the cameron n pulau ketam adventures !

As sum of u noe ,i juz came bak from kl juz last week .i was pretty sad coz the holidays r gonna b over n skuls reopenin again .oh wth ,bak at home means i can finally blog again lol .well here i am to tell u of my vacations around peninsula malaysia .basically besides going kl i oso went to camerons n pulau ketam (crab island) .the trip to camerons was wonderful 4 wat i can tell .we took the way from simpang pulai which is sumwher near ipoh rite on to camerons .the trip was actually quite pleasant as the roads is not as winding as the old 1 (tapah) .the air ther was fresh n chilly though sum part of camerons such as the towns might sumtimes hav bad air conditions due to the used of vehicles .

while we were ther ,we went to the boh tea plantation ,bea farm n oso the butterfly farm .we even had morning walks n exercises which was a reli diff experience from excercising in ipoh or kl which is blazing hot !overall we reli enjoyed our stay ther though our apartment was practically facing a graveyard .though 1 nite i heard strange noises emitting from the direction of wher the lil cemetary was located .i was actually half asleep so i couldnt diff wether its 'those' noises of it was juz the morning prayers .

the trip bak to kl was a reli a killer .we took the tapah road instead dis time n it was so winding til sum of us almost vomited .nonetheless its much faster den takin the the 1 bak to simpang pulai or practically ipoh if ur goingbak to kl .on our way downhill ,we stoped by a waterfall .the water ther is absolutely wonderful .after spending half n hour refreshing den we continued our journey decending mount cameron .

the trip to pulau ketam aka crab island can b considered ok .though thers nth much to do ther besides eating famous pulau ketam crabs .from my aunts house which is located near a ktm station ,we took a train to kl central n from ther we chg trains n went directly to port klang .n from ther we took a ferry which wil head for pulau ketam .the ferry was so crammed dat most of us had to stand or sit on the floor .during the ferry ride i actually remembered a few cases relating to ferries dat actually crashed or sinked coz of overcrowding lol ,but luckily we manage to get out in 1 piece .

pulau ketam its actually a small island but it looks more like a lil fishing village on stilts located on a small piece of land of the coast of port klang 2 me .the island is so small dat onli bicycles r allowed .sumtimes u might see 1 or 2 motorbikes but its very rare .the island wuld make a nice place to stay if not 4 the dirtyness .the water ther is quite poluted n they say dat the toilets ther actually flushes rite into the sea .if its true den probably we r eatin crabs filled wif feaces lol .

well i made a slideshow 4 u guys 2 see but unfortunately i din get to snap any pics of pulau ketam as i hav forgetten to bring my camera .so enjoy watching n do comment my photos ;)
