Picture Taken on 6 Dec 2008
Wei Hao, Jing Jing and I took a short trip into Malaysia. I wanted to go to an interesting place but yet not a very popular choice for others.
At the rainforest resort, life was simple and this provide a great opportunity for us to recharge. In the rooms, there was no TV, radio or phone. Even the thermal flask used is similar to the one that my Grandma is still using (those with a metal cover and a sponge stopper)! Do not despair, basic amenities are still very good. The spacious room is air conditioned with a nice bathroom. The resort, as its name implies, was surrounded by rainforest. Every morning you will wake up to the calls of monkeys and cocks.
We woke up early and I had actually planned to trek out to find a good location to take a picture of sun rise over the hill. Interestingly, although we had quite a tiring day the previous night, we felt rather energetic when we woke up. Thank God Wei Hao volunteered to drive us. We drove slowly looking for a ideal location. Finally we saw this barren patch with a view of the highest peak (the cute bump is the peak). This area might have been a result of deforestation but the exact use of this patch is unknown.
We met an adventure camp instructor the night before and he told us that the peak is a rock climbing site. He also mentioned that the campsite belongs to a Singaporean and that they often organise adventure camps for schools or any other groups.
I will be posting more pictures of the trip these few days. :)
