Trip to Malaysia

During our Christmas break I was fortunate to visit Malaysia. It is really not that far from Chiang Mai, Thailand - like going from Rockford, Illinois to New Orleans, Lousiana. We visited Kuala Lumpur (capital); GeorgeTown and Melaka. My favorite city was Melaka. It was formerly known as Malacca and is historically known as part of the spice routes through the Straits of Malacca. The Dutch, Portuguese and then the British held dominance over this country until 1966. This church was built by the Dutch in 1757 and still has an active congregation.
