14-15 October 2001

14th

Failed on the local buses challenge as the city bus system was too confusing for someone who spoke no Malay and ended up on a government run express bus.

The hotel Eastern Heritage was like a slightly run down mansion with all the walls lined with antique tiles and a plunge pool in the lobby.


15th

Tried and failed to see some museums in town but all were closed except the maritime history centre, which was housed in a ship on the river.  To escape the heat I spent part of the evening examining an old church, which was cooler inside.
