or King's Well

Jonker Street as night falls
Satay Celup place and the crowd it attracts is just unbelievable
The very famous Satay Celup
