A friend of mine, James Bell came from Adelaide to visit Malaysia. I knew him in Adelaide. I used to work as a housekeeper at a house in Hutt St where he lived with his mates, Douglas Sweet. Just came to know that Doug used to lectured James at uni where he did his first degree in Queensland. Doug is a Phd holder.
Me and my friend, Natrah took him to Malacca the historical city on a daytrip.
10.00am Leaving Nilai to Malacca.
11.30am Arrived at Dataran Pahlawan. Asked James to have his lunch first while me & Nat went to the mall to collect Nat's winter jacket as she is going to Japan winter festival next year.
12.30pm Visit Stamp museum, Malay & Islam museum and Malacca Sultanate museum. Hoping to visit all the museum nearby, but didn't have much time, plus quite tired of fasting. So we asked James to see A' Farmosa and climbed the hill, while me & Nat went to the nearest surau for prayer and rest.

She even bought us drinks. James loves 'kopi susu', and he really like the beef rendang. Yes, it was the best beef rendang ever!!!
