Cameron Highlands (Malaysia)

The rainforest was dense on the way to Cameron Highlands - it's a 2 1/2 hours drive from Kuala Lumpur.

We stayed at the beautiful Lakehouse (www.lakehouse-cameron.com)...



The view from our room (above) and from the terrace (below) was great and it was much cooler than in Kuala Lumpur - approximately 24 degrees Celsius.

We drove around to other areas of the Highlands, but in the end we had breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea (with scones!!) at the Lakehouse!



In the afternoon we visited the largest tea plantation in the area, the BOH plantation and its factory with nice views of the tea hills.









The next day we set out for a hike through the jungle with our guide Raja.

Bali

A week after the wedding in Singapore, we spent some very relaxing 5 days with Valerie, Björn and other friends / family in Bali.

The Watergarden Resort

We stayed at the Watergarden Resort in Candidasa (www.watergardenhotel.com), in East Bali. The following pictures are taken at the Watergarden and at the beach across the road. This is the 'veranda' of our villa.


Our very hungry 'neighbours' waiting...

... for us to feed them with the rest of our breakfast!

Ubud

On our trip to Ubud we passed by lots of rice fields where children were playing with kites.

In Ubud...


Coffee / fruit juices with Björn, Valerie, Milivoi and Barbara.





Kintamani

The following day we visited Kintamani, in the centre of the Island, passing more rice paddies, mountains and lakes...









We finished our Bali visit with a day at the beach (White Sand Beach) before we headed back home.
