Nothing much I can say about the trip except that it is great. Despite I have to wake up early on thursday morning, it worth it. We depart from HEP at 9 although big boss said bus will leave at 830 and we have to gather there at 815, but never mind, he is the boss. Well, bus trip never felt so fun with awen inside it. Teasing everyone in the bus plus some safety briefing by him, it complete the trip I should say. We reach the processing chamber (i guess so) at Mayang Tea around 10 something. Following that is ome briefing done by Mr I-Dont-Know-His-Name, credit for him for all the detail explanation. Then the fun part begin where we start to explore Mayang Tea factory. I must the workers are not so "mesra alam", maybe because they are shocked by our numbers which is around 60 plus persons. After crashing the factory, we move on to the tea plantation with bus. Along the way, some city boys trying to impress each other by naming all the plants they see outside the bus, and I learn that coconut is apple (hahahaha). When we reach the plantation, it is midday. Well, under zinc roof, it is more like oven out there. Thanks to Tieng Tieng for some battery powered fan. After some photo sessions, we got the chance to tapau some ice lemon tea back at the factory. Then is it lunch at Serian before we are heading back to campus. I must say, it feels good to have a trip since our last trip was 2 years ago together.
