Day +1327 : A relaxing day at a hilly orchard - Fruit

I am fine today.

Mr. and Mrs. Woo treated us with organic fruits from the orchard. Even though this is not the fruit season, we were grateful to be able to enjoy the passion fruit and guava.

The passion fruit taste extremely good - with strong citric fruit taste, not just plain sweetness. Mrs Woo mentioned that even those who have gastric problem have no problem taking her passion fruit and lemon :-)

Giant lemon. I never see such a big lemon before.

Mr. Woo planted 8 acres of dragon fruit and during the peak period, he could easily harvest 200kg dragon fruit one time. I used to purchase the fruit from him. Organic and cheap :-) But unfortunately, the plants was infected with disease and the only solution as told by Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (MARDI) was to cut down the tree.
