Bukit Melawati

已经很久没有跟家人一起出游，所以特别选了星期二这公共假日到瓜拉雪兰莪玩一玩。开车从吉隆坡出发大约须一个小时。雨停后路还些滑，所以驾驶也没太快，反正也不是在赶时间。一路的风景很不错，原来马来西亚种植了一大片的棕榈树。听说马来西亚是世界第二大棕榈出口国，比起世界第一的印尼，国土比例相对更小的马来西亚竟然也排名第二，可见所砍伐的森林也不少。虽然如此，看见绿色的风景比看见高楼还要开心。

不知不觉就来到皇家山底，因为雨过天晴后阳光不是很猛，所以气温不太热，出游真是太舒服了。把车停好后，我们首先到眼睛店拿哥哥的眼睛，而且妈妈也买了一副新眼镜。之后，我们就准备去搭小火车。矗立在山前的白色钟塔古色古香，静静地在山底守护皇家山。搭上小火车的我们犹如回到孩童时代一样快乐。没想到我人长这么大还是童心未泯。

小火车其实是机车拖着两车厢，徐徐向山顶出发。路上看见一些旧式的马来建筑物静静的受葱绿的草木包围。来到山顶我们就看见高耸的灯塔，即刻就像游客一样到处拍照。我们看到有小贩贩卖喂食猴子的食粮，于是就买来喂养它们。一开始大家都很害怕。我不知道贵为万物之灵的人类竟然是那么害怕动物。我觉得应该是太久根大自然隔绝，没有好好地了解如何跟大自然共存，所以才觉得害怕。于是，我让猴子爬上了肩膀也没有赶走它，尝试习惯跟别的动物近距离相处一下。喂养后，下山的感觉特别好。

I could not remember when is the previous family trip as it was long time ago. So we decided to visit Kuala Selangor on this public holiday, Awal Muharram, which was about an hour drive from Kuala Lumpur. We had been busy working with computer and playing the phone, so we wanted to spend precious times to attach with family and detach from devices. 

Bukit Melawati was the first sight-seeing destination. Instead of walking up the hill, we took the colourful train. It instantly brought back my childhood memory as a kid who love fun and adventure. The views at the top of Melawati Hill was breathtaking, we saw the coastline from high.

The highlight was to bought food and fed the monkeys. They were not over aggressive but very demanding, only left when they are given food. There was a mother with son attached climbed on me and tried to get food. I stood there and let people take some pictures. It was fun.
