Just came back from Cameron Highland. Haven't been up there for quite some time, notice a lot of developments going on and wonder whether our Mother Earth is able to survive all that construction work. The weather seems not as cold as before (a few years back) even in the morning at 10am.
I was here in this Boh tea farm about 7 yrs ago and I can't remember there's this tea shop with so many tourists!! The queue to get a cup of tea is so long!! We had no chance to sip some tea and have some bread. But well..we were going to have our own English tea and scones soon. :D Anyway, it's worth the drive and climb because the scenery was superb! :D The tea farm is so pretty and perfect for a wedding photo shoot. The only turn down was the haze. Otherwise my photo will have the right sunlight.
Came up here for a weekend getaway with my cell members. We stayed at Crown Imperial Court. An apartment can fit in 10 ppl. But we were more than 20 people and so, some had to sleep on the sofa and sleeping bags. Although slightly lack of sleep, we had so much fun together, laughing at each other jokes, having barbequed scones with cream and strawberries (we don't have an oven, just bbq grill) and english tea (brought all the way from the UK), steamboat (we brought our own fish balls and meat from Ipoh), and a lot of good food around there.
This was my first time making scones.. Acelin helped me with the dough making. We put too much milk and it became too sticky. Added more flour in. Luckily, it wasn't too dry and the taste turned out ok. Just slightly burnt at the bottom. Will try again at home using the right temperature and oven next time. ;)
Bought some super delicious strawberries. :-)
Love these hydrangea flowers. Would love to have them in my house garden next time. :D
Of course the most important thing is to have fellowship and strengthen our friendship bonding and to learn to be more obedient disciples of Christ. There were time for fun and time for worship and bible study. Although sleep was not enough, we had a great time together away from the hustle bustle of the city life and enjoyed the green scenery.
By the way, I saw these flowers that would be wonderful to decorate the wedding hall. :D Well, that is if they would have been cheaper and easier to transport to Ipoh...
