Last Saturday Sue Ann, Lemuel, my sis, Sue Ann's RBS friends and I went for white water rafting.... at Kuala Kubu Baru. If anyone wants to go make sure you take the PieRose ones....

Us before Rafting


Four of us in the Rafts... Our guide was Mr. CK Yo! and Pusing (orang Asli)

Once again ........ our raft with Mr. Yo!
First Rapid... relatively Mild

Still on the first Rapid

Top Views of the First Rapid....



After the first rapid, we parked our rafts to go "surfing"
This... is Surfing Kuala Kubu Bharu style........

Rapids are pretty strong that it is hard to control how you move. But not at all dangerous

And this would be called the Chicken Drop ( I don't know why)

More fun rafting.... at more than 5-8 rapids ... we even learnt what a staghorn plant is......



We also stopped at some waterfall. The waterfall was so damn cold.... made the river water feel warm....
About the last kilometer or so we were floating on our own till the end....

Our last photo was at the place we had our lunch.

Total journey was 7 kilometers...

Bukit Tinggi (very) early morning Hike and others

Last weekend we (the movers + siawlin) went to Bukit Tinggi... and here are the photos.... more at the-movers.blogspot.com (if you don't see it at the movers, wait awhile...this was posted earlier). I will be posting mostly on the gruesome hike (3 hours total walking time of uphills and downhills... mostly uphills) to the waterfall and river.

And the morning hike..... This was the first stretch...

Roots of the tree was washed clean by a landslide
Still at the start of the hike

Waiting at the first stretch for the other people...

Looks small???
Not that small afterall..
