It’s weekend again !
Crys is feeling lazy today. Crys doesn’t want to have much movement for today. Well, if you are interested to know why, it all began with us (wawax, kakax, angelx & lulux) having supper in KFC on Friday night. While planning on what to do for the next weekend, wawax suggested that we go to the Malaysia Agriculture Park, also known as the Taman Pertanian Malaysia (TPM). And crys asked, ‘Why not this Saturday?’. Therefore, we went to the Agriculture Park yesterday. And that explains why crys is feeling lazy today. D:
We were told that the Agriculture Park will be opened at 8 am sharp. The bicycles for renting are very limited and we are supposed to be there early in order to get one. Therefore, we arrived at the Agriculture Park at 8.00 am. However, it’s written at the entrance that the park will only be opened at 9.00 am. Lol. We spent about an hour having ‘Nasi Lemak’ as breakfast and blaming-the-person-who-gave-us-wrong-information was our table topic. :P
The entrance fee was RM 5 per adult. The bicycle renting store was just a few steps away from the entrance. We were able to get ourselves a bicycle each, of course, since we went there an hour earlier. ._____.
Things to do when you rent a bicycle:
1. Check if the tyres have enough air in it.
2. Ensure the bicycle brakes are working.
You never want to go down a steep downhill and notice that there’s no brake, right? :)
3. Set the seat to an appropriate level according to your height.
There we are, posing with our bicycle at the starting point. :)
Kakax, wawax, crys and loong gor. :D
Crys was looking weird.
._____.
Oh ya ! Crys actually wore a T-shirt and a pair of jeans to the Agriculture Park. ._____. The reason why crys picked jeans instead of shorts was because crys doesn’t want to get mosquito bites and jeans are the only long pants crys had. Besides, it helped to avoid getting darker skin. :D However, wearing jeans while cycling just doesn’t feel right. D: This was all because crys doesn’t have a proper sports attire. D: Crys should really go get one soon. x.x
A quick camwhore when crys is still looking fresh. :P
Meet crys’s shadow ! :D
Crys looks fat. T.T
Camwhore with the sun~
The effect didn’t came out as nice as the last time. D:
The picture was too dark as compared to the previous one crys took in Raub.
:(
But this picture below looks okay.
:)
Crys with the ‘peace’ pose.
Had no idea what to do with the hands while taking picture.
It’s so seldom that crys wasn’t the one who’s holding the camera.
Lol !
Meet the 2 tall trees.
1 Leafy and 1 is not. D:
And we chose to take picture with the one which is not leafy. D:
Loong gor and crys getting ready to pose.
* * * * *
'Hug the tree’
‘Yerr ! the tree skin looks scary !’
‘And there are bugs !’
* * * * *
And so, we took this photo.
If you noticed, crys didn’t really touch the tree.
LOL !
This is us !
posing with the Tropical Fruit Garden and the cute fruits !
Crys’s favourite group photo of the day. :)
because it’s so colourful ~ ! ^^v
Next up !
It’s the Cactus Garden ! :D
It does feel like a desert there.
Hot and dry.
Because there were no trees around the cactus garden.
Cactus garden means you’ll see…
Thorny plants ! :D
Warning: Do not touch them ! >:(
Wawax posing on top of a ‘mountain’.
Crys posing with the ‘river’.
Lol.
Crys and someone-who-wished-to-not-mention-his-name-here posing with the huge cactus. :)
As far as crys could remember,
crys would always see this kind of cactus in the Road Runner cartoon. :P
Riding a bicycle in the Agriculture Park was like going through a life’s journey. There were up’s and down’s in your path. When you’re struggling to cycle uphill, always remember there’s a downhill in front of you. Never give up. Because if you do, you can never experience the relaxing moment when you go down the slope. On the other hand, when you’re enjoying the downhill, never expect it to be that way forever, because there’s always an end to anything. Life comes in a cycle. You will be meeting uphill's and downhill's throughout your journey. It’s just the matter of time that which comes first.
Oh by the way,
you can always ask for help. :P
3 guys and 4 bicycles, why?
Because crys was all exhausted and doesn’t have the energy to push the bicycle up the slope anymore.
Therefore, wawax and kakax took turns to push the bicycle for crys.
LOL !
Thank you ! ^^v
The favourite thing crys liked about the Agriculture Park was the Four Season Temperate House. The Four Season Temperate House is a place where we get to see 4 different seasons that we couldn’t experience in Malaysia. The workers change its season every 3 months:
Winter
December - February
Spring
March - May
Summer
June - August
Autumn
September - November.
However, the saddest thing about the trip was, we couldn’t go to the four season temperate house on that day. :( It was closed in order to change the decorations and settings from Winter to Spring, which wasn’t disclosed in the website. Crys felt like crys was being cheated. D: Crys should go in January, April, July and October next time in order to avoid this kind of happenings again. >_<
Our next station was a 4-storeys watchtower
in the Mushroom Garden near the pond.
Crys taking picture of kakax, wawax and loong gor.
And…
The other way round. XD
Loving the sunshine. :P
We climbed up to the 3rd Floor of the 4-storeys wooden watchtower.
And this was what we get.
A view of the pond and greeneries.
What a nice view. :)
Crys will definitely come back some other day.
Instead of feeling sad for not being able to visit the Four Season Temperate House,
we should be grateful that it didn't rain on that day. :)
