Cameron highland balik hari (Cerita 1)

Assalamualaikum...

Alhamdulillah...ketika aku menulis malam ini...Syawal sudah masuk hari ke-4 dan aku dah pun mula bekerja. Rajin kan....

It is still not too late to wish all of readers "Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri"...

This year it was Johor turn....I'll update the story about my raya in Johor soon....pictures cannot be uploaded as I left the transfer cable at my kampung.....sabar ye nak..

OK...while waiting my favourite "Dog Whisperer" to be on air.....mau sambung my craziest day trip to Cameron Highlands.....intro here.

It was started early on Saturday morning while watching tv. I was planning to go to office to clear all the works but after my wife asking about jalan-jalan...the i cancelled my plan lah...I knew she was bored...hehehehe.....what a 'suami mithali'....hahahaha

OK lah....after a quick preparation and my daughter was ready to go and looked cun...we moved out at around 9.00am. I believed there will be no traffic jam on that day as it was not a school holiday or any festive seasons.

We stopped at Rawang rest area for quick breakfast....but not that quick la since that little girl was around.....looking for bubur nasi and luckily there was a stall selling it.

I had a very light breakfast......tak mau mengantuk....hehehehe

After all finished, we started the journey to the highlands. The driving was smooth and not many cars on the highway. ..not even a single superbike too....heheheheh....we stopped for refueling at Tapah rest area....

Reminder, once you see this signboard....turn left....I took Tapah route as it was nearer...

I told my wife that our journey had just started..this was just a beginning....hehehehhe

Now, I had to tame the sharp corners like a pro....I wished I was on my kapcai to 'entertain' the corner and chicane....hahahahha

However, we did not stop here...

Until we saw this gigantic strawberry on the road side and we stopped for pictures....this is the sign that Cameron Highlands is just around the corner. Remember, this fruit is not for consumption.....sangat bahaya pada kesihatan gigi anda....hahahahha


Since it was already lunch time and it was time to prepare my daughter 'appertizer'...susu la.....apa lagi.....once again we stopped at Ringlet to prepare susu.....berapa banyak kali berhenti la......

We reached Tanah Rata at 1.30pm.......the air was cool and not too hot that day....very refreshing. After parking my car, we rushed to the nearest Marrybrown for lunch....bila dingin ni.....perut memang rasa lapar la.. Sorry no pictures while eating....tak sempat nak capture.

After lunch, we lepak a while outside the restaurant...amik angin sejuk....aku pun nak amik 'angin'...hahahaha



So...after the food was comfortable in our tummy, we moved to Brinchang.....several kilometres up from Tanah Rata. Brinchang is well-known with its pasar malam...if I'm not mistaken only on Saturdays and Sundays....

The traffic was quite heavy all the way to Brinchang...and luckily, the air was cool and refreshing....I can tell you this because the air-cond was off......hahhahaa

I plan to complete this story in 2 parts.....macam drama plak..hehehe......I'll continue soon.

Adios!

Cameron highland balik hari

Assalamualaikum...

Jumpa lagi kita ye. Ramadhan pun dah masuk 10 hari terakhir. Kejap je ye....dah nak raya. Tahun ni balik Johor......huhuhuhuhu.....

Oklah. This is just a short entry for our day trip to Cameron Highlands on 23 June 2012. It was our craziest day trip to date. It was began on that very Saturday morning while I was watching tv. Suddenly my wife asked me about to go out jalan-jalan somewhere. Indeed, I was planning to go to office to clear all my backlogs and with the 'request'..put me off. hahahaha....

She suggested Genting but I declined because too costly and close to Kota Damansara. She then suggested Bukit Frazer and I declined once more. Nothing there.....nak main kuda boleh la....tapi takkan sampai petang nak main kuda.

Then, Cameron Highlands popped out of my mouth. She asked,"Jauh tak bang?". I said,"Ada lah dalam 2 jam perjalanan. Tak jauh la." I was guessing only but it took quite some time to reach.

I post here some pictures.....warm up dulu... Story will be coming later...


It was tiring and exhausting.....driving 400km return......but it was fun indeed.

Oklah. Time to turu or sleep in Jawa....

See ya! Adios...

Jalan - jalan : Cherating 2012 (Siri 3)

Assalamualaikum....

Selamat berpuasa kepada semua. Punya la lama aku tak update cerita Cherating ni sampai dah puasa pun. I was very busy lately. It drained me out. Body, mind and soul.

Ingatkan nak update masa hujung minggu tapi tak kesampaian. Ada je halnya....hehehhe...ke alasan yang aku bagi tu..

OKlah..aku cuba habiskan trip ke Cherating ni. Ini adalah hari ke-3.

Biasalah, awal pagi aku dah bangun. Tapi tak dapat la nak tengok sunset...pasai view balkoni terlindung dek pokok.....hanya dapat rasa angin laut dan dengar bunyi ombak menghempas pantai je. Hehehehhe

Yang pasti aktiviti utama mestilah bersarapan. Menunya biasa-biasa je...

Da nama pun Melayu...nasi lemak je la...

Banyak tempat dia ni jalan.....

Da makan...ternampak la kolam renang kat tepi cafe tu.....terus membara jiwa dan semangat renang aku tu...yang penting air tak dalam...takat dada cukup la kot.....takleh dalam2...tak elok untuk kesihatan...hehehehe


Tak lama aku berenang....kolamnya tak menarik...not as good as Legend's........hahahahaha......

ada plan lain masa hari terakhir ni......nak mencanting batik.....haaaaaa.........kat mana tu? Bukan, madam asik tanya kat mana nak canting batik......

Yok kita ke tempat kejadian...tapi sebelum check out la dulu....kang naya je kena belasah pasal tak bayau bil hotel....

Bayau dan usha awek kat kaunter tu...commeeeyyyy....hehehehe

Bab komen.....bagi kat mak datin ni......

Kita dah nak balik KL la kakak....

Udah selesai urusan check out...kami bergerak pantai Cherating....nak cari tempat canting batik gak.....kalau tak mau tidur luar aku 3 bulan....hahahahahha....main gamble je masuk tempat ni....not bad....jumpa gak.....tengok koleksi gambau je.....

Ini lah tempatnya.....tempat ni penuh dgn chalet n resort mampu duduk...hehehhe...view pun boleh tahan

Yok surfing.....

Ini lah kedainya...tempat nak canting tu......


Lama gak nak mencanting ni...bagi pro mungkin kejap je...tapi novis macam kami ni....dekat sejam gak la...dan hasilnya.....


Lepas setel batik suma....kami amik kesempatan beli sikit buah tangan untuk diri sendiri...hehehhee

Ratu shopping.....

Ratu shopping ke dua....

Oleh kerana hari dah petang...kami tak nak lewat sangat sampai KL.....oleh itu...dengan berat hati kami bertolak balik ke KL....yang pasti hari tu memang panas giler........tapi kan...kalu dah sampai Kuantan ni....kena la pi Tanjung Lumpur....pekena sotong celup tepung.....heheheheh



Bila dah kenyang.....berangkat la kami ke KL.....hari memang dah nak gelap masa tu....so takde la gambiran sangat.....cuma kami stop kejap minum dan rehat kat R & R Temerloh....pekena nescafe....

Tu la dia berakhir sudah vacation kami ke Cherating.....satu percutian yang hebat untuk satu keluarga.

Bukan kerna aku banyak duit boleh jalan sana-sini...tapi itulah rahmat perkongsian hidup....suma dikongsi......kos pun dikongsi....hehehheh......

Pergilah bercuti...kalau solo...wat cara solo....kalau berkeluarga.......lagi best kot...

Memang aku suka Cherating....dan Kuantan.....I love the place, food and beaches.....

For our next trip, it would be East Malaysia...either Sarawak or Sabah......however...it is really depending on fund available....hahahahha.....ikat perut beb...

My next update......our craziest day trip to date........where to......wait aaaa....hilang thrill cita skang....

I hope you will enjoy about this trip....this posting is short as I am tired. Until then, see ya! And Selamat Berpuasa to all friends and Muslims in Malaysia.

Adios!
