PnS (Compact Camera) vs DSLR ? Well I shall not waste my time on that topic here. A picture of them before heading to Jonker Street. Jin was my other DSLR kaki for that trip.
Yes them again.
Welcome to Jonker Street. err or should I say Jonker Walk ?
The picture above was taken from a famous shop in Jonker Street. I am sure for those who went Melaka, has been to this shop and has taken a picture of that thing also. I'm not too sure whether this shop makes the best cendol in Melaka, but it was one hell of a crowded place. I am a big fan of durian so I ordered the Durian Cendol and the rest ordered Sago Cendol. Emma and Mun was our "so called" food reviewer for this trip.

Picture above is one of the chinese temples around the Jonker Street. Basically, there were a lot of chinese temples around Jonker Street. Most of them have nice architecture but I personally like the one above. They even have a mosque in Jonker Street, below are the pictures of the mosque. We walk A LOT around Jonker Street and everyone was damn exhausted.
We spend almost our whole morning in Jonker Street and its time to move out from there and head to the Red Building a.k.a Stadthuys. We decided to rest here after a long walk in Jonker Street. There, they have this small stall for tourists to take pictures with reptiles but of course, they want the $$ first. They have 2 big snakes which is really really big and a big iguana and if you want, you get to touch it and they will put 1 around your neck just for you to take a picture. I was not allowed to take pictures of the reptiles from far. To do so, I have to even pay for it. Well I guess most of the things in Melaka we have to pay :). Below are pictures of the Red Buildings.
After resting, we walk walk walk and WALK throughout the whole journey. We went to the famous A' Famosa and walk up to St. Paul hill. It was really creepy and it gave me goosebumps just by walking in the area. Maybe because they are very very old buildings.

When walked down, our group split into 2. Emma, Dian and Oliver went back to Jonker Street to have their tea break and Jin, Ezreena, Mun and I decided to keep walking and visit the Istana Kesultanan Melaka. Yes we have to pay for this again! Basically, everything inside was all mannequins, dressed up with those traditional costumes (think Hang Tuah). Below is a picture of the building from outside.
Them again! :)
On the way home, I managed to take a picture of sunset. I ended my journey with this sunset :) You readers must be wondering why I didn't eat Melaka's famous chicken rice ball. Well to be honest, I find that the chicken rice ball is nothing special. All they do is to make the rice into a shape of a ball.
