When I KL a few years ago, I had a choice of going to Melaka or Cameron Highlands for a couple of days. Looks like I made the wrong choice.... Mark Hs last blog post..Reindeer Paté, Cloudberry Pie and Sweat (Kuopio, Finland)

I believe that it's more accessible now. Hmm, wonder if there is a chance if I can visit this highland again if I am in Ipoh. I guess it depends on luck also, eg. bad weather(like Hong Kong typhoon!) But every trip definitely is an experience gained. I still have good memories of the place, only the journey is far for me... Thanks for sharing... feeling nostalgic now! eunices last blog post..Mid-Autumn Festival (Part 2/2)

Hi Eunice,

It’s sad to know that those landslides occurred in Cameron Highlands years ago actually turned you off. It is more under control now. There is now a better, wider, easier to drive access road to the highland via the ‘back’ of it from Simpang Pulai, Ipoh, if you know where I meant. If you still remember that you had to passed through the waterfall, Ringlet before you reached Tanah Rata and stopped at the end of Brinchang where there was the dead end. Now you can continue driving down, passing through the new tea plantation, cactus farm, restaurants and back to Ipoh! It’s easier if not nearer…

Your first time experience to Cameron Highlands actually reminded me of one philosophy: Always Try the best that you can afford when you are trying it for the first time. Bad first time experience could turn you off the actually best thing in this world…

We went Cameron Highlands 10 years ago!! Three of us went there together on ourselves. My parents didn't know I also visited Cameron cos I did it discreetly as they discouraged me to go due to some bad landslides during the monsoon season during Dec! =P Indeed, we saw a big tree being uprooted and some landslides just occurred when our bus was moving along the narrow road. We also went hiking in the forest but turned back when we need to cross over a big log obstructing our tiny path. Any accidental slip would send us down the cliff! Love the highlands, but have not been there since then, cos I don't like to go through 600 over road bends again.. Or is it easier to reach there now? eunices last blog post..Mid-Autumn Festival (Part 2/2)
