Day trip to Tanjung Sepat

Finally there's a holiday for those "da gong zai" like me, 1st of May, labor day! Usually around this time (since I came out to work), I usually have plans with friend to somewhere, eg. last year I was with other college and high school friends go mount KK climbing. This year, maybe everyone was busy, Siow Hui is pregnant, so, there's nothing on... but a day before when my dad came back from work, he was asking if I want to follow them(my parents and my father's friend's family) to Tanjung Sepat. He must be surprised why I this year I've got no plan. Since I always heard they talked about Tanjung Sepat, how much they enjoy their trip to Tanjung Sepat, and Lingtze once mentioned about this place too, so, ok, I'm in!
It's a day trip, because we still need to work or go to school on 2nd May. Early in the morning, about 7am, we met up with another family and had our breakfast in Kuchai Lama, dim sum of course, then we drove all the way to Tanjung Sepat through Nilai toll. The distance is not as short as I expected, took us about like 1 and a half hour to reach our 1st destination - dragon fruit farm.

This is just one of a dragon fruit farm in Tanjung Sepat, basically, there are a lot of similar farm along the road. Now is the fruity season, a lot of dragon fruits were hanging on the branches. From the pictures, there are the flower, only bloom at night, during the day the petal is half closed, then the fruit.
The one that we visited is a huge farm, they mainly distribute their fruit to other places, but they still keep some in their farm for visitor and some they use to make wine and juice.
They kept a monkey in their farm too, they were saying last time they allow the monkey to walk freely outside, but since now the monkey is old and he is a little bit "insane" now (means it will sometimes attack people), so they kept it in cage.

Next, we came to this longan farm, this was requested by my mom, last time she bought a pineapple, yes, pineapple in longan farm, the pineapple is very tasty and sweet, so she wants to buy more this time to give to neighbor and relatives. When I reached there, this farm is even bigger than the dragon fruit farm, and at the entrance, they keep an hectare or 2 to plant pineapple. There are 2 type of pineapple in the farm, the rounded Sarawak one and the long-shaped one, I forgot this long-shaped one is from where already. My mom was actually looking for the long-shaped pineapple but unfortunately now isn't the season, they have only a few for us to buy and I can say, my mom has bought almost all. hehe
Longan is on the other side of the farm, also not in season yet. So, the owner can only asked his worker to pluck some for us.

After that we went to this mango farm. The owner is a 76 years old man, he is still very strong, walk faster than me, and still managing the farm by himself.
When we entered the farm, the children shouted, "mom, got dead puppy!" When we go closer, they are newborn puppies, one of them sleep on his back, and the kids thought that he die. hahaha... each of the puppies are so cute, I can't really differentiate them because they looked exactly the same to me.
The mangoes are very sweet, but some rotten, because the farmer said he didn't put pesticide, it's hard to believe though. His children doesn't want to take over his farm, so, he is planning to replant with palm tree, because palm gives better yield and can get better profit.
I don't have the contact of the old man, but this farm is on the way to Gold Coast Morib. Yeah! Malaysia also has a Gold Coast.
==================================================
After the mango farm, it's actually about lunch time, but before we had our lunch, we stopped by the potato chips factory to buy some local snacks. I didn't take any pictures there because my camera's batteries died off. And I've been looking around for batteries, but what they mainly sell in shop are those big batteries, not AA battery.

After lunch, it was about 3pm something, cause that day was a public holiday, a lot of people waited at each of the restaurant, we have been waited for about 2 HOURS as well.
Although it was just after lunch, but we were still wanted to try the famous pau in the village too...
It's Hainanese pau, but according to some villagers there, they said last time taste better, now because they do mass production using machines, the taste is slightly different. When we get there, wah, the queue was already out to the street, and when we went nearer to ask for the pau, they said have to wait until 6pm. Oh no, of course, we wouldn't want to wait, cause we didn't want to go back KL late.
But, I did went in to their kitchen and snapped a few pictures la.
Sorry, didn't get their contact...
==================================================

Another tourist attraction at Tanjung Sepat is this gano mushroom farm.

Lastly, before going back to KL, Tanjung Sepat also a place famous for fresh seafood. But when we went to the fish market, maybe we were a little bit exhausted, we didn't really look around, and the fishes there were not as fresh as we expected also. So, end up buying nothing and we went back to KL for dinner.

Anyway, it was still a very relax holiday, will definitely recommend or bring my friends to go to visit the place again!
