Taman Negara D2

The night jungle walk was postponed due to rain on the 1st night. We had a good sleep... and woke late in the morning.


The breakfast was simple though but on a eat till you drop basis.


 


The 2nd day began with a mountain climbing to “bukit indah”. The 5 kids had no problem as the guide over watched their climb, but for rest of the adult the climb is still a stress. I had to look after Ving as she was still unfamiliar with the trekking stuff.


The climb was smooth but the trekking to the canopy walk was slow as most of us had worn off after the climb. Water was really an issue as the preparation as not sufficient. A good lesson as the kids learnt how precious water is. He finally arrived at the canopy walk and the 1st thing was buying drinks…. The refreshment kept us going and the walk was exciting even though we got to walk half of the trail. The other half was undergoing renovation but still it was a very stunning experience for all of us…


Lunch was darn simple, nasi goring kampong with fried egg. We had a nap and later proceeded for the rapid shooting….


A wet experience but with the temperature of 22C, it was a chilling when the breeze streamed through our wet suits….


Dinner was better with 3 dishes and fruit plus cold air syrup. Air syrup was one of my favorite; during my childhood, my mom would buy a big bottle of condensed juice - add water and ice , woola,a nice and chilling experience in a hot day...


The first day ended and I was wandering if I would make it to D3 as my lower leg and thigh had begun to soar, just wandered if I could complete the walk to Abai waterfall..
