Day 1 - Taman Warisan Pertanian

Yesterday, we took a coach at 7am from Teck Whye Primary to KL. We took 6 hours to reach KL. We stopped by Malacca to have our lunch. The place has a very nice scenery!

After lunch, we continued our journey. We reached Taman Warisan Pertanian. We saw many different plantations such as pineapples, bananas, jackfruits and rubber trees.

Here are some interesting facts that we have learnt:
- There are 79 types of bananas in the world and only 37 are edible.
- Black pepper was known as black gold in the past.
- The plant Misai Kucing looks like a cat's whiskers. It can treat diabetes and kidney diseases.
- Pineapples take a long time to grow (about 6 months to 1 year).
- Tea originated from China and coffee from Etiophia.

We were happy because we got to interview Uncle Han about pineapples. We will share the videos with all of you soon.

After studying about plants, we had a bus tour around the city. We saw the PICC and KLCC. Then, we had dinner at a restaurant. The food was YUMMY!

We continued our bus journey to our hotel! We were amazed when we saw our hotel. It was beautiful. Our teachers debriefed us. All of us received our room keys and went into our rooms. All of us slept well especially Tharmesh!

We will blog about our Day 2 in KL soon.
