Cameron 2006

Location: Cameron Highlands
Date: 14 October 2006 - 15 October 2006


Yes... I went to Cameron Highlands again... I know it's a bit late to blog about it... Just want to capture some of my memories... And, did I enjoy it? Definitely... Thinking back brings smile to my face... Looking back at the pictures make me laugh... With the independent and democratic party going on... Those in the picture will know what i'm talking about... :P

The trip officially began at BP station near Bandar Tun Razak when we got all our necessaries.. Tidbits, water, etc... It would not be a complete trip if we didn't eat all the way... So, our first stop of the day was at Bidor, a place which is famous for its 'duck leg mee' (direct translation, hahaha!!!!).. Of course, we didn't leave the place empty handed. 'Tiger' Heong Piah, Ciku, Coffee...

Accompanied by Redi Su FM all the way up the hill, i was enjoying the scenery of greens and blues... The tension on the shoulder slowly easing up... A sense of relief... This time, there are more selection of songs compared to last time... But, I hav to admit... I end up like the album after listening to it over and over again...

We actually planned our trip nicely this time... From the bottom to up and down again all the way to Ipoh... Waterfall was our first stop... This year we became playful... I was wet... and the water was COLD!!!! The culprit...


A trip to Cameron without the visit tea plantation will not be a trip at all... Our first tea plantation of the day is the BOH tea plantation. We visited the factory and the person who explained the process to us was the one who did it in previous years too!!! Hahaha... I wonder she recognised us... Then, it was time for us to eat again... Lunch time...

The places that we went after that was basically Bharat Tea Plantation, Lake House (too bad, Keanu Reeves not there), Cactus Valley, pasar malam, Equatorial Hotel... Dinner this time was actually satisfying. We could eat all the vegetables we want. With the cold air / breeze blowing toward us, the tomyam and herbal soup is a welcome... Luckily, i still remember the place...

To continue to make the trip more fun, we kept ourselves happy with more food... A set of steamboat dinner did not stop us from entering Secret Recipe, where our 'dessert' were waiting for us... DO not think cakes were sufficient... To appease our satisfaction packs of hotdogs and marshmallows were specially brought from KL... Corns, carrots, potatoes, strawberries... Thinking of it now makes me hungry too...

The night was spent with tarot cards reading and Superman movie... Did I sleep during this trip? Amazingly, I do although it was only for a few hours til a group of uncles and aunty ... I think i'm improving... So, the next objective at the next trip is to maybe sleep more hours? and at the end, sleep through all the nite....

Sg Palas plantation, our favourite place to enjoy our English Breakfast... It was such a beautiful place. A must go / must visit location in Cameron I think...

Thank you for the good times... Thank you for bringing me there again... Thank you for releasing my stress... Thank you all... I really look forward to go to many places with you all again in the future...

P/S: This would be my favourite picture of the trip... Hahahaha... Enjoy!!!
