Cameron Highlands

Over the weekend, I was at Cameron Highlands with the car club. The road via Simpang Pulai is just fantastic. The drive is at 3rd/4th gear turns with some occasionally 2nd gear input. Not too bad. The scenary is something to behold. Green everywhere, strawberries everywhere... tea plantations too! Temperature at night was about 16 degree... Pretty chillin'. Stayed at Strawberry Park.. hotel on the highest point in Cameron Highlands. Not too bad really. Of course it would have been better if stayed at Cameron Highlands Resort by YTL... but that would have cost a whooping RM500++ a night! Nuts... we had scones there though! :)

What's the big deal about scones anyway? Some fancy british style tea time snack? Screw that! For RM5 a piece is expensive at YTL's. Could have gotten 5 pieces for RM1 at the coffee shop next door! Ha! But the ambience was fantastic. Credit goes to YTL for such a good job. I think the cafe is called Jim Thompson Lounge. Don't know what the big deal with Jim Thompson is but apparently he's some guy who got lost in Camerons. ??? Why?!

Was a great LEPAKING weekend!

Lepak, Slack, Lepak, Slack.

Nice eh?
