Seth's 1st Overseas Trip-Malacca



It was already 12am and we have not really packed our bags. Wah, we already have 3 bags fully filled up, and there's still lots of baby stuff need to bring.

Breast milk pump, sterilizer for milk bottles, extra milks for the journey (have to keep it cold in ice packed), extra diapers etc......

We are really blessed to have a few friends for the trip that will help us carry our bags across the custom.

We are lucky that we have always let Seth sit in the car sit. We brought along his car sit to be attached onto the mini-van we chartered. He was like sitting on his "home ground". For most of the journey, he just slept throughout.



I've been to Malacca a few times, but never been to this place called Jonker Walk. This have always been the place I want to visit everytime we travel to Malacca. But somehow due to a reason or another, didn't make it there.

This is the first few stalls we saw along one end of Jonker St. Look at the steaming Tim Sum... :D Really make us just want to end our dinner there.













We managed to find this shop that is famous for Chendol (a dessert with coconut milk and Gula Malaca, syrup make of coconut too), and Laksa.

Seth wakes up at the shop, and still look a little bit blurr blurr.









This is the Laksa we had! Penang style, Seafood, Chicken, Baba etc...... and all different style comes from different pots, and taste uniquely different too!

The green plates are what they call Goreng (deep fried). I was queuing up and someone in front of me ordered this goreng. I ask him what is goreng? He answered:" It's deep fried stuff, the sauce got the world gourmet award!" Don't need to think already, I ordered 2!





These are the brothers and sisters that went for the trip together.













Family photo!

We seldom have all 3 of us taken photo together, either Jaz or myself are always the photographer. This time round, we have Jenny to be one.

We managed to comes home safely. And we thank God to be with us throughout the whole journey. Seth is very well behaved, no unnecessary tantrums. Lucky!
