My long overdue blog post on my Melaka-Muar-JB trip. Nothing interesting about the places, because Melaka and JB are places that I frequently visit.

The main highlights of the trip however:
#1. First time to Muar
#2. First time visiting relatives from dad's side
#3. Quality time with the parents, bro and sis
#4. Spending christmas with the boyf
#5. Food and loads of shopping!

Okayy I did sinfully indulge in Melaka's awesome food. :D And jb's. Hmmm still fine tuning my taste buds to suit the locals. Like how joe put it - acquired taste. Hah. But I am getting used to their wantanmee. :) a step forward already *beams.

As usual, visited A Famosa, Studhuys, A Famosa Water World, Jonker Street, Mahkota Parade, Dataran Pahlawan, Portuguese Settlement. The usuals. Ate chicken rice ball, assam fish, satay celup, durian cendol. The usuals again. But found something that I love uber much! Can be found anywhere but I first had it in Melaka.

Introducing,

*lei cha! or also known as thunder tea!*

I know many of you will cringe at the sight of this bowl of brown rice filled with awesome vegetables. I can actually eat this for every meal like forever! And they give you mint soup to go with it :D

A day trip down muar to visit dad's sis. I've never met relatives from dad's side before. First time ever after 22 years on planet earth. May be because they are in Melaka and Muar. hmmm.

After that trip down to jb to celebrate christmas with the boyf. :) Had a great time with joe, joel and the brother. Played many, many rounds of photo hunt, basketball at the arcade, watched movies, go shopping. :) fun.
