(PART 2) A Short Getaway to Cameron Highlands, Pahang.

Following from the previous post, we continued our journey to the Boh Tea Centre at Sungai Palas! Took almost an hour just to reach that place due to the slow traffic but totally worth it.

 
Breathtaking scenery on the way to the tea centre.

Wanted to take the tea tour, unfortunately, there are no tours during public holidays. :( Nonetheless, managed to literally yum cha at such a great place! 

Strawberry cheesecake, chocolate cake and scone (somewhere behind there! The pastries tasted quite good.
 
Tea set. The cups were rather unpleasant looking as there were cracks here and there. However, the tea was quite good too, just like the pastries!

Managed to grab a table at the corner and of course... must take selfies lah! Heh, don't wanna bore you guys with my face so I shall just post the best one here. :p
Us with the beautiful background. :)

As it was getting pretty late because we overslept after our early breakfast and checked out of the hotel in the afternoon, we decided to go back to KL using the newer highway which will pass by Ipoh. On the way down, managed to visit one last attraction - Lavender Garden. Entrance fee was RM 5 per person, and as expected, not worth it. They have tons of flowers there, but not the lavenders that I wanted to see. :(

Apparently, they do sell Lavender-flavoured ice-cream so of course, must buy lor.
RM 5 for this ice-cream.

Don't be fooled by the flowers in purple. They are NOT lavenders. But I still think the flowers are really pretty. 

Conclusion? It was good to leave the city for a while and spend time together. If you've not been to Cameron Highlands, please visit it and I think the best part of the trip is still the market and steamboat sessions. :p
