when we're not in the big city

I took the kiddos to my sis' place in the historical city during the long weekend.

After my getaway with my gfs, I decided to have some quality time with them...
My sis' place is not anywhere near Bandar Melaka... we are required to drive, more or less, an hour to actually get into the city. Her home is at a small township, away from the buzzing tourist spot, A Famosa!
Whenever we are there, we will definitely hop into small emporiums,
that will surely hype up our 'shopping' spirit!
Small emporiums such as "Pasaraya Ku", "Ten Ten", "Family Store" and alike...
where things are insanely cheap!!!
Not just that...
We will get to get together and enjoy a bowl of cooling cendol or ABC
(read: air batu campur)
at the most ridiculous cheap price!


We will get to roam the pasar malam,
looking at, or rather, buying almost all food and drinks that are being sold there,
and still pay a small sum of price!
We (read: neither me nor Mr. Hubby) will get to enjoy splish splash of water by the porch,
without having a care in the world that the neighbours are actually watching!
