Returning to Melaka... Again

Took a short break to Melaka. Did the same things over again because there is nothing much to do in Melake. Visited the same old A Famosa, St Paul church, red house & Maritime Museum.



Ate the same chendol, muah chi & laksa. Strolled along Jonker Walk & had drink at San Shu Gong. Very predictable. Anyway a good trip always ends with good movie. Yup.. We watched RIO. Very colourful.


A good guide always tells great story. Heard this story about the cross on the crab shell. St Xavier once sailed in a boat and he met with heavy thunderstorm. He prayed. Unfortunately his favorite rosary & crucifix dropped into sea. Sad.... After a period of time, while walking along the beach he saw a crab carrying his rosary. To his delight, he blessed the crab with the crucifix & that's how the crab got it's remarkable cross on the shell.
