The perfect holiday.

Everyone in the world always busy with their work, but they must get some rest like go holiday with their family. My parents busy with their work but them always have time for my family and me. They always bring me and my family go holiday for release our tension and strong our relationship. My perfect holiday when I went to Malacca, I am sure many people will thinks why Malacca, it was a bored place because it full with history. Remember, we must think positive without history we will not live happy like now.
I went to Malacca a year ago. We went there early in the morning by my father’s car. First place that I visited was A Famosa, a place that full with history. Many foreigner and local visited A Famosa maybe they want to know about one of the colonisation of Tanah Melayu. A Famosa was located at Bandar Hilir, Malacca. A Famosa was built as a fortress for Portuguese when a war. Once upon a time, A Famosa was a big fortress but now A Famosa only has an archway. A Famosa also have an accommodation for them to get some rest. After visited A Famosa, my father took us to another historical place like Perigi Hang Tuah who was our warrior.
After we visited A Famosa, we went to the beach. Malacca also has a beautiful beach for us to swim. Tanjung Bidara was the one of a beautiful beach in Malacca. I am so happy went there because I love swim. I help my mother prepared a lunch for us. My mother cooked various kind of food for lunch. After ate, my family and I went to swim. My brother rented a big buoy for my sister because she did not know how to swim. Many lifeguards were watching us because to make sure that did not have people drowned. After tired swimming, I sat at the sand and built a big beautiful sandcastle. My brother was so naughty because he hit my sandcastle using a ball. I am so sad but not for a long time because my brother treated me a delicious chocolate ice cream.
Malacca was also a place for the animal got a protection like Malacca Zoo, Taman Buaya and Taman Rama-Rama. My sister very loves with animal so my father took us to Malacca Zoo. The price was so cheap so everyone can come here. I saw many types of animal in here including a tiger and a lion. I saw a very big but cute brown bear and another species of bear. After visited Malacca Zoo, we went to Taman Buaya and Taman Rama-Rama. I saw many types of crocodile from all countries at Taman Buaya. I also bought a cute crocodile doll for my best friend because she loves animal especially crocodile. At Taman Rama-Rama, I saw many types of beautiful butterflies. I also learned how the caterpillar be a beautiful butterfly. For the general knowledge, butterflies can not life for a long time.
Last place that we visited was Bandar Hilir, a historical town at Malacca. We went there for shopping to make our holiday more perfect. We also went to Mahkota Parade, a big popular hypermarket in Malacca. We also bought some souvenirs for our relatives, my mother bought many ‘cencaluk’ and ‘belacan’ which was a traditional food in Malacca for our neighbours. I bought a big ‘congkak’ which was a traditional game of Malay. My father took us to see the Malacca tree which was the place where the place Malacca got it name from Parameswara.
After visited Bandar Hilir, my father took us have a dinner at a seafood restaurant. After dinner we back home. Although we were very tired, we felt very happy and satisfied with our holiday. This is a story about my perfect holiday, I just hope I will go Malacca again but with all my friends and learned to never forget about our history. I always remember what George Santayana say,’ who forget the past, they will repeat again their mistake’.
