Taken in Melaka (Malacca), Malaysia while taking a scenic boat cruise. The tall ship seen in the photo is actually the Samudera Museum which showcases the history of Melaka. It was built to model the Portuguese ship 'Flor de la Mar'. The ship sank off the Northern coast of Sumatra on its way home containing golds and other treasures after pillaging Melaka in 1511.
