Cafe by the Exit
We were done with the flowers and the children had had a field day getting us to by them toys. Next came a bit of respite before the drive home. Great timing as there was a nice little cafe right by the exit.
Ice creams and drinks this time around.
But what caught my eyes were the cute decorations and the furnitures. The theme for the decorations were butterflies, while the furnitures were made from recycled oil drums, painted and turned into chairs and tables. Very neat.
And that came during the time when the national news were dominated by oil drums. One of the Government prosecutor was abducted and his remains was found in an oil drum encased in cement! Gruesome stuff!
After the ice cream was done, it was time to head back to reality. And reality was only a 45-minutes drive away ...
The Strawberry Farm
Compared to when we were there last, the number of trees had definitely at least doubled. The strawberries seemed fresher and there were plenty to choose from. It cost RM8 per 100g which I thought was pretty steep, especially when we had five pickers going rampant like maniacs along the rows of strawberry, armed with scissors and baskets.
It got a bit warm in there towards the end as the sun came out. But I was impressed at how well maintained the whole place was.
Got the strawberries in order in the baskets, got them weighted and then we were off to the next leg - the lavender garden!
