Fast Furious Friday - Happy Children's Day !

We spent this year Children day by going to Johor Bahru for Go - kart experience. It's much cheaper than in Sentosa.

We left Singapore around 1.30pm and the traffic was pretty smooth, we spent 45 mins in customs and reach Park around 2.30pm.

The session itself took about 10 minutes and we did pairing.

Papa with Ted, Papa with Tromson and koko Richie drove alone. Mama couldn't drive as her left shoulder was injured so she took video and pictures.

It's very fun and we enjoyed it.

After that, we had early dinner at sushi house nearby, then we had grocery shopping before heading home.

We moved to another city which is Ipoh, it's 2 hours drive from Cameron Highland. The city is quiet but rich in flavour. The food was nice especially in the Old Town Ipoh. Ipoh is a unique city because it's surrounded by the limestones.

Christmas Holiday in Malaysia (19 - 30 Dec 2022) - Part 3 (Cameron Highlands)

On Christmas eve, we moved to another place which is the coldest place in West Malaysia. It took around 3 hours from Genting since there's traffic jam in the highway. 

When we entered Cameron Highlands area, it seemed like we were in the England suburbs. The buildings were Irish style. Thanks God our hotel was located in the city centre thus it's very convenient to find the amenities like food, laundry, pharmacies.

We had Christmas eve's dinner below the hotel, the food was good and cheap. It's a western food.

The next day we celebrated Christmas mass at the church nearby which was around 2 mins drive from the hotel. The mass was conducted in Mandarin and the homily was spoken in 3 languages.

After that we had full day tour from visiting the sheep farm, Boh tea plantation, and lavender garden and in the evening we had steamboat dinner at the hotel.

On the boxing day, we went to Strawberries farm for strawberry handpicking, the strawberries were sweet and juicy. Then we went to Iskandar waterfall, some of us dip in the water while the rest was taking photo.

The last day before we left to Ipoh, we went to Flora park and took a lot of beautiful pictures with the flowers background. It seemed like we were in the Flower Dome at Garden by the bay.
