Day 2
We started the day quite early. By 9am everyone was up. Since Ya'tze, Web and i were the early birds, we took a walk around bukit cina - using our noses and senses for food hunting. After much walking, we got everyone down for breakfast at a corner shop just opposite of the guesthouse. I shared a plate of chee cheong fan and yam cakes with ya'tze. It was delicious and cheap!
After breakfast, we started our walking marathon towards jonker street. Along the way, ya'tze, web and i bought char siew paos. It was yummy too but it would have tasted better, if it had more fats in it rather than lean meat hehe.
Edmund met us at jonker street. We spend the whole morning shopping, in and out, from one shop to another. The 2 nice chaps bared with us the whole time, patiently tagging along. It was burning hot the whole day, but even the sun couldnt stop us. We continued on exploring every corner of jonker street till about 1pm, cause everyone's tummy started growling.
We had nyonya food for lunch, and cendol too. It was good and cheap. I wish i was living in malacca, i would never go broke even after eating so much lolz. After lunch we went for a boat ride along the muddy river. The ride cost us RM10 each. It wasnt worth it, the ride was slow and the tour guide was extremely lame in a funny-sort-of-way. Addition to that, i got a lil river sick. Thankfully my lunch stayed put within my tummy, or it would have been an ugly sight.
When the ride ended, we headed back to jonker street. Since it was scorching hot, we went for a drink in a cafe/bar. Some had ice lemon tea, a few opted for beers and i settled for shandy! It definitely cooled me down. We chilled there for sometime, as a shelter from the burning sun. After hiding away for a period of time, we reluctantly got up from our behinds. Half went back to the guesthouse - exhausted from all the walking, and the other half of us marched on to Tan Kim Hock.
We did a lil more shopping, buying cincaloks and dodols for our family back home. We then had durian cendol there, and Karen started having cravings for satay celup. We thought she was just joking but she wasnt. So after much discussion while having durian cendol, the few of us went for satay celup again! lolz But we ate only a lil, cause we were all saving our stomachs for dinner.
After snacking on durian cendol and satay celup, we got back to freshen up and rest. Around 8 something, we left for jonker street again. We did more shopping and eating, from sotong bakar to pancakes, to dim sum, fruits and then nyonya asam laksa. We ate endlessly throughout the night! We had a lil of everything, i cant list it down cause i cant remember what i had lolz.
Feeling bloated and overly stuffed, Edmund suggested to go visit Alvin who is working as a part-time bartender in a pub somewhere near Mahkota Parade. We hesitated at 1st because it was a lil difficult having to carry our fat bellies around, but Edmund quickly assured us that it was only 15 mins walk away. Guess what?! We got conned! If im not mistaken it took us about 30 mins! It was much further than we had expected.
When we finally got there, i was too tired to even bother about the loud music that was extremely deafening. I got onto a chair and it felt good to be sited after such a long walk! I had a lil of everything - vodka lime, bacardi and jungle juice, but it was all a lil diluted. No wonder the pub was so empty, Alvin must be a lousy bartender haha. We didnt stayed long, because it was late and we still had a long journey home.
By the time we got back, my legs were already half dead. Took a shower and jumped straight into bed with my hair still wet. We did chat a lil that night but ya'tze was kind enough to let me sleep, cause i was dead tired. I think i fell asleep almost instantly.
