My "Very First" Cameron Highlands Trip on 6-8 Aug 2010 (Final Part)

We were supposed to wake up in early morning because we gotta go to the morning market but i'm royally screwed cause of over exhausted. Since room mate was not awake yet, then i continue to sleep again. zZZ


A no grateful yet annoying alarm sound from my handphone awake my sleep and i was like uRGH~~~~(with my eyes half open) I force myself to get up of bed and wake myself up with some light exercises (shake shake leg) Okay~~~~ woke up !!! Sunday morning ! The weather in the morning was so freezing and the heavy fog was really resemble to the cold climate at the highlands. That was the weather I was hoping for and now it was infront of me... i can feel it !!! (taking a deep deep breath) It was amazing and really refreshing me. G@@d Morning everybody !


I had made egg mayo last nite. It is a sandwich which is the easiest, simple and fastest to make but also nutritious breakfast. Just dug out from fridge and spread onto bread and u can omm nomm nomm... "MmmmmmM taste delicious" : said my colleague, Kevin. Hahahha


After everyone had their breakfast, we preparing for check out.The time we all were busying to fit all our luggage into the car booth. I realize something... Gosh ! Where is my digital camera ??? I try to recall when was the last time i'm using it. My colleague, lay wan and me goin back to the apartment again to check out but it really make me very frustrated :( Duh~~ i LOST my 5 years old digital camera... Well... i was trying to calm down mylsef but my bf was giving me a brainwash (wei... i already full of upset...stop mumbling plsss) Suddenly, while we were going to take group photo before leaving Green Hills Apartment my colleague, Anne was shouting : " Jenny ! Here is your camera !! " The moment i heard Anne found it... I was extremely happy when i saw my camera and quickly ran to her and grab it back. We were hugging each other over the excitement and i heard anne was saying Thanks God! Yeah~~ Thanks God ! Apparently, my digital camera was in her handbag... i think she helped me to keep it yesterday when we were carrying a lots of thing at pasar malam. It was around 10am when we were checked out from Green Hills apartment.

At the fringe of Tanah Rata we passed by Bala's Holiday Chalet then we decided to drop by to check the place out. The road leading up is very narrow. Moreover, there is like limited parking space around. However, Bala's Holiday Chalet is a very charming English style, lotsa greens surrounding it. Very lovely place ! Unfortunately we were warned by the gardener to get into the garden. "Tak boleh masuk..." said the Gardener. I was thinking to ask for more but when i saw his unfriendly face... huh! :( Then with hundred kgs step i slowly get away from there.





We stopped for an hour here and Let Pictures Do ALL the Talking!









It was a a long and terrible traffic jam all the way from Brinchang to Vegetable market nearby Equatorial Hotel... This happen because full of cars parked at the side of the road along the way to Vegetable market. Luckily, thanks god, we were manage to get a parking so we were able to purchase some fresh strawberry to bring back home... yeah!







While rolling down the hills after visited the Vege market, we took a short break at Green View Garden and Avant Chocolate Factory Shop which is located along to the Simpang Pulai route.





We still reluctantly to leave Cameron Highlands and all we got to say is We will be back again to cameron highlands by 2.09pm.

My "Very First" Cameron Highlands Trip on 6-8 Aug 2010 (Part II)

After had a sweet nite and restful sleep, i woke up early Saturday morning with a full of energized body and a very fresh new day . Yay! is a very fresh beginning, Good Morning buddies !!! I took a picture of the gorgeous fresh morning in our first day morning at Cameron Highlands.

I'm sure everyone does agree that breakfast is the most important meal of the Day. So, we lighten up our day by preparing our own made breakfast.


After filling our hunger stomach with delicious burger and beverage, then we started our tour in the late morning, at around 10:59am. Our first stop is Taman Madu Lebah...the owner, Mr Choo was sharing with us about different types of HONEY BEES meanwhile he was also promoting his products. The price is vary according to the benefits of the honey bee, so it is depends on you which types of honey bee you are looking for...

Our second stop was The Lakehouse, an exclusive getaway in the natural beauty of the Cameron Highlands.



To most tea lover, Anytime is tea time ! So, How about you? We stop at Cameron Bharat tea house to sip on a cup of tea while enjoying the the view of huge, green-ish, and beautiful scenery of the tea plantations which we think it is really splendid. A very tranquil scenery ! I love it so much !!! It was such a long walk to the lowest ground of tea plantation, we took many of photos including acting, jumping, hugging, running, sitting and get some fresh and cold water near the small waterfall (the waterfall was not really a waterfall to me).This is just a baby...ya baby waterfall. My dream is to see a really big waterfall that will set me in awe! Climbing up back to Bharat Cafe stop is not as easy as "kacang putih" or "sap sap sui" especially for someone who is out of shape! we forced to speed up our footstep back to the top because it was going to rain... Rainy day will made even colder but more shiok! I love the cold ! I was panting by the time I reached the top. -.-"






Halfway through our tour, it's time for lunch ! We just simply had our lunch at one of the Restaurant named You Hoo Seafood Restaurant which located at Brinchang.
I never thought of food in Brinchang is over expensive than I thought. It is not cheap, all we had our order was only local vege... 5 dishes of meal which inlcuding one plate of ginger chicken already cost about RM 60++. Luckily we only had once there. I really get shocked! I never thought of food price in Brinchang is that terrible! Compared to my recent trip to mount kinabalu,Sabah and we stayed at Pine Resort... bf and i had 5 dishes of meal which fish and chicken were included it is far more cheaper than here...Brinchang, Cameron Highlands.


We continue our journey again and visit the Healthy Strawberry Farm which is located at the hill above Merlin Hotel.Self-plucking of strawberries are also available here. Besides that, Healthy Strawberry Farm also housed lots of cactus, varieties of flowers and organic vegetables.



Ice-cream with fresh strawberries cost RM5. Fresh strawberries topped with chocolate,whipped cream, vanilla and strawberry flavored ice-cream is worth to try.

It's already late afternoon after we had just a few kms small tour in Cameron Highlands. Before going back to apartment to prepare for our BBQ dinner, we stopped at Brinchang Pasar Malam.









If you're having BBQ, what's on your menu ? For our second night dinner in Cameron Highlands... we're having Beef & Lamb ribs, Beef & Chicken Satay, chicken wings, hot dogs, sausage, corn on the cob roasted. We're so excited enjoying our BBQ dinner at Ms Khor's Garden! Great Outdoor Dinner !



In Cameron Highland when dark comes there were no activities at all,an extreme tiredness makes us get into bed early. Thanks a lot to my boss, Jackson and bf, Adrian for helping me in kitchen to wash tons of dishes after the BBQ. It is quite nice when you have someone to help you while you are really in tiring mode. Really appreciate it! really, who doesn't appreciate some extra helping hands in the kitchen rite ?!


Good Nite & sleep tight everybody (yawning) ^.^

My "Very First" Cameron Highlands Trip on 6-8 Aug 2010 (Part I)

Cameron Highland history started with tea plantations.The Highlands were named after William Cameron, a British colonial government surveyor who discovered the plateau during a mapping expedition in 1885. The fame of Cameron Highlands then grew during the colonial era when British planters realized the potential of its fertile mountain slopes for growing tea, then a prized commodity.

1st Day ( Depart from Klang - Cameron Highlands )

We started our journey from Klang about 2pm after we had our quick and light lunch (to avoid uncomfortable feeling) before reaching our destination because the paths to the peak of Cameron Highlands are curve and narrow. We felt like every minute our car is turning here and there...left ! right ! left & right ! After few hours journey, finally we reach Cameron Highlands at 5:29pm. YeahoOO~~~ This is my "very first" step to Cameron Highlands !!!



Before going further down to Tanah Rata to check-in at Green Hills apartment, we drop by at Brinchang Pasar Malam to get some fresh vege for our dinner.


Here is the place where we stay, The Block Eugine of Green Hills Apartment which is belongs to a chinese lady, Ms Khor. She is very friendly and nice lady ! She is always kind to provide us the things we need... such as extra bed ? No problem and free of charge ! BBQ Pit ? ok ! Table for BBQ ? ok take it ! All fulfill. Thanks ;-)




After check in, we, ladies are busying to prepare dinner. Our menu for first night in Cameron Highlands is "Steamboat".
The cold weather is definitely perfect to eat steamboat
Agree ??? Ya ! Ya ! Ya !!!



After dinner...




We went to Tanah Rata town which is just 5 mins driving from our apartment.Then we decides to take a short walk around the town which allowed me easy for taking heaps of pics. It was freezing cold and windy during the night.... The moment I got out, I immediately felt like I was in Kundasang, Sabah. I miss Sabah a lot !!!
