Photos from the Highlands

The house with miles of jungle backing it.
Watching sunrise on the morning of our departure from the farm. A breathtaking view.
The river after 30 minutes of heavy rain. It completely washed out a road and damaged a bridge that leads to some other dilapidated empty houses the guys would gather supplies from.
Feeding the crazy roosters, watch your back!
All these birds would say is "GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE!!!!"
A feast is prepared for Thanksgiving dinner.
Feeding the hungry goats that managed to escape their pen frequently and will literally eat anything.
Weeding and collecting animal food. Killing two birds with one stone (the farm motto)
Fishing for dinner, Ladia complete with wet suit and snorkelling gear.
Soon to be our room, but we never really moved in.
View from the house with the kilang in the foreground. The farm was in a cloud forest.
Ready to kick it into gear and climb up to the farm.
Freezing cold at 6,666 feet felt like home
Top of the Boh Tea Estate in Cameron Highlands.
The trail to Robinson Falls, straight out of Alice in Wonderland.
On top of this mountain in the Cameron Highlands we ate a lunch of Nasi Lemak, rice, a spoonful of curry, peanuts and fermented fish wrapped in a banana leaf.
Well manicured tea plants spread over miles of rolling hills. This photo doesn't really do it justice.
