Sentimentals

I hope that my bonds with all my friends will be as sweet as the poem and I hope that my friendship with each and every of you will never ends till the end of my life.... A poem by Laura West To begin a new life together does not mean that we must forget the lives that each of us leaves behind; but rather we should remember the differences that bought us here; and keep alive the memories of what you and I are in our pursuit if what we can become together.

The 2nd Cameron Trip

Its me again on my second cameron trip. It was really fun as I was on a free and easy trip. It was freezing cold when I alighted from the bus early in the morning at 7 am. I went straight to the rainbow hotel with Zihui in disappointment that my phone bookings was not registered. I almost fainted ! Luckily the hotel personnel was nice enough to let me have 3 person bedroom shortly at around 10am after a customer checks out of the room. (Yeah! Pay the price of a twin's room but got a triple's one).
After we unpack our lugguages, we went for a nice lunch at Restoran Ferm Nyonya. We happened to meet the bossof the resturant ( Eric) and he gave us a ride to his resturant which specialise in steamboat, it was really nice. ( I was too hungry, forgot to take pictures of the steamboat). This is a picture of the bus station but sadly there is only a few of them.


Shortly after lunch, we managed to find a tour agent in Tanah Rata called C.S Travel & Tours SDN BHD. This is one of the cheapest tour agency but it has really good itinery. We picked the country tour and began our adventure in the cool country side.
Our first stop was the Rose Valley. Cameron Highlands is one of the leading producer of flowers and its main productions is Rose and carnations.



Besides flowers and wonderful scenery, I also took photos with snow white and the nice little cute house found on top of the hill. Look at all the cute statues.


Next we went to the Sam Poh Temple. It was not a fantastic Temple but there stays the Shifu who is very "ling". Then we went to the Butterfly Farm ( eek very scary can touch insects 1). You can even carry the gigantic turtle if you like ^_^



Next we went to blue valley tea farm. We were scheduled to go to Boh Tea but the road was in construction so we went to blue valley instead. If given a chance, it will be great to go for the morning tour and get to see the making of the tea.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Next up we went to the apiary farm and the strawberry farm where we had our delicious strawberry ice cream. You can even pick the strawberries. The apairy farm sells really good and fresh honey and I bought a big bottle back. Beside the strawberry farm, there is a big catus farms which I saw many different species and sizes of catus I never saw before. It was really a ver educational trip.
Cameron's latest highlight is this small time tunnel located near Lok Lim strawberry at 39100 Brinchang. In here, you will be able to see the transformation of the old cameron highlands to now the more developed look. In addition, you will be able to see the owner's display of his very own collections of antiques and different kind of ancient equipment. In here, you will feel like you are walking into a 1970s settings with all the stuffs your grandparents has been through in their days. Its pretty cool!
It was a wonderful trip and Cameron Highlands is the place where you could enjoy the life of living in a countryside. The air is very fresh and the cool breeze brightens up your day. If you all ever feels like going and will like to live near town ( Brinchang), can consider living in Star Regency ( 05-4915133) or Rainbow Hotel (05-4914628). In addition, you could get fresh strawberry from Soon Lee's strawberry farm. There is this nice lady that will pack the freshest strawberries on special request that we want to bring it out to Singapore. If anyone is interested, can always drop me a mail and I will pass the contacts to you. Hope you all can go and check out all I have pin down on my blog on Cameron Highlands.
