We decided to go to Malaysia after all. We left around 10:00, and quickly made it to the border. We don't have Martin's dependent pass yet (but we do have his passport) and when the Singapore security crossing guard realized this, we were pulled aside. Well, 40 minutes later the finally came to the conclusion he would come back as a tourist.
Over the causeway and then we were in Malaysia.
Then onto the Malaysia crossing. Right away, we felt like we were in a second world country again. There was huge lines but the odd part was you had to fill out a form. Okay, that isn't odd in itself, but I had to leave the car and walk a far distance to get it. The forms were so long it took us the entire time we were in line to fill them out.
There was a detour one in Johor, so I never really figured out where we were on the map but signage was excellent and we found the expressway.
Highway is highway, but this one was lined with palm tree forests, which I've never seen before.
We've turned into the type of tourists we used to mock. We ate at KFC for lunch, are staying at a Marriott and ate hotel food for dinner. Since we didn't arrive at Melaka until 4:00 we haven't done any sightseeing yet.
