A Nice Morning

We slept well last night with the cool weather outside. However it wasn't foggy as with the last visit we had. We hang around at the TV lounge watching movie until almost 10.30, before heading back to the room. The boys then played with their game console until late before falling asleep, only to wake up close to 9 am in time for breakfast.

As we were practically the only ones at the resort, we took breakfast a out leisure before sitting at the lounge again all morning. The boys were yet to have their shower when I wrote this. The plan was to head into the town for lunch. We were craving for some rice actually. The boys wanted to have a horse ride, then play a bit of golf. Hopefully the weather would allow for that. It had been sunny all morning.

I also spent the morning exploring the house taking photos. It was so cosy, especially the surrounding area. Plenty of room to venture for walks, and just plain relaxing ....

Rainy Afternoon

It had been raining pretty much all afternoon and with the Smokehouse empty, we got the place to ourselves and the boys were having a field day. I was at the lounge enjoying the Internet - a ft one since I was the only one using it - while the boys were creating havoc by the bar.

The rain also meant that we had our afternoon tea and scones indoors rather than by the garden. With the cool mountain air and sweet smell of grass after the rain, one couldn't resist having a walk outside later.

We would be staying in for dinner tonight rather than going out. A nice chilly evening I hope.

Afternoon Drive

We ended up having lunch at Scott's restaurant. But the wait was ridiculously long. It took us an hour for our food to be ready. Luckily, the boys were chirpy and spent the whole time playing with their Nintendo. Anita was almost taking a nap at such the slow pace of the place. The weather was cool and things were easy going.

After finishing lunch, we dropped my in-laws at their room and went out for a drive. This time we stopped for miniature golf. It was situated at a new food court and appeared well maintained. We planned to have lunch there tomorrow, hoping that the crowd would be lighter compared to today.

It soon rained, and we rushed back to apartment. Now off for some scones ....

Waiting For Lunch

After the hearty breakfast this morning, we entires out to explore the town. Being Sunday, the place was full. Some cyclers, an maybe those from KL coming here for a day trip. The place was heaving.

Finally, it was time for lunch and we decided to go to Scott's Restaurant where the previous Manager at Smokehouse during our last stay is now managing there. The restaurant is under the same management with Smokehouse apparently.

It was still before noon and the restaurant is only open at 12. Time for a quick drink at Puncak Inn next door.

Settling In

We finally settled into our hotel for the weekend after a rough drive up the hill. A fully loaded Estima with a couple of screaming kids at the back! By the time we reached the top, both of them were fast asleep, which was a blessing. But unfortunately, they mustered the energy to cause havoc all night!

Dinner was nice - we had it at the hotel. But compared to what it was a couple of years ago, it was much better back then. The rooms at Ye Olde Smokehouse had gone some internal renovations, sim pretty much of the utilities were new. We booked a room with a bunker bed - and I think you'd figured out by now who would be using that. It was a nice cosy suite, right net to the main hall. So going for dinner and breakfast was just practically outside our door.

As the hotel just managed to sort out the wifi, I only just managed to blog. The Edge signals were pretty sketchy, so, I would be at the mercy of the wifi network. Will blog later ....
