Strawberry Picking

Continuing from Nasi Liwet for Lunch

As promised, here is the entry on strawberries. Actually when we got there, most of the strawberries had been picked by some other tourists. Fortunately, there were still some left for us to pick. Without haggling for the price, we picked the scissors and the plastic containers and went to the strawberries. Did I say haggling? The truth is that there was no need for bargaining as the price charged was reasonable… Watch out strawberries! Here we come!

It was Pasha’s first time picking strawberries and he was having lots of fun. He was truly excited when given the honor to cut the strawberries. In fact, all of us were very excited as well as it was not everyday that we had the chance to walk around cutting down strawberries from their plants… Best giler!

Can you see the fruits of our labor up there. Literally..haha… When the strawberries were weighted, we were actually short of the minimum weight. I could remember what was the weight as I was not really paying attention… Anyway, we asked the person who mannend the lot to complete the picking for us. Talk about some lazy bumps here…

How was the taste? Well, they were not completely sweet but not that sour either. Pasha could eat them just like that and to me, it was not bad at all. They tasted a bit better than what we normally get at our very own Cameron Highland.

Stay tuned for the series finale…
