Cameron Highlands.....known as the largest and most famous hill resort in the country.....nowadays the highland still retains the charm of an English village.....with its agricultural domain.....there's lots of vegetables and fruits farms.....and amazing sights of flowers and cactus.....


Rose Valley.....one of the lovely sight to spot different kind of flowers and cactus..... colourful and such a amazing flowers and cactus gardens......refreshing and so cooling inside the gardens with the combination of its low temperature here......

Stingray flower.....first time discovered this type of flower.....it's gorgeous.....
With its nature shape.....it really looks like stingray.....somehow the white patches in the middle form the eyes and those tiny curly parts at the bottom form a tail......
Awesome! what an unique flower can be spotted here......


Boh Plantation.....we did not miss this great opportunity to have a view of tea plantation......surrounding by all the greens.....definitely felt...so relaxing.....away from busy city......and we also visited the factory as well to determine on how they process those tea.....after that we had a drink there.....wow! those tea that they sold.....100% good in quality......the freshness of tea produced a very strong smell and perfect to drink without sugar added while enjoying the fantastic scenery......
We had our lunch quite late.....at one of the steamboat restaurants in Brinchang.....needed hot food....hot soup....hot tea.....everything has to be hot.....cause we felt cold.....going to freeze soon....hahaha....
Then we had a walk in Tanah Rata for a while.....and we had another light meal.....cream scone......somekind of cookie bread served with cream, strawberry jam and butter.....very nice....with a cup of hot tea....
We returned to the resort till the night began....
For our dinner, Terence brought us to German Swiss Restaurant in Tanah Rata.....the very first time for the rest of us......German food.....
Most of us ordered.....A Butcher Plate (pic on the right)......consists of ham, knuckles, sausage and pork legs served with mash potatoes and salad......everything is pork.....and each portion is huge.....definitely suitable for pork lovers.....
Looks great....and of course we had a wonderful meal on that night.....especially those porks served with the right sauce......somekind of garlic mushrooom sauce.....Eu Min took his own sweet times to finish his meal.....
Then we headed to the night market in Brinchang......and we went down to Kg. Raja for another great view of night sceneries there.....merely the lights from the farms in the darkness......

Not forgotten.....here's where we stayed.....Bala's Resort situated between Brinchang and Tanah Rata..... decorated with lovely unique designs....full of greens.....and of course a comfort place to spend overnight......
On the next morning, before we headed back to Ipoh......I bought a lot of strawberries and cherry tomaotes in the open air market......Eugene bought some flowers.....
