Road Trip With Parent In Law

Ah, we are back to the life of just the two of us and work. Parent-in-law and sister-in-law were back to their home already, taking today early morning flight.

Yesterday we took a day off, replacing it with Sunday, by taking my in-law for a road trip to the historical town Melaka and the nearest beach Port Dickson. How time flies, it’s like yesterday only when parent took us for road trip and it’s the other way round now. I’m all grown up eh? *pat shoulder*

We departed at 10.30 am, took 2 hours to reach Melaka. Highlight of the trip is to have the famous chicken rice ball, shop at Jonker Street for antique table lamp though it’s less happening unlike weekend, no crowded stalls like on weekend), and visit the historical buildings esp. the red Stadthuys.

We spent 2 hours only in Melaka and off we went to Port Dickson. All of us never been to Port Dickson, we just relied on the GPS for direction. :P I only heard that the beach is dirty, brownish water unlike Perhentian Island. It took us about 90 minutes to reach there.

I’m loving the scenery on the way to PD. As for the beach, it’s not as dirty as what I have in my mind. It’s 100% better than Pantai Cermin the beach that we have back in my hometown Medan, in terms of cleanliness, water’s color, resorts, etc.

We were just there for sightseeing. Reached home around 6pm something or 7pm. Went to 2 places in 1 day by car, what an achievement for us. :P

    Great pics. It’s good to hear that you are getting along with your in-laws. I’m not that close to my in-laws. I guess travelling with them made your relationship better. I think I better try it out. What’s your view of me, a new wife, taking out my in-laws for a trip..? I guess my next vacation will be with my in-laws for a change. Thanks for sharing these pix. Now I know where my next stop is.. :)
