Only have a few mins. They like to limitfree wifi to 20 mins around here and I just wasted most of that booking hotels.

Made the trip from KL to Melaka (malacca). About two hours by bus. KL has a huge new sparkling bus terminal which made things nice and paiNfree.



Malacca is about 600years old. Founded by locals then taken by the Portuguese then he Dutch and finally the English before finally part of Malaysia after independence. The centre is a UNESCO site. Not a whole lot to do. Sme nice ruins at st Paul's church with 400 year old headstones. Chinatown with allies shops was pretty cool. Walked to the mall for an ACbreak andstopped by the 'beach' to have a look across the strait to Indonesia. The beach iscurrently under construction lol was too hot to enjoy anyways although there's actually wind here which is a welcome change!



Almost out of time better post before I lose this more later.

Melacca
Following your adventures. Blog is a minefield of advertising (lol) but appreciated anyway. Cooler here today --19C and overcast. Quite a relief from the hot, humid weather. Keep us informed, all the best, Nan
