约的是下午四点半出发,跟大多数的人选择不同,所以当天只有我和朋友两人参加。向导eddie根据我们的骑车经验和身高很仔细地为我们选了车。这趟旅程中我们去了义合豆蔻园,那里提供的豆蔻水很解榴莲,让人念念不忘,了解到不少豆蔻功效,认识豆蔻树,豆蔻居然分公母;还去了莎能羊牧场,刚好碰上他们在挤奶,这真是个适合亲子活动的地方。骑车一路上,享受到宁静的马来乡村风光,让我想起马来西亚电影《一路有你》里的乡村诗意。不少榴莲树也是应节景观,当然还有马来西亚最重要的经济作物棕榈树,还捡到不少棕榈果见识一下。一路经过海边渔村,华人村子喜欢把房子聚在一起,每家还挂族号如“江夏”,Eddie说着显示了姓氏和祖籍,类似的在泉州某些地方见到过,忽然意识到这正是感受着海上丝绸之路的古风流传。马来人更喜欢独门独户的吊脚屋或者改造成两层楼房的吊脚屋进化版,遇到了一位正在钓蟹的马来老人和他们热情的家人,感受到了马来渔民的善良热情。收获满满的一趟旅程,不过如果再选一次,会选择早上来,那样就可以看到捕鱼归来热闹的渔村了。
As a fan of Malaysian popular comic Kampung Boy, a cycling tour to Malay kampung is fascinating to me.Eddie is super nice, he picked bikes according to our experience and night.We visited a nutmeg farm and goat farm, very interesting. Eddie shared the past and present of local malay kamoung from the houses we came accross.Visiting the seaside village is also impressive.We even met a kind malay fishman family, the fishman show us the crab he caught today,and his cute grandson gave us some fresh rambutan, that's the best rambutan I ever tasted. Eddie is also a part time teach in Balik Pulau for bakery, bakery fans may ask for a recipe of durian dessert from him lol.
