Yes, it's Cameron Highlands again - Part 1

(16-18 Feb 2009)

Hi, let's have a picture post.
This super cool guy drove us up to Cameron's this time.
Cheryl, a new addition to the lab.
Junie at our place, our ever useful Cameronian friend who helped us out with lodgings and all our pleas *ngiekz* Thanks for everything you've done/you're doing/you're about to do for us.
I was bored, so I snapped some pictures of this odd plant at the apartment's balcony. RM170 a night for a nice, cozy 3-roomed apartment in Tanah Rata, not so bad right?
They thought they had me locked out in the balcony.
Yup, it had Astro.
*click*
Garlic Break... Garlic Berak
Nice place to eat at, had two meals there with Dr. Cathy & co in the last trip.
Where we had our first meal this time. Nothing to shout about, but pass-able
Ol' lovely Mount Irau trail's beginning =)
Hutan Simpan Mossy
This was actually taken from real far away with the super zoom-age again, I likey =D
Scenery
yrenecS
Secneyr
Kien-oh-P Canopy
The forest's secret penis. An unopened Pitcher plant.





=_=
Made a creepy green with the camera settings =D Entrance to the Irau trail.
normal lighting
A plantI should work on minimizing the shadows -_-
The hike (and the dude that was running out of breath)
Bola fungi
A species of euphorbia; Cheryl's studyin them.
Same one
Tse Yuen's obsession: mushrooms
The heart-shaped leaf that captured our hearts; just Cheryl's actually.
More of the hike
You won't die of hunger in the forest.. dying of poison's a whole different thing though
*munch*
*nyum nyum nyum*
Bulbous plants
The same Ol' Mossy Man
Too dark -_-
On our way out
The entrance to a different realm
Another of Tse Yuen's mushroom fantasies.
The I-dunno-whats
Scientists at work
The too bright picture that I kinda like. My car looking innocent at the corner.
Insex
Stimulating boat. Steamboat

Here's a series of emulate-Michelle pictures
Where's dino?
Someone find Dino...
Roar
Found Dino yet?

He's there somewhere..
You've gotta at least noticed a glimpse of him by now..
Dino the T-rex, Roar!
Hear me roar!
*dead silence
*
I like messing with the camera settings =D
"Dino's got a gun..." (Sing to "Janie's got a Gun" by Aerosmith)
"Dino's just begun.. and everybody, is on the run"
Spyin on the happy girls
Cheryl in Sepia
We learnt the game 'Bridge', which was fun and annoying when you can't guess your partner (or forgot what card you called for your partner - Yes, I was guilty of both)
I was bored.
Boredom..
.. Leads..
.. to..
.. Whoredom.
While Yum-ing char at a mamak, I tried to draw a star by lengthening the exposure time of the camera. Hmmm..
This was as close as I got. I shall not show you the... less successful shots.
*blush*
Meriam...
"When the night, has come..
and the lan land is dark,
and the moon, is the only,
light you'll see"


More to come =)

oh really?? yikes, who would've thought the seed of Lee spread so far and wide. hahaha, it was a super efficient place with pretty good food, albeit the potong-stim-age by some smokers who clouded the place up a bit
