Then we visited to the Camera Museum which also located around Georgetown. For the person who like photography, i think this is a good place to gain some knowledge and also the history about the camera. And the best one ... it's free to visit !!! You not even need to pay a dollar for it's entrance fee. And so on the chocolate & coffee museum -- The Chocolate Boutique. It's also free to visit and there got their staffs there to introduce the production of the chocolate for tourist. Beside that, there also got a boutique which sell variaty type of chocolates to the visiter. They got their special products -- durian chocolate and also chilli chocolate there !!!

There's actually a serious case happened after the China House. Our car suddenly get burn on the way we back to hotel. We all actually feel blank when one of my friend said the fornt of out car come out some fire ... At first, we taught she was kidding or joking with us. But the time we saw the fire by ourself ... i actually blanked for 10 seconds first and then jumped out of the car !!! We're so worried that the car will boom !!! And one of our friend still stuck at the car boot and we can't get she out from that. Fortunately, the uncles around quickly take water and help us to put out the fire. But the fire is still burning and can't stop by using water. Suddenly, a indian guy who from the shop opposite us took out his fire extinguisher to help us put out the fire. We're all actually schocked by this already and the last moment before the fire ... we're at the pertol station !!!! Can you image that how serious if we get on the fire inside the petrol station !!!
