Imagine walking with the orange slipper. She looked cute though :) Mat Salleh don't mind wearing selipar jepun walking around town kan.
Hotel room pic courtesy of my friend. It looked nice isn't it. This was the new room given to us. It was OK but it sure looked much better in photo. Exactly why so many people can get tricked from pictures in brochures and websites.
Everything were fixed by the technician and the housekeeping staff promptly but the damage has been done. Because there's no phone extension list in the room, we have to resort to calling '0' and it took ages for our calls to be answered. We were offered another room on the next day.
Group of tourist impatient to get moving in the nicely decorated beca. We were tired after walking so far and were thinking about going back to the hotel on beca. The pakcik said RM10 per metre. Huh! No thanks pakcik. The normal rate is RM40 per hour. It's just a short ride to the hotel so walk we will painful feet or no painful feet.
"I take your photo, you take mine"
My office staff also got an earful for choosing this hotel as I was originally promised a different one. Luckily I was not alone as a friend agreed to follow me there. I was there for work. She went sightseeing on her own. At least we can complaint about our predicament with each other. I can't imagine how I would've felt if I were alone.
She might feel differently about agreeing to go with me though. She helped change room when I was still conducting training elsewhere, offered to wear her newly bought orange slipper so I can wear her Scholl sandal because my feet aches after the first day training (when we want to look for dinner in the evening) and massage my feet afterwards. Yup... I'm truly blessed and really, really thankful. Thanks dear.
Anyway, we still think Melaka is worth a visit and we'd be coming again for a real holiday next time. The last time I went there for sightseeing was ages ago. Ages as in.... try primary school. With the boys singing "Isi Atau Kulit" at the back of the bus. Or was that during our school trip to Mimaland? Hmm... good memory is not my strength. But I still remember I lost my newly bought watch at Tanjung Bidara and got scolded by my parents.
