Camlands Cheer III: Jack and Jill Went Down the Hill
The rain welcomed us again the next morning. Everything was covered in mist. Dragged myself out of bed, freshened up and completed my packing. The cold, dry air of Cameron had wreaked havoc on my face. In just 3 days, it had become flaky. :(. Had to use emergency measures-- lather on lots of cream and hyaluronic acid. And the air pressure going up had caused my eye gel to spurt like a leaky cock. Ish. Bear was nicely snuggled under the toasty sheets while Pikey had the job of coaxing him out of bed. Dangling a carrot or salmon or banana as bait, you use your imagination. Fortunately, the breakfast spread was different from the day before. We sat at a table with an elderly Japanese couple who started chatting with me after she saw me cross myself saying grace. Turns out that they're on a month-long holiday travelling from Penang->Cameron Highlands->KL->New Zealand. Best-nya. Filled our tummies to the max, then checked out. On our way down, we had to go through the jams again. Sigh. The only stop we made was at the Avant Chocolate Factory and Strawberry Farm. The same people who opened the Strawberry Moments Cafe. At least they had some decent-sized strawberries there and SK managed to buy some red coral. Camwhored somemore among the flowers and anthuriums (SK's fave flower, the penis plant, :P)
At Bidor, we made a beeline for Pun Chun. A really old shop selling food and pastries. Lunch was water cress soup and herbal duck noodles. It's not great, but it's better than any I had in KL. After filling our tummies, nearly everyone fell asleep in the car (unless Pikey was driving in his sleep). Arrival at KL was at about 4:00pm where we made a stop a nearby Chinese medicine hall to buy some soup herbs. You can read about the lovey-dovey soup-feeding between Bear and Pikey at their respective blogs. LOL. My day did not end there. Later that night, SK, KT, mum and I attended a BEC Christmas gathering at Taman Medan that also tripled as a birthday and wedding anniversary celebration! A big turnout. Lotsa carolling. Plenty of food, but too much meat in my opinion. Had a great chat with KT and SK. By the time we got home, the lethargy had finally set in... The end.
P.S.: My next trip there should be with KH... since Anton seems to think that it's the perfect place for a romantic getaway!
