After having our lunch, we continued our sightseeing. But we only walked for awhile and it started to rain. I love rain but only the Korean pop sensation "Rain" la not the real rain. Really hate raining season during holidays! We stopped at a Peranakan shop that sell nyonya beaded shoes to wait for rain to stop. And guess what, one shoes around cost RM 200++ though it is not branded. But somewhat it is not surprising at all, it makes sense since all shoes are handmade and it takes about 2 years to complete a shoe(this is what they said). It is so difficult to make as they have to sew each small tiny bead one by one onto the shoe to make a beautiful design, only professionals can do it. Since it is sooooooo damn expensive, we didn't buy anything from there, just standing outside the shop and wait for rain to stop. So pity! haha...but we managed to have fun by playing around and taking photos.
She is hella funny!
Artistic photo taken by my sis.
I personally really enjoy taking photos in Melacca. All photos are beautiful because of the beautiful and historical scenery and background. Especially loving the old historical building in Melacca, really artistic. I really recommend those who love photography to visit Melacca and take some nice photo out there.
We did not do much of sight seeing because of the rain. We went back home straight to rest and take photos..haha...didn't have much rest actually, we still continue taking photos all the time. Till when it's about time for dinner, we started preparing ourself..so excited when talking about food!..everyone busy getting ready for the FOOD!!!!..yummy!.tee hee~~
Before we go for dinner, we stopped by at Melacca Island, an artificial small island somewhere near the place Eye on Malaysia was located. Nothing to see there, just beautiful and breathtaking scenery of the sea. Dad drove around the island, it was kind of eerie because there's no one in the island, only empty shop buildings. I think the island had been abandoned by people for a long time and we just don't know why. So wasted, the government are wasting tax payer money to build artificial island and creating more and more lands from the sea in Melacca. What's wrong with the sea? There are many flat lands in Melacca, many parts of Melacca are not developed yet. The previous artificial island project was a huge failure, do they learn from mistake?

Anyway, we love the scenery here...
And now introducing the FOOD!!
We went to a typical Nyonya Cuisine Restaurant called "Ole Sayang" for dinner. Yes, again Nyonya Food! WE LOVE NYONYA FOOD! Maybe because my dad is half baba..haha..We ordered:
Chap Chae (the mix vegetable)
A must to eat, Chicken Pong Teh. ( fermented bean chicken). This is my fav dish among all nyonya food. Extremely delicious!! Please go eat..you will love it!
Kangkung belacan
Sambal Sotong
Telur Cincalok
Yummy..yummy!
Finished!...nothing left..
After dinner, for the nite activity, we went to Jonker street again. But Jonker Street is completely different at nite. The road was closed for Pasar Malam. The street was crowded with humans with all type of size,shapes and colours..hahahaha....Anyway lots of things to buy there, but i only bought 3 pairs of flower earings (cute earings) for RM 10. I bought for my sweet and lovely housemates (Wei ling, Valerie and Su wen) but it doesn't suit Su wen's short hair so I keep it for my own. Sorry Su Wen! Regret for not buying more things..I kept my pocket too tight that nite, not willing to use much because I spend too much for the month.
fried hot dog.
A lot of uncles and aunties sitting here enjoying karaoke. There was a big stage in front for people to sing. There is a thing there blocking the stage, so you can't see. I'm not sure whether they are professional singers or volunteer singers cuz some sings cuz some sing pretty well but some voice are crooked. But really happy to see those uncles and aunties happily enjoy da show .They were not bothered with the crooked voice.
I was not with my family so unable to take much of photos that nite. I accompanied my hubby. He was busy searching for souvenir for his buddies. He bought lighters with very cool graphics for his friends.( his frens all smoking but not him ya!). As I'm not with my family, so I missed an opportunity to go visit a nyonya hotel called 'Hotel Puri'...wuwuwu.. U can see this hotel in the famous Singapore Drama 'Little Nyonya'. It was one of the shooting place for the drama.
This hotel is the only hotel which has bird nest in it. So cool! The nests are real for sure, there are swallows in it.
Little Nyonya cast..hehe..
kakaka..so hilarious..
Day 2
The next day, we woke up early in the morning to have our breakfast. We had our breakfast at a small wantan mee restaurant but i dislike the mee, too plain. Unlike the wantan mee in KL, this mee here in Melaka is not served with black sause, da mee is still white, a bit of taste, not sure what sause they put (like those hakka mee) and some chilli sause. Anyway, really disappointed with our breakfast, should have go eat Melaka famous Chicken rice ball.
Make up-ing...tee hee~~
At wan tan mee restaurant
After such a lame breakfast, we went to a temple(forgot what its name). This temple has 600++ history but it is still beautiful and well-maintained. Go to temple, of course pray la...god! hope my hubby and I will be together forever!..Plz god, plz bless me to have flying colours result for my final!
