Fraser’s Hill

Have a massive amount of pictures from my trip. I usually travel with a laptop but this time around I was armed with a 16GB SD card and have just spent the last five hours of my Saturday night sorting out the pictures. Here are some from when we went to Fraser’s Hill.

I was late picking Joshua up in the AM, so by the time we all finally had lunch and got going we missed the 1:40pm drive up the Gap. It was also partly because neither me nor Joshua had been there before so finding our way to the base of the hill took a little on-the-fly navigating and some help from Google Maps on my iPhone!

Our first arvo at the bungalow. A short while after this was taken, Joshua brought out his djembes and we had a tambourine and sat in the sun taking turns to play them while Chak sang with his guitar.

The bungalow we rented was catered, and most of the ingredients from our meals were grown locally. Here we were having ice cream with fresh raspberries!

There really isn’t much to do up there. We found a waterfall!

We had a fireplace!

The bungalow was awesome. There was a fireplace and all, and the caretakers had plastered the place with festive decorations. I couldn’t figure out who Malcolm and Matilda were, my room had those names stuck on the cupboards in big, colourful letters. And to add to the awesomeness, Chak brought his coffee machine along.

Gift exchange! I drew Amelia’s present which was a really nice hand-lettered postcard book by Ray Fenwick. We were trying to look super excited posing with our presents and as usual Chak outdid everyone else. By the look on his face you’d think he got a 20-inch dildo!

I had a really good time up there. It was one of those really chilled-out trips with really chilled-out people, where we all did our own thing.. together. Amelia now has me addicted to a board game called Shadow Hunters! I wish I had a picture of us playing this into the wee hours of the morning.

The drive back down was a little more exciting, KY had driven off in a different car and left Chak stranded up there for another couple of hours. I barely had enough gas for the drive to KKB but we made it in the end. Would have loved to have one more day there! Thanks for organising this trip, Chak :)
