"Now I Know How Heaven Feels Like, It's So Cold"

Says Cousin JiaHan when she first arrived with us in Cameron. How cute was that? :)

Day 1- 10th December
We drove up to Perak and stopped at Kellie's Castle for a little stop. It's an incomplete mansion and although rumours say its haunted, I find the deserted mansion really fun. There's 6 levels altogether, 3 locked ones underground. Then we drove all the way to Cameron. Checked in at Equatorial Hotel. Only one bedroom, so we children slept on the floor in sofas and mattress and sleeping bags. It was so so so so cold! Found Disney Channel on the TV Channels. Watched Phineas and Ferb. So cute. Ate steamboat. Felt so warm after that. Saw the Brinchang Funfair, decided to go play there tomorrow.

Day 2- 11th December
Woke up and decided to go pick strawberries. Went to a few strawberry farms but strawberries were all not suitable for plucking. :( Took lotsa lotsa photos with cactuses and flowers. Went to TCafe for lunch. Food there was really yummy. 
Played 'Pass The Message', and somehow the message "Superman wears his underpants outside because he's afraid that he will wet his pants while fighting crime" turned out to be  "Superman hid his panties in the tunnel", which was completely stupid and funny! 
Went to Cameron Bharat Tea Plantation. Tea leaves didn't even smell of tea; they smelt of normal fresh leaves. After that we went to BOH Tea Plantation. Such a big plantation. The roads were very windy and you have to horn at every sharp corner just to let other cars know that you're coming through. We opened the windows and helped shout to cars at corners that we're coming through. Was really crazy. :P

Day 3- 12th December
Went to BOH Tea Plantation again (the other part of the plantation. They have three parts in Cameron. How huge is that?!) and took a tour. Drank Ice Blackberry Tea. SO NICE! <3 
Drove all the way up to Gunung Brinchang. Took a climb uphill and then it started raining. Stayed under shelter until rain stopped, then rushed all the way downhill and drove off. Went to Mountain Strawberry Farm and finally- we got to pick our own strawberries! Plucked about a while kilogram load of fresh, ripe strawberries. They tasted real sweet. 
Went to Butterfly Farm. Butterflies were so beautiful they looked surreal. Saw a baby snake crawling on the ground (eeks!) JiaHan freaked out and Chel ignored it. Mom and Chel helped a helpless flutterly butterfly move itself from the ground to a leaf out of passerbys way. 
Went to Rose Centre but it was already closed.

Day 4- 13th December
Went to Ye Olde Smokehouse. It was a very very very nice place to live in. And everything there looked absolutely old. Drove down to Tapah, JiaHan and I got very dizzy and kept stuffing ourselves with sour plum. Stopped at Lata Iskandar waterfall. Played there, it was so wonderful! But then it rained and we changed and drove all the way back home. 
I love waterfalls! <3

There're seriously a LOT of pictures that we took during this trip. For pictures go to My Facebook. :)
