MELAKA - MALAYA - good tour.

We went with Dave, Joan, Jan and Jim. Lots of stops and very little bus time.

Stopped at a Dutch Square for a photo stop. Full of buildings and monuments from the past. Great little tuk tuks all dressed up with child like ornaments.

Next stop was the new waterway that is like the waterway in San Antonio Texas but not the mexican flair of course. Tons of restaurants and shops unique bridges most built many years ago. It was a delightful 45 minutes and very colorful and they have lots of areas where there are colored lights on panels that will light up at night. At night it would be spectacular. We also saw a large monitor lizard I will post that picture.

Then there various photo stops. In the UNESCO heritage area with the Japanese and Chinese cementaries, a fort, the old Sultans palace and the former British Social building for all the British elite.

Highlight for me was going up the tower that has a huge circle sitting area that goes very high and you circle the view of the city in three full circles. Done a lot of these types of towers what I liked here is that everyone is seated and has a full view. Instead of walking around and trying to see through all the people in the tower.

Pictures will follow I do these in the buses it is faster.
