Yes, short weekend getaway to the neighbouring country on school holidays.
How exciting to get stucked in traffic jam during peak period travelling.
Reached the hotel, judging by the usual off-peak estimated timing, we were late by 2 hours.
2 Single beds - soft and hard to choose.
DearBoy and his family members - uncle, aunt, niece, mum, sister
Upon checking into the hotel, we headed out to the centralised tourism area by foot.
Yes, tourism area. Apparently they were promoting tourism hence the performance.
Rickshaw for a ride? Per a wall notice, it's RM 40.00 for one hour, who believes?
The long walk of stairs up the church, which we didn't attempt to try.
Hot hot day and I've reached the official tourist area - the red church.
DearBoy's attempt of an artistic shot by the river.
Thanks to the strong wind, my centre hair parting is made so obvious.
It's funny to see Happy New Year greetings on display in the month of June.
Singaporeans everywhere!
Good hot stuff to buy, anybody?
DearBoy having some traditional ice popsicle to quench his thirst.
Yes, it proves to be effective and his niece is enjoying it totally!

The big menu at its doorstep with a long list of ice cold desserts to try!
A library in the middle of the long stretch of shophouses.
