December Drizzle

Back-track abit... the story goes back to the month of December in 2006....

The Bojans have been planning for a long-waited survival camping trip for months... and things are really happening when all of us finally got our leaves approved.. except for Choon Bojan's case... hahaha... (mc only laa...)

Our destination for this survival camping trip... Cameron Highlands! And as usual... our theme for the trip: December Drizzle~

Day 1: We took off with style! Everyone gathered at Omaha Bojan's keep, load all the gears and stuff into Greyback, took a few photos and off we go!

The trip was quite a long one, took us around 4 hours to reach Cameron Highland.
Primary mission: to find a suitable camp site.
We cut through the hills, drive pass the town... what's the heck with all these commotion?! lots of cars, CH trucks, crowds and shop lots... plenty of strawberry farm, cactus farm, tea farm.... the word for this: COMMERCIALIZED! We can't find our camp site!? After searching for some time... we came to a conclusion that it's not possible for us to do our survival camping here... hence, we settled down in one of the restaurant and have our dinner, steamboat! Once we had our meal, we need to find a place to spend and sleep throughout the night.

Result: Blondie, Jessica, Me (sleep in the car); Omaha, Choon (sleep with their sleeping bag at some bench, longkang, bushes)

Here are the pics for Day 1...

Private and Sergeant: where's our camp site?

Clark Kent?!

Superman!!!

Ye Olde Smokehouse @ Cameron Highlands

Private and Sergeant scouting for a suitable camp site... mission failed....

ahhh...... blue sky, green leaves... tea farm @ Cameron Highlands... I actually 'stole' a tea leaf and ate it... the taste.... well... try it out yourself.... hehe...

Blondie was very happy before we start our steamboat feast.... but after the lalat incident... errr... we're all hungry... so... whatever....

Take that Equatorial / Cameron Highlands!

After a terrible night, Omaha still managed to snap a beautiful sunrise @ Cameron Highlands.

Day 2: We decided to go back to Frasier's Hill for our survival camping... our familiar spot. The trip from Cameron Highlands to Frasier's Hill took another 4 hours. Bravo to Greyback! Back-2-Back from Cameron - Frasier's... Outstanding first class performance! Respecto~ :D

Upon reaching our usual camp site, without any hesitation we start setting up our tent and camp fire.

- Choon, RoCkie, Omaha, Blondie - @ Splash Dam (Empangan Sungai Selangor, Kuala Kubu Bahru)

We can set up the tent in no time!~

Day 3: Once we pack everything, we chill out a lil' around the town, have our lunch, then off we go heading back to the usual commotion.

Arrested in Frasier's Hill: was caught stealing tea leaf in Cameron Highlands?

Ready to be executed in Frasier's Hill....

Clock tower @ Frasier's Hill

Proper dinner @ The Curve, after reaching back to PJ... back to square one...

Alot of details are left unmentioned... those are the thrills of adventure on this trip... only the Bojans aware.... Well, somehow we all know that we'll be back to the same old familiar spot again very soon!

Anyway, the funny thing... there's no drizzle throughout the entire trip... we only encounter our drizzle when we reach back PJ.... what a joke! haha....

New Year 2007

Well, there goes 2006 and we are now in 2007.... time... really passes by so fast...

Don't really have mood to write much right now... so I'll just post this few photos and a video clip.

This is our last dinner for 2006. Four seatings, Choon Bojan, Blondie Bojan, Jessica and me. The restaurant is located in one of the shoplots in Kota Kemuning... just a normal Chinese seafood restaurant, nothing fancy. We ordered 4 dishes: a chicken, sotong, vege and a FiSH. The food tasted quite good, chicken and sotong was nice, tHe FiSH very fresh... and there comes the bill.... I was shocked... freaking RM173.20.........!~! What the heck... 4 dishes for 4 person costs RM173.20?!?! .... Apparently the FiSH we ordered.... "顺壳" cost RM120/kg.... we were all shocked and couldn't believe what we just had for dinner.... our last dinner for 2006..... I was abit angry cause felt abit cheated.... hence bargain with the restaurant and price drop down to RM170nett!

After the dinner, we went over to Sunway for the new year countdown with fireworks. We managed to went into Lagoon View Condo and lepak at the pool & playground area until the countdown starts.... 10, 9, 8.... 3, 2, 1...
