A Bunch of Crazy WS Members at Lata Iskandar and Cameron Highlands

Today, our expedition is to Lata Iskandar. A well known Waterfall that people that uses the old road to Cameron Highlands will definitely pass by along the road side. Although this is a fall that a lot of people that might have been or seen... this trip there's 9 of us...


We all reached Lata Iskandar around 9.30am this morning. Vincent and Fahazrul joined us at Lata Iskandar. There was not much crowd there... just a few foreigners who's on the way to Cameron taking pictures there.


The water is so so cold... but nice... Only 4 of us jump in the shallow pool... as others couldn't take the coldness of the water... It took us quite some time to dip our whole body in as it's really freezing cold.


A real nice place to visit.. Easy... just at the road side. A lot of stalls there and the toilet is clean and well maintained. The park itself is also very clean. Couldn't see rubbish around the waterfalls and picnic areas. Thumbs up for the the people that manages the waterfall.

After the our nice dip at the waterfall... took a rest for a while at the side... and some crazy ideas came out... Since we were halfway near Cameron Highlands, why not go up??... Finally 6 of us decided... OK.. Let's go Cameron...

So we hit the road following the long winding road to Cameron Highlands.

We stopped at a restaurant for steamboat in Brinchang Town. Nice cold weather with a hot pot of steamboat is the best thing for our lunch... after nice waterfall... We only ordered for 4 pax but it was enough for 6 of us.

 
 

After our steamboat lunch, we went to the Big Red Strawberry Park to get some strawberries and headed to Mossy Forest in Brinchang Hill... We stop along the way to take pictures of the tea plantations. This time the weather in Mossy Forest was not as cold as the last round on our WS trip. The place is dry... and the nice breeze was not too cold for us. Thank god.. as this was not in our itinerary, majority of us were in short pants and no jackets or windbreaker.. We spent more than an hour at Mossy Forest busy taking lots of pictures.. as most of us likes taking pictures.. We had the place almost by ourself cos there were not many visitors at this time around.


Almost 4pm. We need to rush down to Boh Tea Sg Palas Tea Plantation before they close. Just on time for a nice cup of tea and some cakes before they close at 5pm. After the nice tea break, we started our exploring around the tea plantations. Of course a lot of pictures... posing... hahaha....




We left the place around 6pm and headed to Blue Valley Flower Farm and bought some organic vege. Blue Valley is higher than Brinchang so it was real real cold there especially is almost getting dark.

We then leave for our dinner at Ipoh. Went to a restaurant in Pasir Pinji name Tuck Kee for our Dinner. The food is not fantastic... but worth a try... they are famous for their Roasted Duck. So we ordered another few dishes to go with the duck...




We left Ipoh after our dinner around 9.30pm... Reached KL about 12am... WAH.... A REAL FULL USE of our Sunday.. hahaha...

This is one of the nice trip in WS as it was a real real fun trip with a bunch of crazy members. lots of laughter.... crazy stuffs...
