Melaka trip 2018 - Part 2

The highlight of the trip to the kids was... The Shore Oceanarium.  We went slowly through as advised by online reviews.  Inside were touch-pools, answer stamps/chops to a questionnaire given at the entrance, a 3D show, various interactive exhibits.  Overall, yes, pretty fun!  Not cheap at RM35 for adults, RM25 for kids.  Good thing JE got vouchers for free kids entrance at school.

SE was hesitant at first at the touch-pools.  Eventually she kept returning to them.  But only played with the sole PINK starfish.  The others were shades of grey, brown or yellow.

This is my favourite starfish coz it's PINK

Give me a kiss, fish!

I discovered a mermaid!

Which one should I catch for dinner?

Getting yucky with an iguana...

Do you think we can eat this?

People can buy fish food for RM10 and feed the fish here

Food was generally good this trip - we had nonya laksa, cendol, pork satay.  And something I'd been wanting to try for a long time... satay celup!  I was quite excited about this.

We can take any stick of food!

Only problem was SE, who cannot take spicy food. The waiter said he could provide a bowl of hot water for her to wash away the sauce. Even then, she had her tongue out in no time and finished her whole bottle of water.  Also MY bottle of water.

Celup celup in the satay sauce

JE: Celup celup...

SE:  Drink drink drink

I'd thought the sauce would pack more punch. It was basically a less-tasty version of satay sauce and there weren't other sauces to dip the food into unlike KL-style "lok-lok". Still, this was an enjoyable experience, even for SE.
