Shu needed a different environment to think and clear his mind and I was missing the snakes so he decided to take us on a quick overnight trip to Malacca. There's my favourite Butterfly and Reptile Sanctuary to see snakes and reptiles. There's loads of museums to visit. Not to forget that ginormous replica of the Portuguese Nau in the middle of Dataran Pahlawan.
Shu's original plan was to stay right in the middle of town so that we can check in to the hotel and then walk around. Turns out the hotel he originally booked did not have a connecting room so we switched hotels. It was slightly away from the town center but I kinda like it that way.
We parked at the mall area since there was a valet parking service. Everything was just walking distance from there. He told the kids that everyone HAD to walk coz we were going up the St. Paul's Hill. They had no clue what was happening but everyone bucked up and followed through. It was great!
We checked in to Double Tree by Hilton Melaka for the night..........
The next day, we decided to check out early so that we can go explore a little more. Shu wanted to go to the beach in Kelebang. We found horses...........and coffee!
It was a short trip but it was a good trip. We did what we wanted to do. Explored. I would probably return to visit the other museums I didn't get to visit but at least I got to see them baby red-tailed green rat snakes who were born in October!!!! OMG! THEY WERE SO CUTE!!!!!!
