On the way to Gopeng, we stopped at Tualang and had a delicious and SATIATING lunch. To me that was a gastronomical adventure  not to be missed .All I can said was "yummyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy".  We had -  hugefresh water prawns, fish, crabs, ho chien, kampung chicken, and many more..

Emily, good recommendation !!

Photos as below.

Happily posting and waiting at the lunch table











 After lunch, we continued  our journey to our destination -  "Adeline's Resthouse" . We reached Gopeng at a 1pm. As the "kampung road" was too narrow for the bus to proceed , we were transported by 2 lorries to the Adeline's Resthouse . That was a whale of an experience . It was liked taking a roller coaster ride albeit on uneven road . Of course , our  urbane ladies screamed all the way . Some screamed just for the heck of it. After all we don't often get opportunities like this one . The lorry ride was fun and really enjoyable.

Upon reaching and checking into "Adeline's Resthouse", we went to our waterfall picnic. The waterfall was so cold and refreshing. At the first dip  into the cool and refreshing water, I had an immense feeling of freedom . I felt I wanted " to break free" . Some  of ladies, took advantage of Spa-like environment that the waterfall  offered , they had a good body scrub with the natural sand at the waterfall.  The result - they were all  "Snowy White" after the natural sand scrubbed.

Crystal TMC Meeting Keynotes 26th May 2014

Image
“LET IT GO…………………LET IT GO…………………” In life, sometimes we harbour bitter and unpleasant feelings about someone or a disagreement; we allow such guilt or grief to be embedded in our hearts. Life goes on, just face the world, let it go and  let bygones be bygones . So ladies, set yourselves free, be someone who you want to be. Dress and look the way you like. From now on, transform and move forward with confidence and  RISE  like the break of  DAWN. A big applause to our ever energetic and confident TME, CC Tammy Lim for bringing in the idea of  “Let It Go.” Our Humour master CTM ATMB Carolyn Wong let go her first blast by standing on stage with her yellow  “wigs”  and act like a  “crown” . The laughter erupted even before she utter the first sentence. Obviously, a good beginning makes a good ending. Most of us burst into laughing    tears  upon watching and hearing her jokes. Well done Carolyn Wong. ​ Datin M...

The Power of You - 13 April, 2020

THE POWER OF YOU by: Dr. Elaine Loo Every member in our society is valuable and necessary for our society’s progress, just like every part of the body plays an important function. We tend to think certain parts of the body being not as important – but actually we need every part equally. It’s only when each part of the body is respected and treated with care that the whole body remains healthy and can grow well. I had a friend who had the appendix removed due to an infection. “It does not have an important function. It’s ok.”    he said. “ For the past few decades, conventional medicine believed the appendix was an unimportant organ and served very little function. Emerging evidence is painting a strikingly different picture. It turns out that the appendix play a vital function in the development of the immune system,” said my friend who is a doctor. Similarly in our society, each and every member is an essential part to the health of the whole nat...
