Short trip to Fraser Hill, Pahang
It was a Sat and sun day trip to the Fraser Hill. Suddenly planed and we start our journey at 4 pm from KL. it takes about 2 hours drive to Fraser hill. The road was good but very hilly road. On the go we saw a big lake, high mountain, Waterfalls, Monkeys and lots of Birds. we reach there about 6pm and it was real surprise for us! The whole town was inside the cloud and very few people stay there. It’s a very small town in top of the hill and is amazing.
There is lots of things to see in Fraser hill but most popular things to see and do is Jeriau Waterfall, Clock tower, Boating at Allan’s Water, Horse Riding, Bird Watching, Tracking, Camping etc.

How to get there?
Fraser’s Hills about 100km away north from Kuala Lumpur. Visitors can travel through the nearest towns Kuala Kubu Bharu or Bentong to access the highland resort destination. Using the Bentong route, you can take the Karak Highway, passing by the Genting Highlands exit and turn off at Bentong. Alternatively, visitors can travel on the North-South Highway and detour at the Kuala Kubu Bharu exit. From Kuala Kubu Bharu or Bentong, signboards will guide you to your destination, as Fraser’s Hill is a popular tourist highland spot. Alternatively, you can take the KTM Train from KL Sentral towards Kuala Kubu Bharu, and then get a taxi to bring you up. Do make arrangements with the driver to bring you back, as Fraser’s Hill does not have any cabs. From northern destinations, such as Penang, you only need to drive down the North-South Highway (or trunk road) past Ipoh towards Rawang. Eventually, there will be a turn-off to Kuala Kubu Bharu before the Rawang exit; turn here and follow the directions towards Fraser’s Hill from town.

A Short Trip to Taiping Night Safari
Saturday night almost 8:30 pm my wife telling me that I want to give you a surprise, so I asked what is that and she tell me I found one night safari in Malaysia and I think this is a good place for taking wild life pictures at night and I will pay for this trip but you have to go now! I was thinking that it’s a good proposal but I am a bit scared to drive at night in the high way. So we postpone the trip to next day.
Sunday Afternoon almost 5:30 we start our journey to Taiping. It’s a city under Perak State in Malaysia. For me this is a free trip, I don’t have to spend a penny because my wife offer me this trip. Well, as usual we start journey with our small car. It takes us about 3:30 hours to reach there, the distance from KL to Taiping main city is 310km. The road was very good and we decided to go directly to the Taiping night safari! Because we know it’s only open at night and we will be late if we go to the hotel first. Ones we go inside the zoo we see a visitor train waiting for us and we just get into it. I think they normally don’t allow walking in the zoo at night time. But it was not that good experience in the night safari because it’s not like real night safari, it is a day zoo and they just open it at night. Most of the animal was sleeping after there long day show in their case and the visitor train also did not stop in any place for more than 10 sec. So we can’t take any picture, even we can’t see the animal it was frustrating! After visiting the Night safari we came to hotel @ 11 pm for check-in.
Next day morning sleeping… I weak up at 1 o clock in the afternoon I saw my wife playing with her iPad. So we get ready and go out for lunch. Because after that we have to visit the full city and within tonight we have to go back to KL. Last night we had a bad experience so I thought it’s a small city and very few people stay here that’s why things are not so good here, But the city proof me that I was wrong, only the night safari was a bad experience for me in this city but everything else is splendid. The city is very old and nicely organized, roads are so clean, Foods are cheap, air so fresh, this is a city surrounded by hills and natural waterfalls, lakes, big trees, open fields and many other things which are really attract me. In a minute I start to love this city. We go to the Burmese pool, it’s a natural water fall and the water was so cold and fresh. We also go to the lake garden, we visited few old buildings made early in the 18th century and 19th century. Majority of people stay there are Muslim (Male).
After visiting all this places we are thinking to stay one more day but I have to go back because I have some work in KL so this is a half trip of Taiping, that time I decided that I will come back again to visit this city and make my trip complete.
After all Thanks to my Wife for this nice short tripe to taiping and I recommend to all this great city to visit in holiday if you like quite natural place.

First Flying Day!
I had a small wish to be a pilot from my child hood time. My mom always insists me to become a pilot when I will grownup. But when I really grown up it was an almost night mare for me to become a pilot because of my surrounding situation.
One boring day (No work) I was thinking what to do now and suddenly the pilot things came to my mind and I just start searching on Google for Pilot training in Malaysia and I found few flying Clubs and institutions, but one of them catch my intention because of the flexibility of the course, pricing and nearby my home. The club name is Air Adventure Flying club. That evening I call the flying club and talk with the instructor about every detail and next day evening I get admitted with the Club. Air Adventure flying club location is Subang Sky Park Airport, Malaysia.
I am happy now! I am becoming a pilot. My mom and dad will be very happy too. My training started and I am flying Cessna 172. So Wish me a luck. 
thanks
