Heavenly image - A sight to behold!
We woke up at 0600 hrs to experience more of the cool air and quiet of the early morning. Managed to capture some sunrise images as well.

We took a stroll around the area soaking up the refreshing landscape of the Titiwangsa Range, Malaysia's core mountainous range. A lovely and tranquil place for a perfect highlands holiday with natural serene ambience, Fraser's Hill makes an excellent getaway at 4,100 ft above sea level. Fifteen years ago, you might have been able to experience the very cool air up here but today, it is not much different from an air-conditioned room due to the way the Malaysia climate has been affected by the global warming as well.

Breakfast was served between 0800 hrs to 1000 hrs. You could help yourself with the bread that was laid on the table. A plated breakfast of bread, sausages, fried egg and baked beans was then served.

We met up with Maya, Manager of Silverpark Resort, to discuss the venue arrangements for the awakening enlightenment meditation retreat and had a fruitful session. We found her to be very approachable and easy to work with.
After meeting up with Maya, we drove to the town centre and decided to have lunch at Shahzan's Inn. We went to the coffee house and ordered Daging Merah (beef dish), Nasi Kampung Merak (fried rice with chicken and satay) and Curry Noodle. The food was not too bad although a bit on the pricey side.

From Jeriau Waterfall, we proceeded to The Smokehouse Hotel and Restaurant for their traditional English tea and scones. At the same time, we also ordered the choc lava cake. The Smokehouse Hotel and Restaurant evokes all the charm of the English countryside. The scones are served with cream and strawberry jam and tasted just perfect. The choc lava cake was just the right texture and a great temptation. We were tempted to order more of the choc lava cake but for the fact that we would be having a steamboat dinner soon. We had a leisurely tea, relaxing to the soothing sounds of nature, peace and tranquility as we had our tea in the gardens and watching monkeys and birds go by.
Before heading back to Silverpark Resort, we drove by Pines Resort, another of the Malaysia resorts on Fraser's Hill, to take a look at the area to see if that venue would be able to fit our requirements. To our surprise, we found the place to be a very busy place, too busy for what we were looking for. Thus, we decided that we would not require to meet up with the managers at Pines Resort the next day and cancelled the appointment.
Spent some time back at the Silverpark Resort apartment and managed to snap quite a few eye-catching sunset images before we went for a late steamboat dinner.
Once again. dinner saw us back at Shahzan's Inn at Lela Manja Restaurant. Although it was stated as a buffet steamboat dinner at RM28++, we were given a specific portion of food. Food was reasonable. We just enjoyed ourselves chatting and soaking in the atmosphere.

By the time we got back to our accommodation for the night, it was already after 2200 hrs. We discussed a bit of arrangements for The Opening before retiring for the night.
