After our last Ad-hoc meetup, our bro Steven and Tony travelling flame got lit when i mentioned that our MinZ has no problem going up Cameron Highlands.
So we were all talking and was thinking why not do a 2days 1 night or 1day trip to Malacca.
So any suggested dates? Maybe we can organise one in Mid December on a Saturday?
I would highly recommend a 2d1n trip as there will be a pasar malam at Jonker Walk every friday - sunday.
Hotels can range from the very cheap hostels to 5 five hotels but my personal preference is a place called Phoenix Inn which cost about $50 a night and free valet parking + its located just across the street from the shopping centre.
Hotel booking will be on your own.
But do take care of the belonging there though, my gf dropped her handphone there and i feel that the staff were the ones who picked up and didn't return.
Rough idea for the trip
Day 1
7am - Meet at Esso (now Petron) petrol station after 2nd Link Customs
7.30am - Leave for Malacca
8.30am - Small rest at Pagoh for Toilet break/Breakfast
10am ~ 1030am reach Malacca, park car and drop luggage at Hotel before shopping/sightseeing
2pm ~ 3pm - Check-in and rest / continue shopping at Jusco Malacca
5pm~ 6pm - Dinner and Pasar Malam walk
8pm~ 10pm - Head back to rest
Day 2
Free and easy till 12pm
12pm - Have lunch before departing for JB
3 - 3.30pm - Reach JB for last min shopping/ workshop visit etc
4 - 5pm - Pump petrol and Wash car before joining the "Jam" back to Singapore.
Interested parties do let us know by replying in this thread for suggestions of dates or questions.
Thank you and lets all hope to make this trip happen.
