monday 31 st July
this morning we went on a riverboat cruise of Malaka, was really nice....they had lizzards in the river that were huge, never thought lizzards were that big. the river guide was crazy...he was well funny! then me, matt, amie and janet hired bikes to explore the city...my bum is feeling it now. was a good way to see the city...the traffic bad though so nearly got run over soo many times. we came across a back street where they were cooking meat on a flame...matt wanted to try some so we thought we all would. omg it was the nicest meat i have ever tried!! stoped off at the markets and tried some local fruit, before heading back for a jacuzzi! amie managed to injure herself of the bike.
evening we went out for meal and drinks as a group, we normally eat together. few drinks before x
