CAMERON HIGHLANDS
If i have describe my holiday in Cameron, i'd called it SPLENDID! Went with Shirley, Isadora and Esther! Cameron is a beautiful place, and i just love it! The journey up on the bus was a killer for me, too cold, it was "ONLY 18 degrees" as the bus uncle told us...he had a choice to make it 25 degrees but he chose to kill us with 18 degrees. Anyway, i was freezing all night, 9 hr journey. When we finally reached, had breakfast, and then checked into our hotel.
Went out for a walk outside our hotel, we were located at a pretty decent place, with pretty decent shops ard us. The shops were more or less the same, either selling vegetables and fruits, flowers, or strawberry-looking toys and souvenirs. At night, we went to Brinchang night market, and also had steamboat for dinner. Very cheap, 13 RM per pax, and we ate until we couldn't eat anymore.
The second day, we signed up for an AROUND-CAMERON HIGHLAND-TOUR. With an overpriced amount of 320RM, the four of us were sitting in a 32-year old merc cab, driven by a very happening taxi driver-cum-our-tourguide. Anyway, this guy made out trip really fun, i was "suaned" by him on many occasions. Until now, i'm still wondering if it was because i had this "suan-me" face. We went to 9 different places, tea plantation, bee farm, flower farm, strawberry/vegetable farm, tea valley to drink tea, 2 waterfalls (did quite a bit of "trekking" there). Yeah, Elena's favourite activities! I love the weather, it was cold but shiok. God was good, both days he only sent drizzle of blessings, once to tell us to go have dinner, the other to say that we should end the tour here today. We went to pick strawberries at the farm, so fun! Salad there was at its freshest state too.
Anyway, in the evening, went out to do some last minute shopping, bought some flowers. Headed back to hotel for dinner, and then..i thought of the craziest thing to do! Went downstairs to get ice cream, and then we headed out, sat down on the bench in the cold, and started eating ice cream, without our jackets! Shiok, though we had two friends freezing and shivering out there in the cold. Hey, mind u i was wearing a sleeveless top, and i was without my boots! But i really loved it manz...reminded me of the time i was in Sydney with Shir and Janice, eating ice cream along the waterfront.
Headed back to the hotel, Esther and Isadora played pool. Had an early night. In all, i really thank God, because i saw His faithful hand upon us during this trip.
Thank U Lord for blessing us with more than we could ever imagine. Thank You for how You have used this trip to end 2006 and start 2007 for 4 of us. Thank You for bringing us to see your beautiful creation. Thank You for knowing our heart's desire. Thank You for speaking to us during the trip. Thank You for yr affirmation and Your assurance to us.
Everything i commit to memory, the laughter, the tears, the joy, the pain, our time together, our love for each other. Thank You Lord. =)
