River cruise

Tried Melaka river cruise, the cruise went along Melaka river through Dataran Pahlawan, behind links of shops and buildings, Kampung Morton? didn't get it quite right and ended at Pengkalan Rempah?   Well.. another way to look around Melaka.. in a leisurely manner..

 

Wonderland ?

The first time my daughter mentioned about Melaka Wonderland, I thought it is sort of like Disneyland, out of the world theme park.. To my surprise... it is another wet world... water theme park..  Again it is in Malaca.. near crocodile farm and Malaca Zoo...

    
They have attraction such as tornado chaser, kamikaze race, big wave etc..

  

The tornado, you'll go in circle so many times that you might get dizzy before "swallowed" into the center exit... backward or forward.. read more at  http://www.melakawonderland.com.my/?id=7

Rama -rama

Just after the exit at Air Keroh from North South Highway you will not miss the Taman Rama-Rama.. I think it is near the new Hotel Phileo.. if i'm not mistaken.. It is a place where you could enjoy the presence and company of species of butterfly... flying around.. decorated with nice landscape and koi pond. I had the video with butterflies flying around, but I'll just share the still pics here.


Notice the butterflies .... bugs, spiders and the scorpion

Aborigines..

When you visit Malacca dont't miss out to visit the Aborigines Museum.. get to know the history... their etnicity and life style.. Although many of them have become modernised.. there are still a few still living the old way...

Flying Saucers

This was the flying saucers we boarded from the launching pad known as Dataran Pahlawan (transl: warrior square).

When it was ascending the saucers revolved slowly...

and we could see the scenery below... and the pic shows eye-on-Malacca from a distant...

:) it was the revolving Taming Sari Tower.. in Malacca (Taming Sari - the legendary kris of Hang Tuah - the famous warrior during Malacca Sultanate period)

The Cockpit

Guess what and where is the kids are playing ? It is the cockpit alright... but of what? Just look at the roof access hole. It is somehow would require someone to stand up and watch through the roof access hole exactly where the boy is sitting. Whereas the other kid is at the steering wheel manouvring the vehicle. Is it a helicopter?Looks like one.. but not quite... there suppose to be no hole on the roof, and the interior looks crowded for a helicopter.

One clue... the kids are at a musuem... just try to look closer at the exterior painting of the vehicle. You see green, you see somewhat yellow brown, you see grayish black.. so what vehicle has such a color combination ?

There are at the military museum in Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan ... and had the opportunity to play inside an assault tank... The tank still has the canon minus the misile and without engine... still there are many more.. you'd see there... Just from seremban-PD highway.. drive up until you reach the traffic light.. take right turn to teluk kemang etc.. you'll not miss it.. on your left hand side near the post office...

The Bridge

It has been a while w/o any entry... well previous posts have been on other countries. Back to my home country.. just guess the picture at the right >> it is a bridge alright. It is no ordinary bridge... it is connected at a very high altitude. That is why those people looking down and some 're taking photos.

Well let's look at the following picture:

Just look at those tiny landscape down there... So.. it is scenery from Petronas Twin Tower bridge. Had the opportunity went up the bridge and felt its shaky occassion... sometimes felt like it's shaking..
