We were sad to leave Singapore as we enjoyed our time there. A big thank you to our special hosts, Donald and Judith, who made our stay so great.
On Sunday morning we took a bus from Singapore to our first stop in Malaysia, the historic city of Melaka. The bus ride took about four hours but that included a number of stops for immigration and lunch. We had great seats at the front of the bus (it pays to book early!). I felt like I was the driver. The highways here are excellent and traffic was quite light. We were on a toll road which I understand makes the alternative/free highway a bit more crowded. We are staying at a small boutique hotel in the historic part of town. We walked a couple of blocks with our suitcases from where we were let off by the bus. The streets are quite narrow and there are no sidewalks to speak of. It looks like a great place to stay for our three days in Maleka. I have posted a few photos of the bus trip and our hotel on the 'Malaysia' page. Click play to view the slideshow. Comments are closed.
