Tekam Day 2, December 16

We all went for breakfast at 8.  The food was simple, only a few dishes but all tasted good.  Then it was off the the Herb Farm for a walk about.  We were shown quite a number of herbs including vanilla!  But the boys did not enjoy it.  They complained of the morning heat, sunny at 10am.  We made it short and then headed for Gelanggi Caves.  We did one easy cave as the boys were not too keen about caving.  However, they liked the cool breeze blowing at the cave entrance, after a long stairs climb.

We then took a drive around Jerantut to have a look at this town which leads to Taman Negara.  Sad to say, there was nothing much to see.  There was not many pre-war buildings, which is what we would have loved to see.  There wasn't even anything good to eat.  We walked the market and got some nettings to replace our torn fishing nets.

We headed back for Tekam as the boys wanted to go swimming.  Got them to the pool at 3 and they stayed till 6, with a burger break in between.  It rained again in the evening while they were swimming.  That cooled the evening.  After showering, we walked to Garden Terrace for dinner and had kampung fried rice, tea and sirup bandung.  Delicious.  The sky was not as starry as the 1st night, nonetheless it was a beautiful cool night.
