Yang kali ni pun we went there without proper planning. On Saturday morning tu rasa macam kepala semak, terus je decide to go to Cameron tengaharinya. I don't normally do much things in Cameron, except for relaxing, and go shopping for some sayur mayur, fruits and my favorite pearl corn. Jagung kat sana somehow rasa lain sikit dari kat bawah ni kan? Sambil-sambil tu boleh cari petai kesukaan Mr D yg dijual tepi jalan near kampung-kampung orang asli tu. Biasanya cantik-cantik petainya. Sometimes tu, singgah sekejap merehatkan minda di Lata Iskandar on the way up or on the way down. This time I got to buy tudung saji anyaman di Lata Iskandar, OK lah juga walau harganya tak lah semurah mana.
This time we chose to stay at Strawberry Park. Believe it or not, we just gamble je tau tak book earlier pun. There are a lot of hotels and apartments in Cameron, so there's nothing to worry about. Asalnya we all nak try Cameron Highland Resort, I like this place. Cuma nasib tak menyebelahi kami, it was full then. So we went to Strawberry Park not far from there. Cameron Highlands Resort ni is more accessible, sebab just next to the main road, unlike Strawberry Park where we had to go deep inside (with not so convenient road). The room was spacious, very convenient though. Parking pun right in front. So basically our objective to just relax was achieved.
We didn't have much plan, that night just jalan-jalan dekat night market di Brinchang cari food as usual. Night market di Brinchang ni memang ada masa weekend, and if I am not mistaken, kalau cuti sekolah memang ada every day. That's where we can get local food and all. We all sakan lah meratah itu ini malam tu.
The next morning tu buffet breakfast di Jim Thompson Terrace. Mr D almost naik darah sekejap masa kami turun breakfast tu, because they make customers wait for almost an hour sebab tak cukup meja in the restaurant. Can you believe that? It was so disappointing, considering Strawberry Park is not a cikai resort kan. Lama jugak we had to wait before we were allowed in. Buffet pun so-so je lah, not bad, but not that good either. But okeylah, buat alas perut.
With no plan in mind, we thought of relaxing kejap kat Big Red Strawberries Farm di Brinchang. Kat sini ada ladang strawberry, sayur-sayur especially salad, and some strawberry based food. Aktiviti biasa di sini biasanya kami jadi pemetik strawberry lah. Sebenarnya senang lagi kan just to buy, but kadang-kadang it is a theraphy when we pick it ourselves. Sambil-sambil tu reminisce the days when I worked part time as pemetik strawberry masa di England dulu. But kat sana strawberry atas batas-batas on the ground, di Cameron Highland biasanya atas para. So it is much easier to pick the strawberry in Cameron Highland. Di England dulu sampai sakit-sakit pinggang sebab kena mencangkung sepanjang masa memetik.
Kat sini sayur-sayurnya pun kita boleh just ask the worker to pick and we can buy. But masa we went tu it was still young, not yet ready to be sold. So kempunan lah I nak cabut sayur-sayur tu, especially the salad, looks so nice and so young kalau makan tu mesti best.
Lepas dah berjalan di Big Red Strawberries Farm tu, we wanted to go and shop for vegetables to be brought back to KL. The normal place we go biasanya di Kea Farm, but this time sebab it was so jam and was so difficult to park there, kami akhirnya pergi di tapak pasar malam di Brinchang tu and bought all the vegetables there. Memang puas hati, sebab banyak choice dan murah. I kalau bab shopping sayur ni memang rambang mata.
But that's about all we did kat sana lah. Sebab unplanned kan. Biasanya I suka pergi Boh plantation, minum-minum teh kat atas tu. But then this time tak pergi sebab Mr D nak balik KL cepat, so we dropped by kat Bharat Tea je.. sambil makan scone yang oh not so nice lah. Tapi minum teh sambil tengok view tea plantation memang relaxing kan?
