Hubby suggested that we bring the kids to Cameron Highlands for cooler fresh air since both of them wanted to put on the knit wear I got for them. Now you know why I knit so much? It’s because of my two biggest fans that demanded clothes from me, but for these sweaters, I ordered them from the shop.

We reached there rather early in the morning and the first thing we did was visiting a tomato farm owned by hubby’s friend.

The tomato farm

Now I know how tomatoes are plucked and washed

We didn’t leave the farm empty handed, the owner gave us one big box of tomatoes!!! But I know we can finish them in less than 3 days. LOL!

Then, we headed off to Boh Tea Plantation. I really hate the narrow road and wonder why can’t they widen the road? There were so many cars and buses going up and down the plantation and it’s only centimeters away before any vehicle dropped off down the cliff!

Very congested leh…

But at least my kids loved the place. Now they have a better idea on where tea leaves are from.

Can pluck back for po po or not?

We stopped by the cafe for some tea and cakes. As usual, my kids ran around after they had stuffed their tummies, and Isabelle even made friends with some ang moh.

Let’s eat!

As for me, I was busy snapping photos of the hills of tea trees. It’s really nice to be up there yesterday morning.

Nice view huh?

After that, it rained for a while but we still walked down the slope to our car. Thank god my kampung kids won’t get sick easily. *touch wood*

Since it’s raining, we went to the butterfly farm. It’s shaded so we didn’t get wet. Besides butterflies, there were snakes, beetles, lizards, frogs, tortoises, and other kinds of creepy crawlers too. We spent some time checking out the cactus and flowers too.

Some photo shots

The flowers are nice here…

Can kick the cactus or not? LOL!

Nice flowers leh….

It’s about lunch time by then and we decided to stop by Ye Olde Smokehouse for lunch. It’s such a nice place but since it’s a boutique hotel, spending a night here can be quite expensive.

Once we placed our orders, we had a stroll in the garden while my kids enjoyed their lollipops. The garden has lots of pretty plants and flowers, and both Justin and Isabelle had a good time disturbing those angmohs running around.

Sweet sweet lollipops

Wah, there’s a cannon here!

Insides also very nice hoh, mei mei…

The kids didn’t eat much. Maybe they were tired and sleepy after a long morning. After lunch, Isabelle felt asleep but Justin was still wide awake. We stopped by a strawberry farm and let him have fun picking the strawberries by himself.

I pick my own strawberries! (There’s hubby’s carrying sleepy Isabelle at the back)

Oh no, the trip didn’t end here. Justin found a horse among the kiddie rides outside the farm and he wanted to have a ride.

I love my “horse” ride

By then, we got to say bye bye to Cameron Highlands as we had a birthday party to catch. Both of them slept in the car until we reached Ipoh. They were very exhausted after a fun filled day.
