Yesterday, my aunties from KL decided to bring their American relatives to come to Malacca for a tour. MY aunt's car arrived at 10am while the other car (unfortunately spoiled at Seremban) arrived at 2pm. The earlier ones went to Bkt Beruang for their lunch earlier on. The latter ones unfortunately didn't had time for their lunch because they were rushing for time to go around Malacca. So, my dad brought his car to escort the other two cars around Malacca. We parked our car behind the OCBC bank car park and started our Malacca Tour. It was in the 3-4pm, the weather wasn't pleasing at all!!! Hot, hot and VERY HOT!!!! Obviously, the other 3 American Chinese relatives were having a hard time walking under the sun. Our 1st station was the Clock Tower. A very famous tourism spot in Malacca where all the tourists sure will stop by to buy some souvenirs or just take some pictures. Me and my sis even took the opportunity to take some funny snaps!! haha :P Then, our group splitted to two and I was supposed to bring them up the St.Paul's Hill. Then, here is the more exciting part! With a weather like this, nobody in the right mind will want to go up that hill because you not only have to bear with the hot weather, and you also have to climb up the stairs. Plus, the way up the hill is kinda long. Thinking twice, I decided to bring them there, seeing that it is one of the interesting part in Malacca Tourists spots. Sure enough, while on our way there, my poor outstation relatives were actually complaining under their breaths about having to climb up the stairs all the way up there and under the hot sun. As for me, I didn't really took notice of them because believe in 'No pain, no gain'. Anyway, this IS Malacca!!! Hot is our weather!! Besides, St. Paul's Hill IS a nice spot to go to!! Imagine the whole Malacca view is right in front of your eyes when you reach the top!! Doesn't that sounds satisfying??? However, I understand their feeling of Malacca. Sorry folks...this is Malacca...so, BEAR WITH IT OR LEAVE IT!!! At the top, my cute little relatives were having their fun time exploring the old church, watching some Portuguese singers singing, throwing coins into the wishing well (actually more like an empty graveyard; St. Francis used to lay there once). In order to motivate my fellow relatives to walk down the hill faster and more cheerfully, I told them about our newly opened Dataran Pahlawan Shopping Mall at the foot of the hill (I also added about the AC!!). Sure enough, their eyes went sparkling!!! Before going in DP, they stopped by to have some picture sessions at the A'Famosa and some cannons, rocks, iguana!! When we stepped into DP, we felt like stepping into heaven!!!! Those American relatives were showing signs of relief when they felt the cold air. i had to admit, it felt GREAT!!! After that, is SHOPPING time!!! Ladies went shopping, guys went loitering, kids went playing and the Malaccans did nothing....Since, I will be going shopping with my friends sooner or later, I just sat aside and watched over the kids and made sure my outstation relatives don't go lost. Still, at the end of their shopping spree, one of the American boy went missing and we had to search for him for near 30mins!! Phew~~ Thank God he has been found!!! Of course....back to the hot air...more complains...more sweat....we were heading back to our cars... Next station, we brought them to 'Tan Kim Hock'. My mum walked to Italy Bakery to buy them some tarts and 'sao pao'. Wow!!! We ate them heartily!! Finally ( I mean FINALLY!!!), they went to Pt. Kundur. Well, this place I don't have to explain much because I've been coming for camps in the Brother's Bungalow just opposite this beach and I'm quite familiar with it. It was sunset when we arrived. Me and my sis snapped some very nice sunset view at the beach and we were amazed at how beautiful our very own Malacca beach can look when we paid attention to it. After some sand and sea water kicking, we finally went back home (HOME HOME~~~~) We had our departure meal at home and they went back at 9 something at night. I managed to talk to the American guy before he went back to KL...hehe..*wink. Actually they were quite nice people, maybe we didn't had enough time to know more about each other. Their mum is a very elegant lady, her daughter is very fair and pretty while her son looks handsome; my aunt said he looks like Wu Yan Zhu-a Hong Kong actor. It was a very tiring day indeed!!!!
