Garden of Flowers

I admit to feeling stress lately with work...,

..it started early of the year and some time between end March and early April I guess I reached the height of it that I went to see a doctor as I was worried about my health.

Alhamdulillah it was not that bad...BP and sugar level ok..she said I just "need to take things easy and don't think too much". :-) ...,

but I really needed to get away for a while...and by chance my niece mentioned that strawberries at Cameron Highlands were in good season.

haha...that clinched it..I took 2 days leave and with my sister we drove up there.

But for this posting, I'm sharing the photos taken at the garden of flowers, located within the Agro Technology Park (MARDI) at Tanah Rata.

How soothing to see the lovely flowers....indeed a good therapy.

Have a lovely weekend to all my blogger friends.

Wordless : morning @ Tioman Island beach

:-)

Tioman option : snorkeling

On the 3rd day in Tioman Island, some friends opted to go snorkeling whilst I joined the second group and visited one of the snorkeling sites, by car...hehehe..

(n for future reference, one friend left behind at the chalet as she wanted to rest before taking off ~ she went back a day early. But last week she was back in Tioman Island for diving, and came back with lovely video and photos).

Here are some photos taken from the jetty..it looked quite easy...I might try that one day, (and in case my diving friends are reading this ~ I "MIGHT"...hahaha...)

For the above photos and more, here's the pictures slide:

Tioman : of rocks and water

Continuing with the trekking (earlier post [here]), and into our third phase to reach the waterfall area (if I'm not mistaken its called "Lalang Waterfall").

Some photos I managed to snap ~ not really artistic..,

what could I expect.....it was tough multitasking after all.....hehehe...

We finally stopped at the pool area where some friends, after group photos taken by our guide, quickly changed into proper attires (and banned the guide from the area for the next one hour...hahahaha)

But this was the extent of my "testing" the water :

and this..

hehehehe....

The simple picnic before our trip back, were quite hungry by then :-D

:-)

p/s ~ I slipped on the way down, had a slight back muscle strain that a week after we came back I went to a Reflexologist for massage...

I'll steer clear of trekking or rough activities for now..haha
