Cameron Highlands

Posted by nolly at 8:21 PM
Hellooo girls!

Exam is over! Phew.. The result will be available in few weeks time. Doakan sy dpt 4 flat this semester. Amin.


Sweating through the exam week, here came the time of escaping from tough torturing uni/lab life and seeking a back to nature activity. So we had this short trip to Cameron Highlands last Saturday. This is the second time i've been here and first time for Anie, but we both feel soo excited! The journey took about 3.5hours from my sis place in Kundang, didn't feel that long coz we had a very good time chatting and singing along the way :-)

Stayed at a budget hotel in Brinchang town which cost us only RM88 for a double room. Quite cheap but don't underestimate we've got a cozy, clean room equipped with LCD tv.


Our first stop was Butterfly Farm. The entry free is RM5 per person. You cannot catch the butterflies, but they can simply catch u!

Next was Cactus Point near Kea Farm. Six mini cactus cost me RM10. Rambang mata nak pilih okeh.

SHOPPING TIPS:
1. Buy the mini cactus at Pasar malam Brinchang u can get cheaper RM10 for 8pcs.
2. TEA: Cameron Valley flavoured tea is the cheapest at Kea Farm (shop near/next to Equatorial) u can get RM8 per box (25pcs individually sealed), Boh flavoured tea and Vanilla tea are cheapest at Cactus Point (differ up to rm5 oke). Always check the manufacturing and expired date.
3. Strawberry key chains: RM1 each or RM5 for 6.
4. Strawberry jams: The best is Kasimanis brand at Kasimanis shop near Tanah Rata, u can't find them at Kea Farm or pasar malam. RM6 per jar, if u buy more u can bargain for RM5.50 or RM5. At Kasimanis u can find gooseberry jam too.
5. Strawberries at Kea Farm, the most freshest tgk daun segar ke layu, better pick yang die blom pack, still dlm picking tray box lagi. Dark-deep red one is sweeter than lighter color ones. Come early morning (they open at 9am) to grab the most biggest and freshest strawberries to bring back home.
6. Do not park your car at certain side road (with no parking sign) at Kea Farm on Sunday, or u'll get love letter from police. We both were so lucky, the police issued summons to the cars nearby few mins after we left.
7. Be careful when driving, certain selekoh looks very tajam and licin especially after raining, we saw many towing vehicle standby on the way back to KL. Must be some common spots for car accident.
8. BOIKOT PAK NIK IKAN BAKAR, the kedai makan is near pasar malam (in front of Petronas) a bit ke belakang, tunggu makanan for almost one hour x sampai, at last we had to cancel, waiter kedai pun redha buat muka biasa x bersalah. Sengal! kalu tak mampu nk masak kan utk sume orang cakap la awal2.. sempat pengaruh org lain utk leave kedai. huhuu padan muka kau.

Till then, tata.
