Goin' to Singapore and Malaysia!

Having my family leave after the Winter Break was definitely tough. ...Talk about a post-holiday slump. (Although, I just felt off rather than sad, which is good I guess!)

It helped a lot to know that another break was coming up in just over 2 weeks... the Tet Holiday Break! We have 10 days off and I'm excited to be tagging along with Sarah and her parents, who will be in from England. ...More Mom-and-Dad Time!  :)

We fly out tomorrow (Sunday) mid-day to Singapore, where we plan to stay for a few days. Then we will take the train up through Malaysia to the Tampin station (click here to view the Seat 61 train schedule)... take a short taxi ride to a nearby town, Malacca (Melaka), for 2 nights... and finally, a two-hour bus ride to Kuala Lumpur.

Malacca is an UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is an old historical port with heritage buildings, great architecture, and ancient landmarks. I've heard great things and am excited to spend a few days here!

Below, you can see our plan of attack on the Google Maps:




So... until I splurge on an iPad... once again there won't be any new posts until after the trip. ...Next time I post, we'll be in the Year of the Dragon!
