I booked on the 'Countryside Tour' for Friday morning which meant no lie-in for me. Wanting to beat the rush to breakfast I got up with plenty of time to spare and had a leisurely meal in the café. The tour left Father's at 9 o'clock and headed for the Sam Poh Temple in Brinchang. It was very visitor friendly, allowing us to take photos and explore the various rooms of worship at our leisure. Many golden statues decorated the temple with Chinese looking dragon...

I got up on Thursday morning, made myself a quick breakfast and finished packing up all my stuff. I caught a taxi from outside the apartment and waved goodbye to Fairoz, with a promise to visit next week. I then spent the next 40 minutes in chock-a-block traffic, as we tried to make our way to the bus station. Luckily I had left plenty of time and I arrived at 9 o'clock to pick up my reserved ticket for 9.30. At 10 we finally set off for the Cameron Highland...

Opting for a less conv...

Enjoying the opportunity to sleep in we started moving at 9 on Saturday and went out to find some breakfast. We found it a short walk along the river at Momma's Cafe where we treated ourselves to toast, eggs, sausage and beans. Continuing along the river we crossed it into the city centre and visited the numerous museums dotted around. From the customs museum, housing illegal items that had attempted to be smuggled into the country, to the maritime museum with ...
