That's how I would describe our experience at Bukit Tinggi last weekend. No TV, no internet, no computer from Friday evening to Sunday noon. I think Zane, Moses and Mary survived it well. So did I.
In fact, it was quite blissful and peaceful. We had a great view of the jungle and the pure sky, weather was cool and pleasant. We swam in the Janda Baik river, had meals at small huts, home-cooked foods of delicious masak tempoyak and asam pedas rebus. Admired the beauty of jungle ginger flowers and metallic green dragonflies (yes, they exist!).
At night, we sat out on the balcony of our little apartment and enjoyed the fresh air and the sounds of nature -- crickets and nocturnal birds. In the shadows of the night, we made out some stars, overhead planes and bungalows within the jungle.
We let the kids snack on their favourites -- cocoa crunch, crisps and other not-so-healthy stuff...it was a holiday, so we gave 'em a break...heheh...
Wishing for another round of this bliss.
