Fraser's Hill Nov 2010

It was Alex's idea to have a get-away during his birthday weekend. A few suggestions did come up and in the end, for reasons forgotten, Fraser's Hill was chosen. I was all for it as I had fond memories of that place. Prefer it to Genting and Cameron as a place to relax.

So the 7 of us set off late morning on Saturday in two cars and stayed there till 2pm Sunday. Ban and I fetched Janvier, who had much difficulty in waking up (slept late due to pain from mouth ulcer) and then due to wrong coordinates, we ended a little lost. Luckily we saw the other car passed by us from the opposite direction. The irony is that iPhone has no reception while good old fashion handphone worked ok.

I still remember that the coffeeshop is at the border of Selangor and Pahang but most of Fraser's Hill lies within Pahang. It's only later on I was reminded by my parents that the coffeeshop is owned by a relative. Oooh. It was closed though.

FH Cicely

We stayed at a bungalow formerly called Cicely. For its current name, please look it up on the net. The birthday boy banned us from using its current name :)

FH Cicely rooms

In the house, there were 3 bedrooms, including 1 master bedroom. Structure was similar within each room: 2 sofa opposite the bed, wardrobe on the far wall, door to a spacious room with nothing but a sink and mirror (it's strange) and then further in was the bathroom/toilet which was on a lower ground. Interesting.

FH Misc

Some interesting points:
  • There was a fire hydrant in the niddle of the lane. So dangerous, especially at night with few lamplights.
  • Impatiens flowers?
  • Freestyle Jenga! Look carefully at the horizontally placed block at the bottom left. It's not leaning on the right block.
  • The dam was further down from Fraser's Hill. Ominous clouds with large dam. Scary.
  • The birthday boy's leaning chocoloate cake! Glad he was happy and pleased with his gifts.

So, you think we all should have stayed a second night?

Janvier,
I believed if we have gotten there before lunch and depart a little later the next day, it would be better.

Sis,
If bring your kids, need to create your own entertainment :) Also, do you remember the horrendous winding road to Fraser's Hill? :)

The dam looks interesting.

No mention of the mousey! :)

Impatiens are annuals here, which means they have to be replanted annually. They come in several vibrant colors. Very nice.
Finally found time to catch up, so I'm commenting on some old stuff. SR
