We went to the dimsum shop named 明阁 which been introdcued by 阿贤人情味 before.. well, was my request ;p;p.. there was super crowded and 4 of us have to wait so long for a table, which is big enuf to share with another 2groups (6ppl) of strangers.. haha.. the dimsum just ok.. but i love the 芝麻糊 coz it's really fine and tasty!!

1010am..
Tabao the famous tau-fu-fah and off to Cameron Highlands!! it's so so so soft.. ho jiak!!

dunno wat time..
First, we went the newly opened strawberry farm.. cool cool n windy.. the 1st thing we did was visited the washroom, haha.. very clean :">.. then, we tried the strawberry shake which is delicious (drink it cold n fast)~!! They sell fresh strawbeery and customer is allowed to pick themselves from the strawberry plant.. There sell salad too as many fresh vegetables is planted..



p/s: Foong's new Pentax digicam very cool~.. thin, light, fast processor, VERY good stabilization, big LCD, 7.1 MP, 3x optical zoom... it's really more than enuf for a normal user like me.. considering to get one.. hehe..

Next, we went to market for 'shopping'.. Bought Pearl Sweetcorn for mom and Strawberry for dajie.. Pyng and Er also bought some other vegetables~.. Foong recognized an local actor, but we couldnt recall his name, haha..

The 3rd and last destination was teh 'BOH' tea farm.. we missed the junction n only realised when we went very far from it... 3 of us thought of giving up on that.. but Foong insisted to go back for it.. It's really very far when we find the way up again...

Finally, we got there after asked the direction from a garden cafe's owner.. the last 2km road to tea farm was very narrow and dangerous.. but, it's really no regret to go for it!!!!!!!!!! The scenery is so nice, cozy whether with little rain... the cafe is very classy, a good place for high-tea.. and of course, we helped ourselves with hot tea, sandwich and cakes there.. relax~.. then, bought my favourite camomile teabag at only RM9.90 (25 sachets) and some other flavours such as lemon myrtle, cameronian and strawberry raspberry.. ^^

It was getting late and we have to go since they have to work tmr.. we back to Ipoh town to get 香饼.. too bad the 盐局鸡 was sold out and need another 1 hour for next batch, so we gave it up..

5pm
Bid farewell with Foong and heading back to North..

12 hours trip ended with lots of fun.. Pyng n Er were so steady to meet new fren Foong.. and Thanks Foong for the tour~!! We appreciate your warm hospitality very much~!! Muax~!!
