LADANG ANGGUR MALAYSIA!

Hello.... hello... hello....

Another story

Another trip

Another Cuti2 Malaysia

versi Roshida

-Ala, setakat pi Beris... dekat je.... tu pun nk citer

(suara suami tersayang berkumandang di belakang)

-Ala, tak kisah ler... suka hati le..

(pandai aku menjawab dlm hati. Nak balas kuat2 takut dikatakan istri durhaka. Oh! sungguh ku tak rela)

It's just another boring weekend so the trip was unexpected. When my Cik Abe called & asked us to get ready, I thought it's another trip to Tesco or maybe to Central Square or perhaps Giant? Or to Jaya Jusco?

(hati mula berbunga sbb sopping ni mmg my feveret pastime)

Well, to make this story short... the destination was definitely not the shopping complexes!

(Ala.... tak syok nyer....)

So... all of us (My Cik Abe tercinta, my beloved kids, my mom-in-law, my sis-in law & her young doter (my niece)) went to this place called Beris Lake Vineyard(Ladang Anggur Tasik Beris), Sik, Kedah.

Can you see the signboards?

Menarik, kan? Tpt Penternakan ikan talapia merah je tak pegi... sbb lepas tu pegi kolam air panas...

but again that's going to be another...another story... phew!
Well, once we were there, the most important agenda was to make sure we could prove the existence of grapes. The best way was by taking pics....loads of them...

Yg di bawah ni sipi2 je tau... ada lg tapi tak larat nk upload...

This is my mom-in-law. Next to her is my eldest son...

alamak, apasal gelap je anak mama ni.... sahih main panas byk sgt... dulu cerah jer...

This is the shop that sells fresh grapes & any products related to grapes

(apa2 yg sewaktu dgn nye)

My niece (Alya), my Raina & my Ijan posed in the shop.

Raina & Alya

My princess

Then we went inside.

(Macam biasa la. Posing je... mesti tunjuk kehebatan memetik anggur yg hakikatnya tak boleh dipetik pun... ciss!!!)
Mr Grape : Legaa...
Mrs Grape : Lega??
Mr Grape : Sbb kita tak kena petik.
Mrs Grape : Legaaaa........

So mengancam...

Meleleh air peluh....
because it's so damn hot outside!

Khairil is showing his super skill on how to pluck the grapes.

Me too.

Raina tak cukup tinggi so dok diam2 ye...

Being a mother, I coudn't resist the temptation to help her.

Aku kan ibu yg penyayang... cewah!

My cik abe ni petik ke tahan buah jgn luruh... ish..ish..ish...

Ijan pon nk tunjuk skill... dh besar ye anak mama ni...

And after walking around without a single grape in hands, we entered the shop once again. This time we made sure the yummy grapes must be ours.

As usual, the big man must be the one who purchased the grapes...

Yg lain tolong tgk & tolong perabih jer...

waduh, sempat lg posing nih... hehehe...

OK... OK.... Let me tell you why we went there.

1. It's nearby. No plane or boat required! Save budget LOL...

2. We're so interested to see the grape vineyard (Takkan nk pegi Perancis kot!)

3. To prove that grapes can live healthily & happily in Kedah, Malaysia (Yes! Malaysia Boleh!)

4. For fun... why not?

5. Can eat fresh grapes.... the taste & experience...priceless...

.................................................................

But let me give you some tips here...

1. Must know the direction or you'll end up somewhere else. Padang Besar? Bukit Kayu Hitam? Thailand?

2. Don't expect too much because this place is still new.

3. Don't go during peak season or you'll go home emptyhanded.

AND

4. Don't judge grapes by their colours... green grapes are actually sweeter... nicer....

(menyesal tak beli anggur hijau byk2...)
