Melaka International Cruise Terminal may be back!
My wife told me she wants to go on a cruise. I checked just before Covid-19 arrived. The price was okay. The choices were aplenty. Recently, I checked and realised that the choices are not many, prices are high and Malaysia is really not popular for people to go on a cruise. Many times, we…

Yesterday, I logged into booking.com and started researching about some of the places I would like to visit and the availability of hotels.
