JB Singapore 2017 - Day Four

we had only one thing on our itinerary on our last day of the long weekend - do nothing! we were really tired from the full day the day before and were not even up for going for breakfast that morning. the boys managed to negotiate for some swim time before we checked out so we asked them to only have light breakfast. not that its difficult since they are not big eaters anyway.

the boys went down for a swim slightly after breakfast, while i stayed on in the room to pack and to let amani continue her morning nap. we went down about an hour after that and let everyone play in the water until midday. we went up, got ready, packed all the remaining clothes and checked out after zohor.

we had lunch at sedap corner as we really like the place. this time around we had sweet and sour, roti jala, nasi lemak sambal sotong and many, many kuih that we didn't get to order when we came by for dinner. we planned to make a quick stop at JPO on the way back but everyone was out like a light so we scraped that idea and drove straight home.

on the drive home, hubby asked to change drivers as he was feeling sleepy. we stopped by one of the rest areas for a quick stop to wash his face and stretch his legs and he came back feeling a bit refreshed. out of nowhere we just decided to drive to melaka for tea. hmm...that was random. we key-ed in kuih keria haji jalil and waze showed us that it would take about 50 minutes (20 minutes to ayer keroh exit and 30 minutes from the exit to the actual shop). so we said...ok, let's go.

we got to the shop after 6pm, hoping it was still open. and hoping super hard the queue was manageable. alhamdulillah, it was open and alhamdulillah, there was absolutely no queue. we were the second car there and was the second in line and got our hot and fresh from the pan kuihs within 3 minutes. seriously, its worth the viral, its full of sweet potato and sweet and just yummy. i'm drolling just thinking about the kuih now.

we drove on to melaka town for look for light dinner. we parked right on jonker street and looked left and right for a good place to eat. the boys asked for a trishaw ride and we gave in, thinking we'd find some place to eat along the way. the ride stopped at a famosa for 5 minutes giving us some time to walk around the area and it took us back to jonker street after that.

i guess we were full and tired and sleepy, and couldn't find a good place to eat so we just stopped at a cafe on the street, very near our parked car. we had snacks and cold drinks and listened to some music before amani started making music of her own. it was a sign for us to start making our way home, so we left and got to the car and spent the next 2 hours on the road, looking forward to seeing our home sweet home.
