Cold, relaxing, fun trip - Cameron Highlands

It's my 3rd time, Kieron's 2nd time, Kayden's 1st time to Cameron Highlands..

This time round, we had more fun than past trips.. Kieron had fun chatting with our guide aka driver, Mani. Kayden had fun teasing the elders in our group. The kids came across many things that amused and amazed them. We stayed in Hotel Equatorial, located on the highest peak of Cameron Highlands, there's no air con, yet it's already freezing with the windows partially opened.

The weather was lovely, lowest when we're there abut 14C, highest about 22C. It was fantastic especially when we're climbing uphill, panting, tired but not sweating.. keke.. Bad was it could cause bad chills down the spine when cold wind came by.

We went many places ---



Time tunnel - Museum that showcased antiques from past



Sam Poh Temple


Multicrop Central market - selling souvenirs, food, vege to flowers


Steamboat dinner is a MUST in Cameron Highlands, Mani intro us this restaurant. It was delicious, affordable and amazing to eat with a long chimney steamboat.



Rose Centre - Biggest centre all the way uphill, it took us 1.5hrs to travel up n down the hill.



Smokehouse - Built by British, but now owned by a Chinese businessman. It's a hotel that only has 40 rooms, each night can costs few hundreds.. Pity that there's Xmas event for the rich, outsiders could not go in to take photos.


Boh Tea Plantation - Shelyn and I took a photo in front of this rock 12yrs ago. Now we're back again and aged.. =_=


Went Bee farm and another Butterfly farm - Kieron learnt how to catch butterflies barehanded.. The butterflies were pretty but I was scared out of wits when they flew near me. Taking closed up photos for each type of them made me shiver..


Mani's farm located in a valley. The wind was so much colder than around those farms near our hotel. It's truly Cameron Highlands whereby no high rised buildings around, merely mountains, farms and friendly people. The kids and adults were fantasized with the veges grown in the farm.

Last day in Cameron Highlands was the coldest. The kids were wrapped up and had fun running about while waiting for arrival of our coach.

We took 700+ photos in 2 days, attached some highlights of the places we went. Hopefully we can go Cameron Highlands again, probably next year. Mani's parents invited us to stay there for a week. We shall plan again. keke..

Kieron's Grad concert photos by school



Kayden's first Photocard shoot

Despite Kayden's usual reluctance of photo taking, he's kinda curious and interested with the machine that "talks". He smiled and posed nicely for almost every shots we took. About 10 shots. We only managed to choose 4shots.

here are they.. It's really nicely taken..

Baby Bunnies Growing well

Remembering 1week+ ago, baby bunnies' mother had no milk after labor. Had been syringe feeding them with formula milk for couple of days.. After calcium nutrients intake for bunny mummy, she started to have milk supply..





One week later, the bunnies opened their eyes, jumpy and playful. Now they no longer sleep in a small pet carrier, but moved to a big wooden "drawer" with a baby guinea pig. They became real good friends, sleeping and cuddling together. Aren't they adorable?
Double Ks love them so much that they each own one "baobei".



Kayden starts to love taking photo

First time to Sungei Buloh nature reserve park 13nov10


At first,when double Ks heard abt e plan of going,they were really excited n enthusiastic. Getting changed fast n chased us out of hs. They were asking qs non stop on our way there.
When we reached there, e boys were dashing,couldnt wait to explore.however,we explained that this park isnt same like zoo.animals r on wild.they r supposed to walk close to US. After seeing e first crocodile "Watch it" signboard.that really freaked me out,though already knew crocs do appear before,but with 2kids around,became so so so alert.that I was a little overwhelmed,Keke.even some grass movements made me pulled e kids near me.u could hear me repeating "please walk in e center of e path if nt u will fallover" both sides of e path r mangroves. From e path, we could c live monitor lizards that grew up to 80cm.some even walked from 1side of mangrove to another.we saw big shiny fishes jumping out of from water.saw some migratory birds,lovely insects,otters fightin over fish,n plenty of mosquitoes smacked by us. During that 2.5hours walk,we had over 10bites on our arms n legs.my bro n double Ks had some on their faces. We were dehydrated,finished our water within first hour. Afterall, we were delighted that we managed to walk finish despite how hot n tired. We even walked to e main road to take bus back from e park,no bus on sat,we walked for 20mins,thank god it was windy n cloudy when its home time,if nt we had become dried fishes. Haha. E boys learnt alot,from nature to safety needs. Next target hortpark.

Suhui's Church Wedding 231010

Suhui is a best friend of mine since Primary school. hmmz.. Since Primary 4 to be exact, we been in same class in primary school, same ECA (Chinese Dance) till Secondary sch, same class when in Upper Sec school. & never stop in contact till now..

She's one of those friends I cherished alot. We had arguments, cold wars, fun, happy moments before. True friends stayed in bond regardless what happened and how far we b apart.

Seeing her walking down the aisle with her daddy, emotions, memories and tears rose from bottom of heart. My little friend got married with a man she loved and after going through so much in her life.. She had a life somewhat different from any other girls around us. To see her found her true love, felt so touched and happy. Tried to control from crying, told myself "silly girl, no one is crying and you are, people will laugh at u, it's a happy occasion". hehe..

Followed after the church ceremony was a delicious fulfiling buffet. Hey! I can say that's the most expensive, high class reception I ever had. haha.. I miss the food!! Took alot photos too.. hehe.. After being a mother, I hardly took photos, felt so old.. But many of my friends are into pro photo taking now, so had fun with them.

Hope will have another gathering with my friends soon. I love being with them.. Below some photos taken. Think more be coming..

We just arrived at Church of Anthony

Trying to keep the same height as Kieron

Grouchy Kayden, he had bad cough that day

With the bride of the day

With one of sister, also my sweet sister cum best friend, Shelyn.

Couple hearing Priest's prayers.

Think we had years didn't take photos of our own

Behind the scene, Kayden was pulling me from my back. So you can see me slightly afar from the girls. He don't want me to take photo.

Actually purpose of this photo was supposed to candid, but previous shots were ugly sides of me, so I 'forced" Robert to take another nicer shot. hehe..

Chill out @ Woodlands Waterfront

A giant cone of ice cream. Yummy!!





Lovely sunset.. This is what drew my dad's liking of going waterfront no matter how tired he is after a day's work.

Kayden wanted to follow us taking scenery pics using our hp. This was what he took. Not bad ya. keke..

Threw a tantrum, cos I'm worried he might dropped my phone into the sea. Just few steps away.

Kieron trying to act like he shot that circle of fire up in sky, just like what Ultraman did.
