Wonderful Weekend!

It has been a wonderful weekend!

It started with my brother's convocation on Fri.. Went to SIM early in the morn... His convo session starts at 10am, but we reached there around 8.30, cos if we go too late then there'll be no parking lots... while having breakfast, my cousin and her family came.. yup she's taking the same course as my bro hence they're graduating together... after which, they went into the auditorium, and then i stayed outside and wait for Deary, then we chatted until 11+... had the sumptuous buffet lunch provided, and took lots of photos...

after the photo-taking session, we set off to Malacca! This is the first time we're driving in to Malacca... we usually only went to JB... yup so we made our way thru Causeway, then into North South Highway, and exit correctly to Malacca! we did not lose the way lol... cos got GPS as well as maps that we printed out... but traffic was rather heavy in Malacca.... so we only reached our hotel around 6pm... We booked Hotel Equatorial, it is a really great hotel!!! we actually booked an extra bed, but after viewing the room, we cancelled the extra bed, cos the day bed is enough for me and my sis.. haha so 5 of us stayed in 1 room... after settling down and washed up, we went out, and walked slowly to Jonker Street, passing by the ship statue as well as the famous red church... was really crowded at Jonker street! we bought those snacks as we walked down the street, and we were quite full by the end of the street.. and we still had dinner reservation made at one of the teochew restaurant as recommended by my bro's fren.. so we walked slowly and make our way to the restaurant, and had our dinner.. it was really nice, the fish is really fresh! and the yam paste is great too!! after dinner, we walked to the Muslim street, and walked awhile before heading back to hotel... it was a great day =)

early sat morn, went for a swim with my mum... there's no one at the pool, so we can swim in anyway we want haha... after the swim, mum and dad went for breakfast, while my sis and i went for jacuzzi... after around half an hour of jacuzzi, we went back to bath before heading out for brunch and some shopping... so, toge with my bro and sis, we went to the shopping centre right beside our hotel, and ate A&W! yeah the curly fries and root beer float!!! yummy! then we shopped around, bought some clothes etc... then its back to the hotel to check out.. after checking out, we drove to Jonker street, to look at the afternn shops.. we had late lunch at the famous chicken rice ball shop.. its very crowded, but as review stated, SG chicken rice tastes much better hahha.. but it was a nice experience... after eating, we walked around a while before setting off and head back home... along the way, we decided to go to JB to have seafood dinner.. so we went to Taman garden to eat chilli crab before home...

it was a short trip, but it was nothing but fun! it feels really great to be able to travel with family =) really enjoyed ourselves, and certainly looking forward to the next road trip!
