The room is clean but the area have got mosquitos... The hotel provides mosquito repellant but we are not aware of it... It was placed in the cupboard, I only found out on the day when we check out of the hotel... I had myself attacked by the Mosquitos... >.<

We having coffee at Bistro Godiva cafe...

Fireworks during our dinner @ Turi Beach...

Teppanyaki dinner @ Turi Beach Resort... The taste is not that fantastic but not too bad... Most of their food will comes with lots of orions and garlic... >.<

Prices are not steep, still acceptable for a restaurant in a resort...

There are shuttle bus from the resort to the shopping area... But there are only 1 bus per day and the unfriendly counter staff had given us the wrong information... In the end, we took a cab instead... It is a 45minutes drive from resort to the shopping area...




Massage at the resort it's around the price where I can get it in Singapore... We ended up going down town to enjoy our cheap massage instead...

Trip to Cameron Highlands

Road Trip to Cameron Highlands (Day 1)

We drove up to Cameron Highlands by car... We stopped at one of the petrol station on our way along north south highway... I saw a doraemon board outside the petrol station... We went to their market and found them selling lots of corn and strawberries which tastes great...

Directions:
From Singapore, there are 3 main ways to reach the Cameron Highlands that starts from the North South Highway.
Exit Tapah Town, follow a narrow trunk road that cuts through a lush mountain range for about 40km up to ringlet, the first town of Cameron.

Very old cars found at the petrol stations... 

The corns at Cameron Highlands were very sweet...
