Two things the Cameron Highlands are famous for are the jungle/ rainforest walks and the tea plantations. We bought a map and began exploring.

Still Crazy

We both travelled and worked in Spain, which is where we first met, back in 1971. Things back then were quite different, no plastic card banking or internet to smooth the way. Our travels were put on hold for a few years whilst we brought up our two children. They now spend large chunks of their life exploring the world. In in our mid to late 50's we decided it was time we took up travelling again and this time write our own travel blog. Hope it can compete with the younger generations.

Thanks for the memories...
I understand that the Eastern Hotel, where I used to go to school, was demolished and replaced by the Century Pines Resort. Could you post a picture of it on your next blog?

I'll add a photo of the Century pines to the end of this blog as we've finished here now. It's raining right now but we'll dodge out in between showers and take it so give me a day before checking. The smoke house is still here but we didn't get to it to take a photo and probably won't now, it's a good hour's walk away.Not sure about the Cameron Highlands hotel,there are lots with similar sounding names. The only golf course is the one near Bringchang. Anyway glad we can bring back memories to you

Thanks for sharing!
your pics reminded me of how much I enjoyed walking in the tea plantation around Cameron Highlands a few years ago! Good life! I remember a small bakery that served delicious blueberry pies... overlooking the tea fields! sigh... Enjoy!
