Post Holiday Blues

By Allan Yap & Nigel A. Skelchy

Had a wonderful 5 days up in Cameron Highlands.

It was just absolutely lovely to enjoy some cool weather, wake up feeling cold in the morning and just spend your days hiking, cooking, playing mahjong and loving your loved ones. :-)

Oh yes, hiking...

Actually, climbed up - in parts on all fours - one of the higher peaks of the Tahan Range called Jasar Mountain. All 1,700m of it.

OK, so it's sentimental but it was a much needed "stop and smell the roses" moment.

The Bungalow was gorgeous, set in about 2 acres of lands and beautiful landscaped gardens full of Cymbidium orchids, snap dragons, Goldenrods, Chrysanthemums, Calla Lillies, you name it. There was a snap to the air and it brought back a spring to your step.

In a way, I'm glad we're back. It leaves me looking forward to the next time we go.
