Today felt as if we were on holiday. We got up after a lie in, had breakfast and took a leisurely stroll around Melaka's historic colonial buildings as well as the Portuguese fort of A Famosa (The Famous),
which overlooks the very beautiful city. We has a daytime jaunt down Jonker Street before getting a surprising send off from the staff at the Majestic who were all brilliant during our stay.
Manaf, our Terendak taxi driver took us to the station and we boarded the 4pm coach to Kuala Lumpur. We were both sorry to leave the Majestic and Melaka and I think Sue really enjoyed coming to the place of her birth.
Moving ever onwards we now ventured North and we will journey Northwards until we get back to Bangkok in three weeks time. We got to the coach station at KL two and a half hours later and had to haul our rucksacks onto the packed monorail carriages (only two carriages per train) before arriving at the Renaissance Hotel. The staff generously upgraded us to the 'Lifestyle lounge' on the 24th and highest floor with a fantastic view of the Petronas Towers. We went out for street food in Jalan Alor (why is it not pedestrianised), then returned to our room to take the picture below.
