Hmmmm, this blogger has changed!!  Where's the title?  Where's the box for the tags?
Nevermind.

APRIL 2012
Our highlight of the month was a trip up to Cameron Highlands in Malaysia.
I drove.  Stopped halfway for a rest at our favourite hotel Holiday Inn Glenmarie.  What I like about this place is the beautiful view out of the full-height room windows - the golf course.  The rooms are really quite spacious, clean and very comfy indeed.
The food at the golf club has gone down in quality with the addition of the air conditioned section :(.
The drive up to Camerons was uneventful except for the heavy rain which sent torrents of water pouring down from the hillsides.  The kids were enthralled by these 'waterfalls', but I, as driver, was very stressed.

The OMF Bungalow was beautifully set on a hill, overlooking the town of Brinchang. I'll let the photos speak...





Needless to say, the children had a blast.  We met several missionaries on break.  It was a very refreshing time of sharing with the missionaries.  It opened our eyes to the real life and work of a missionary.  What a blessing!

On the way home to Singapore, we stopped the night again in Glenmarie.  This time, with Fiona and family.  Kam Loon decided he'd drive to Subang Jaya to have dinner.  But alas, we got sooo lost.  We spent almost 45 mins finding our way there, when it should have taken us just 5 mins.  On the way back too, same thing.  We should have asked the hotel staff for directions before we set off.  Maybe next time, we'll take the shuttle bus into town, and grab a taxi back.
