Mr Voon, was my photography sifu and my F5 form teacher, my add math and physics teacher. He was also our school official photographer and the advisor of the photography club. He always plans wonderful trips for us during school holidays. Sometimes, for weekends, just to chill out after our exams.
We had our frequent trips to Lata Gugup. It's a private farm owns by Mr Voon's friend in Taiping. The place has a small water fall, a double story ‘frame’ house, and a toilet. The double story house is built of wood and it’s not fully covered. It doesn’t have walls. The lower part is a kitchen and the upper area is the place where we sleep. The place has a power generator too.
We normally stay for one night there. In the day time, we would play with the water and at night we’ll normally have BBQ. Mr Koo would bring us some lamb chop, one of his specialties. And we would have feast all night long! After that we’ll talk, play cards or sing. Mr Voon will bring his guitar and play, some times we sang along with him. :p
We normally stayed up till wee hours chit-chatting and laughing away. The next morning, we’ll cook our favorite maggi mee or eat the left-over from the BBQ. It was really fun!
I took these pictures from my photo album with my digi cam, so the quality is not very good :p too lazy to scan, i don't have a scanner anyway.. the photos from our last Lata Gugup trip back in 2000. As always, Mr Voon is there to capture those moments~
