Staycation @ Fraser's Hill 2019

Hello everyone! Its August already, the month full of celebrations and merdeka mood. This aidil adha time around upon Mak's request, we went for a short staycation to Fraser's Hill. And to be honest it was my first time there. Hehehe.

 Fraser's Hill is actually a heritage spot with a lot of British Colonial Houses/Bungalows around now became a small township with only around 500 people actually staying here. Others were like us, the people coming for a short stay. However, the township is quite complete with a police station, schools, masjid, clinic and even a post office. 

It is really a place for nature lovers seeking for a peaceful and breezy cold getaway. Located only 2hours drive via Rasa/KKB route, the windy roads uphill was really an adventure on its own, and a lovely green sigjht for forest dwellers. There are quite few nice spots we visited on our stay there. alhmdulillah everything went well and i had a relieve for my stressful past month working.

Still in holiday mood , tho..let the pictures talk for themselves.

We went for some strawberry hunting and ended up there is only one place selling and planting strawberries up there.haha

5 guys and 5 girls.heheh

The icon of the small town

We took the road not taken climbing up Jeriau Waterfalls. Its was really a nice walk into the woods. Cantik! lama tak masuk hutan

Public park down hill

The morning me and hubs went for a nasi lemak hunt

Food stalls and shops are around but very limited.Therefore quite expensive. For me, let it be that way rather than being too commercialized like Cameron Highlands. Let the greens and the calmness offered be there for those loving the calmness and appreciate nature 

At one of the planting homes, giant Hibiscus!

And one for the album!

So till then Fraser's Hill, we had a splendid time enjoying our coffee on the cold morning balcony, and freezing night here. We spend our night in the Silver Park Resort Homestay from AirBNB. It was really a cozy house, I'll try to write about it soon, perhaps..

Till then we meet again inshallah! :)

Bye bye !

Rumah Nostalgia Daddy & Cameron Highlands 2019

Gambar gambar didepan rumah nostalgia. Wajib ambil disini setiap tahun. Kita tepek sini buat kenangan :)

Masa otw balik dari klate tu kami sempat singgah singgah Cameron. Saja saja ambil angin lama tak nginggah sini. Tempat cenggini mommylah yg suka. Sejuk nyaman hijau.. Ha gitulah. Segar sikit rasa hati..tetiba. Tgh byk kerja ni kita up sikit gambar gamabr sebulan lepas di cameron kasi bg rasa feel sikit nak kerja. 

Kerja biar lah lebih. Penat and berkat tu lah yg membahagiakan. Ingat je Allah tu Maha Adil. Dia tahu apa yg kita buat. Gaji juta juta pun belum tentu bahagia

Hero Malaya

Hero malaya no 2.. kemain lagii :)

K uols..
Nanti kita update lagi..!
Bulan kemerdekaan dh ni..weekend ni pun dh raya haji..seronok tgk rmai kwn kwn muda muda sudah menunaikan haji :)


Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Adha in advance semua!!

#teamrayakl raya kedua ketiga 1440

Assalam semua! 

Lama cerita bertangguh..siap ada post dh sampai UK pun..hahaha.. Takpe janji ada dari tak adaa..kita sambung cerita raya yg dah terperuk dlm drafts..

Ini cerita raya kedua pula :) Kami pulun open house dirumah kami ajak sedara mara mai raya :) Special menu bihun sup soto tulang and ketupat rendang+kari ayam of course. Alhmdulillah sempat bergearbox and ber bergedil pagi pagi tu..hasil kerahan tenaga semua org. haha..Siap semua kita enjoy!!!!

Ada org happy dpt gearbox! Sedapkan bosskurr.. :)

Malam tu selepas semua tetamu balik and kami bye bye zakiyya and family fly balik ke JB..kami pun gerak ke Bukit Merah. Jem dia boleh tahan juga Highway PLUS memalam raya ketiga tu. Perjalanan ambil masa 9pm-4am..


Alhmdulillah selamat sampai pg subuh subuh di Bukit Merah. Ambil kesempatan pg tu berehat rehat dan mengemas apa yang patut dirumah yang dah lama ditinggalkan. Sebenarnya rumah ni kami plan utk sewakan homestay, tapi tak berapa menjadi homestay sebab maybe belum bersungguh nak menjana income dari sini dan faktor lokasinya yang agak jauh untuk kami pantau. Maka jadi rumah persinggahan ajelah gamaknya. Datang pun setahun sekali,,kalau berkesempatan dua kali..hehe

Our small family ready for a roadtrip to Kelate!

PPagi ni kami santai santai sahaja. sebabnya lepas zuhur dah nak mulakan perjalanan ke... KELANTAN!! Heheheh.. balik juga kelantan raya kali ni :)

Perjalanan ke Kelantan agak jauh juga sebab kami lalu jalan dlm melalui Selama-Lenggong ke Gerik. Kereta berderet tp masih bergerak lah, beramai ramai di jalanraya. Kali ni kami disambut oleh seekor gajah liar ditepi highway :) Hehehe.

Gerik's landmark ditepi jalan :)

. Then kita singgah kejap solat and refresh di Port wajib singgah di Titiwangsa Peak! Masa ni dok bengang dgn Umobile sebab sikit pun takde line. Terus hilang communication dgn kereta mereka ni..huhu. kenangan..

10pm barulah sampai rumah mama di Pasirmas! Berapa jam kalau ikutkan tu. Tapi biasalah pemanduan santai sambil banyak singgah singgah solat makan dsb!Mama masakkan macam macam dh malam tu utk kami. Kami tidur pasirmas, mak, bapak and Ali bersinggahan di Hotel Grand Riverview KB.

Pagi raya ke-4 kita berziarah mereka mereka yang dah mendahului kita. Daddy seperti biasa wajib menziarahi nenda tercinta yang meninggal dunia Ramadhan thn lepas. Sebak sentiasa terkenangkan arwah yang byk berjasa kepada dia. Nenek kesayangan..alhmdulillah saya pun berkesempatan mencuit kasih sedikit merasa tempias nya..

Tengahari sikit kita berkonvoi beraya dirumah sanak saudara sekitar KB dan kampung mak di Machang.

Alhmdulillah updated! Such a accomplishment you know! Nanti kita tulis tulis lagi. Inshallah satu hari nanti boleh buka. Anak anak or my anak anak saudara boleh baca and tahu dulu cerita mommy gini gitu. ha gittheww.. It was really nice to have long distance journeys with the family. it is actually our family tradition to go around Malaysia visiting houses during raya. And alhmdulillah raya 1440 we still had the opportunity to do so :)

Till then!
See you next raya!! Raya haji ke raya cina ke..tak tau lagi tu
