Road Trip to Malacca

Dad, younger brother and I had one day road trip up to Malacca yesterday. Dada had to go there to meet some potential partners to build some hotel there (ermm.. something like that), so he decided that we tag along so as not to waste the petrol. A bonding session with my younger brother? I wouldn't miss anything for that.

Sleepy brother and cough-syrup-intoxicated me in the car.

So we head down to JB for some breakfast.

Breakfast alongside drains, with the smell of drains accompanying the food you are eating. That's Malaysia roadside stalls for u.

After breakfast, it was non-stop 2 hours or so drive up to Malacca. I don't know the exact time, but i conked out due to the drowsy effects of my medication.

Check this out. Clouds and mountains!

We finally reached this hotel where Dada did his work, and both of us just hand around. Taking photos with his phone, coz he has this multishot function. So we were both fooling around when we saw this.

Singapore? Singapura? Singapora?? Plam? Palm??

The said plant:

Off to check out the site of the hotel. Lotsa pics taken of the site, but I dun think it's correct/ethical to put it up, so here's some of me and my brother. Haha.

Cool pic of my dad driving. We asked him to impersonate a certain Mr Chou and he obliged. Cute not. Haha.

Off to shop at Makohta Square. Din buy anything except FOOD! Lotsa food. Haha.

Yummy Cinnabons.

We actually bought one box only at first, with only 2 chocolate flavoured ones, coz they were the last ones there. While we were eating the first box, I saw that they brought out a new tray of chocolate flavoured ones. And so we ended up with 30 mini cinnabons. Yummy. Why can't they bring this to Singapore too. Together with Krispy Kreme donuts. Haha.

Dada did one of the most embarrasing things. He tried to buy newspapers from a coffeeshop (something like Ya Kun), thinking it was for sale. But it was actually placed there for the customers to read! Haha.

After shopping (with my brother, and Dad sleeping on the chairs), a 16RM Baskin Robbins Ice Cream and a Sunrise later, we head back to Singapore. Not before stopping over at JB's City Square's roadside stalls for dinner.

I love roadside stalls. Guess the feeling of eating outside - exposed to the elements of nature and ermm.. dirtiness(??) - makes the eating experience better.

Then it was home sweet home, not before filling up the tank. Customs cleared fast. And Dada conked out once he reached home. He drove more than 400km in one day.

And here's the loot for the day. All FOOD!

One last look at the yummy cinnabons.

YUM!
