Sekeping Serendah Retreat

After months of advance booking (It's about 5 months to be exact - see below), we finally get to go Sekeping Serendah :D Yes, it is that difficult to book because they only have 2 glass sheds and their bookings are very full.

On our way to Serendah, we spotted this durian stall by the street and decided to return afterwards to satisfy our crave for durians.

Us

After getting our tummy full, we visited a temple at Rawang and a waterfall nearby.

Now, back to Sekeping Serendah:

The track leading to the pool. We decided to skip the pool cuz
the pool was tiny and most of the time dominated by a bunch of rowdy guests. -___-

Breakfast time

We had nasi lemak which the Serendah caretaker tarpau-ed for us

Can you see the amount of fat and skin on the right? Totally gross.....
According to my mom, this must be the kampung chicken because our normal farm chicken was injected and don't have this much of fat.
Most probably it's really kampung chicken because Serendah was surrounded with the orang asli people village.

One last picture of us before we depart

Last but not least, I think I should mention that there is no TV and phone signal here. So we were totally
back to basic for these two days. No annoying calls, no facebooking, no tweeting. :)

To summarize, I think it was a good back-to-nature retreat and we had loads of fun. =)
