Mini Getaway

It's the school holidays. We decided to go to Cameron Highlands to enjoy some cool weather as it has been scorching hot lately. Was a big mistake going during the school holidays cum public holiday on Saturday in conjunction with Agong's birthday. The jam was horrendous! A short 15 minute ride became 2 hours! Needless to say we didn't get to do much. But we had a great time still. We had steamboat dinner the first night. Went to Tanah Rata for breakfast the following morning followed by tea at Cameron Valley. Went to Boh plantation further down south later as that was where we really wanted to go initially. Although I have a feeling that it's the other Sungai Palas one up north in Brinchang. Then got stuck for 2 hours to get back to Villa Dahlia. Rested and had a simple dinner at the apartments coz we didn't want to go put and get stuck again. Papa and I went over to Cameron Highlands Resort for a quick little date by their fireplace over a cup of hot chocolate after putting Che Che and Kor Kor to bed while the rest of our family played mahjong.

The next morning, we departed to a self-driving strawberry farm. Cheche was especially thrilled as she had been waiting and waiting to pick some strawberries. We had lots of fun picking a punnet of berries but unfortunately couldn't enjoy the fruits of our labour as we left them in Popo's house in Ipoh!

The last time we were in Cameron was when Cheche was about 6 months old! So this is KorKor's first trip too. Though short and jammy, it was overall a pleasant and memorable little trip.
