Hello everyone. I'm in Melaka, Malaysia. I checked out some of the museums here and am enjoying the weekend festival they are having here. I'm going to spend a few days here before heading back to KL for the start of my journey back to Boise. Melaka is a small port city in the south. There are quite a bit of tourists from Singapore here. I guess people from Singapore get the month of June off or something. The festival is packed with street vendors and tons of people. It's a great place to get a meal for 3RM (1USD). We're staying at a place called the Sama-Sama Guesthouse, which is great. It is clean and has a cool atrium in the center of the building. There are hammocks!!! It's a nice relaxing place to sit and meet other travelers. Everyone seems to be from a different country there. Some great conversations have been started between us. I hope everyone is doing well.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

Party Time
It sounds like you found the perfect time to drop your bags for a couple of days. Glad to hear you're having fun and meeting lots of new people. I always thought that was the best part of traveling - meeting new people. I can't wait to hear all the stories when you get back. Come visit on the East Coast if you have time later this year.

new job
Hey Pete - I interviewed with the Post Falls School District on Monday and will be a second grade teacher in the fall at Mullan Trail! I am so excited. This is the school where Micah and Charples Daniel will be students when they are in 1-5th grade. So, that also means I won't have this email address. I'll update you when I have a new one - or really mom will probably be quicker at updating you. Have a safe trip back home - Love You! Michelle

Hi, My daughter is on a business trip to Malaysia and I haven't been able to reach her for a few days and it was fun reading your blog. It made me feel closer to her and that she was safe. Thansks! Sara
