Even as his baby sister goes a-toddling, The Rockstar goes a-strawberry picking. The very fact this is a “thing,” where there are kids in other parts of the world who skip out to backyards for fresh strawberries when Mama is making pie, just strikes me every time. I can’t even type me and pie without snorting. At least not unless it involves a fork.
Well here now, pictures of Rockstar picking strawberries. D-uh. What? Fine, Ta-raaaaa!
Rockstar’s Lemme At Em pose, complete with prop of Empty Tray Just Waiting To Be Filled:
A-and…. action!
(After which it wasn’t long before we abandoned taking pics…..)
(Also the tray which was being weighed…..)
Needless to say Rockstar scarfed the fruit the next morning for breakfast (thereby nixing complaints about lack of room service at Bala’s Chalet) and through the car journey to the airport to fly home (there were two big trays)…
But hang on lemme post the pics of the bee farm too:
(Rockstar’s squinting at the sun)
We pass a larger-than-life golden Buddha statue, go up and down rocky terrain and across a stream back and forth – during all of which Little Miss has decided she shall walk all the way, thank you very much. I couldn’t take many pics for her either clambering up something super fast, or risking rolling down a hill/ sitting down suddenly in chicken poop.
Seeing a huge Bunga Raya, Kings lifts Little Miss for a head size comparison (does that sound awful? I’m tired; no wit and charm today <ducks head> :()
Little Miss delivers her own verdict, saves my post:
Nb: We’re ba-aack… It’s actually the first day of school for Rockstar today! There’s about a 2 day time lag between my travel posts and realtime; unless it involves a Youtube of room service ordering wherein people know our exact hotel room haha.
Hehehe, Miss Rockstar looks so cute in the photo where she turned and looked at the Bunga Raya.
Good that Rockstar enjoyed picking the strawberries and eating them. Made the winding trip up CH really worth it. Were the strawberries sweet or sourish sweet?
Both; her highness would only eat the sweet ones, Rockstar ate everything while offering her part of the sweet ones. Actually he was the one who observed she spat just the sour ones… Him, he’ll eat most fruit unless they’re very, very sour…
I like to eat most fruits too. Good to hear that Rockstar loves fruits too.
