Route with pics
Picasa Album
Melaka to Muar, just 50km so we planned a more "scenic" route zigzagging around the Hw5. This plan worked fine until at some point the road disappeared into mangrove forest...oeps, google maps has some wrong info there...Luckily the detour wasn't too much, the total for today would not spiral out of control due to it (thats why we planned this today), but it left us riding the good old Hw5 again :-)
Made it to Muar easily, biked around town quickly looking around for hotel signs & settled with the first one we checked out. Hotel Leewa, its in the lonely planet, its the "best" cheap you can have in town it seems. The chinese owner told us he had bike tourers in all the time, just this morning a japanese guy checked out, day before an american woman...popular that biking it seams? Where are they, we haven't met 1 in malaysia yet...
Walked to local riverside park, read our books, ate (yet another) nasi. Prepared the rest of the trip down to Singapore. Searching for dinner in the pouring rain (monsoon style) made us go for the first thing we came along...not the best choice. "Taste the real Nyonya food"..well if that's real, its real crap. Their veggie mix smells & tastes like a donkeys-arse with a sweat gland problem (we (meaning Ardan!) presume thats how a donkey arse sweat gland issue would be). Luckily we had some other dishes to fill us up.
