No much activities on Day 1 as most of the men were tired and exhausted from the 5 hr journey. Cooked tomato soup and made tuna sandwiches for lunch. Played alittle PS2 and some board games, i.e Collossus Arena. Had BBQ at night. Took us nearly 1hr 10mins to get the coals to become ember before we started grilling the BBQ materials. |

After BBQ, most of the men were dead tired. Sat and chat at the living room of the apartment for alittle while and the first to retire was Csan. The rest retired according to the order below.

Day 2 - Exploring Cameron |
|
|
|
The quiet and tranquil nights gave good rest to the men. I slept for only 6 hours and I felt as though I have napped for about 10 hrs. Mr. Loo woke up at 3am, the earliest, while for FJ we had to wake him (coz he is the Pang.). Cooked some instant noodles for breakfast, all the men got dressed and prepare to depart for their 1st destination for the day. The Bharat Tea Plantations. We tried to explore the tea plantations and suddenly the weather became an obstacles when it started to drizzle. Good thing we brought our umbrellas and jackets, well at least most of us did. We ended up sitting at the tea house and had some tea. I also went to buy some Cameron tea leaves and a nice tea mug. |

The original plan was to go to the Strawberry and Butterfly Park, but because of the rain the plan was postponed to tomorrow. After our tea break at the tea house, we set forth for lunch at FJ's relatives place. Had quite a satisfying meal for lunch for a really reasonable fee. Ahh... and now to some interesting point. After our meal, we had our little "Chilli eating championship", where the participants were FJ, CH, and Jman. By the way those chilli can kill really :P really really HOT. Jman emerge the champion when FJ drank iced tea to chill the hotness in his stomach. But the person who actually ate the most chillies were FJ, even though Jman consumed the most chillies in 1 go - 16 pieces.
We then went home and had a game of RISK. It started at 3pm and by 7.24pm still hadn't ended. We then decided to take a break and headed for steamboat dinner. We ate at a steamboat restaurant called Jasmine. A nice steamboat dinner was served to us for but a reasonable fee. Things are really cheap and nice here. =) And then... we went home and continued the game of RISK. Mr. Loo emerged the winner by the time the game ended at about 1am. Jman had a business to conduct in the toilet, and he had to return there the 2nd time to clear up the unfinished business that he left behind from the 1st time.
After that game, the men took a shower and watched a DVD. I cannot remember what the title was... but it was a movie that I have seen before. After the movie, me and CH decided to call it a day when it was already 2.45am. Mr. Loo went to bed at about 3.30am. CS, FJ and Jman decided to play a game of Collossus Arena and it lasted until 5.30am before they retire.
