Strawberry Picking 2011

Huhu please excuse me for this delay post ok. Hehe.

Anyway, we went for strawberry picking during last Summer, in July. It was the end of the strawberry season actually. We were kinda late already. Since we had promised, Zahin kept asking on it. Well, promise has to be kept so we made a trip. First, it was very difficult searching for a farm within London which was still doing strawberry picking, but we were lucky when our friend Farah who lives in Bristol reccommended us this one farm in Gloucester. Credit to her as well as she's the one who contacted the farm and asked whether there was still doing strawberry picking. Thank you Farah. (if you tumbled on my blog..:))

The Wotton farm is located in Gloucester, about 30 minutes driving from Bristol. But it took us almost five hours fr our place in Stratford. Huhu we had mistakenly took the wrong junction at Motorway. It was a long journey but we enjoyed the countryside view along the way. Alhamdulillah, we finally arrived at the farm around 3PM. Actually, you can pick other fruits like cherry, blueberry and many more including vegetables but as expected Zahin insisted us to go for strawberry. After all, the trip was made especially for her rite..? So we dídn't want to let her down..;)

I wanna pick, pick and pick..^_^

 more fruits and vegetables were sold at the shop

 we bought the ice cream, some cookies and chocolate toffees too. ^_^

At the end of the day, Zahin was very happy to pick her own strawberries. It was a great experience, indeed. Though the method they had planted the strawberries were the same as the one at Cameron Highlands but at this farm, it was open-aired and free admission. We just paid for our straberries according to its weight and it's not that much either. After that we headed to Bristol and also visited Farah and slept over at her place one night. We had fun in Bristol! Mucho mucho gracias, Farah and Abg Imran! You guys are so nice to us! ;) If i had free time, i will definitely update about it too k. :)

Wassalam.
