It’s the day before the Merdeka Celebration in Malaysia. Honestly I don’t know a lot about the celebration and it’s significance but today’s programe at the Mines Wellness Hotel educated me on the celebration. I could actually feel the festive spirit of the Malaysians as they look forward to Independence Celebration. I feel the beat of anticipation as we shout Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!

On another positive note, we met the Chairman of Malaysian Tourism, Datuk Dr. Victor Wee. A jovial personality, he actually delivered two songs with the army band. Weeeeeeeee!

That’s enough excitement for the day. Now that wearing all those formality clothes are done, it’s time for more traveling and discovering. We’ll be going to the newly proclaimed UNESCO World Heritage Site Malacca in a few hours. We’ll bring along a bag of Beryl Milk Chocolate we bought this morning along with us. Yum!
