Outdoor Weekends (ending 2010)

Qasih Harmoni (Family Day): 3rd-5th December 2010

Had quite a full-weekend December, and im loving the fact that i have activities to fill my usually sleep & snooze away weekends. hehehe. Well, first week of December, I was off on the plane again to KK. This time for my father-in-laws family day/gathering. time to mingle with the bigger family :)


reached KK on the last flite out (around 12.30am next day), still sleepy from work but happy to see my hubby's hidung mancung & he dragged me to eat at McD. haaaaaaaaaah, tq for always ensuring i shall get fatter :p


next day we were packed and ready for the first leg of our family day, bowling at 1Borneo. Aween+Faizal=first time not so good bowlers :D hahahah, agak menyedihkan that most of our aims ended up in the longkang, thus pasangan suami isteri ini made a vow to make bowling one of our activities after this , hehe..owh, lupa, we were divided into four different groups, syg being head of the blue team, me assistant for team red :D bersaing again!



after sweating it out at the bowling alley, ktorg ramai2 gerak ke Mimpian Jadi Golf Resort at Tuaran (around 28km north from KK), so sampai sana pun dah senja dah


After dinner, our next group binding activity was win lose or draw, mesej berantai (klakar gile game nih) bahasa syarat & kerusi beracun (for the kids), we had a freaking fun nite !

XPDC Endau Rompin: 11th-12th December 2010

Our office Recreation & Sports Club orgaized a 4-wheel adventure into Endau-Rompin , Taman Negara. Maj my darl girlfriend put in my name and i love her so much for that (tempat sgtla terhad nak join weh)

for a mere payment of RM90 (inclusive activities, transport, food  and accomodation for 2 days 1 nite) we had a great weekend, oh, harga normal RM300/person but of coz our office subsidized ;)

had an early breakfast at Pelita before gathering at the office to pack orselves into 2 vans as prepared by taman Negara. After around 3++ hours we arrived at the office of Taman Negara where we stopped for a toilet break and loading ourselves into the 4 x 4 wheel drives :)

an hour of adventure through the 4 wheel road path

arriving at the 'pintu masuk' taman negara (entrance endau rompin)

group photo after arriving



then we had our lunch (which was cooked by a catering company that only came into the camp base when there were adventurers like us, hehe) and after unpacking our stuff to our 'pondoks' we were off on the first trekking trip to Takah Pandan

It was an-hour long hike to the waterfalls, and let me tell u, the path was steep gilaaaa, all it was, was up up up! agak kekejangan kaki jugak and out of breath (lama x trekking) but once we arrived..god..priceless ok, i would do it 10 times over again! (ok minus the nasty pacat that were swirming on to our bodies by the hundreds)


the steep climb



it was ultimately breathtaking

at first i didn't wanna dive in becoz i dind't bring any extra clothes to hike back to camp (takut my wet clothes would attract unwanted leeches hanging on) but after the girls persuaded me on what i would be missing out i just forgo all my worried and dived in with all my trekking pants ,hehe..the water was cold and fresh and it was damn relaxing..

the way back we crossed a few rivers

after hiking back, having our showers at the camp (memang ada proper showers and all) we gathered for dinner after maghrib and while waiting for dinner to be prepared we played with intelligent games made by the asli community there. sumpah susah ok, mind boggling la jugak


and also sempat tolong the aslis' anyam their fishing equipments, i really wove a few lines ok! hehe


after dinner it was time for our nite walk, we bought our torchlights but most of the time the jungle guides requested us to put them out, walking thru the thick rainforest at nite with all the weird animal sounds can freak u out a bit, but memang appreciate nature sesangatla

us taking a picture at the foot of an enourmous tree, we also got to see a lot of glow in the dark mushrooms and we brought some back to camp. going back to camp we headed bak to our huts and i slept like a baby in my snug sleeping bag till morning where we overslept and were almost left by the group!!

heee, trus me and kak lin lari pkai kasut and hangkut bag pegi hiking ikut dorg, we skipped brekfast but then the jungle guides came after us and handed us our packed mihun, baik gilaaaa

next trip was a longer one, 2hours one way on foot, to Takah Tinggi. it was tiring (mostly in our minds all the way was 'are we there yet? are we there yet?) but it was mostly trekking on flat track along the river, not as steep as the first one.



after eating our breakfast, we slipped in for a swim and dive :)

after berhuhaaa, we trekked the 2 hours back to camp, perut dah lapar tahap gadan, sampai2 terus amek nasi and lauk, didnt even bother to take off our trekking shoes yet, membiarkan pacat yang tegar tu bloodsuck for some extra time

our next activity (water based! my favourite!!)

the water tube trail!


tube water rafting! thrill gilaaaaa

after that me & maj swimming swimming sepenuh hati,
we are at heart beach bums

by the time all that was over we had to pack our bags for the ride back to kl

sebelum balik pose kat jambatan gantung



this is before i slept in the 4 wheel, penat gila, tp i had a hell of a neck pain after, pls dont try sleeping in a 4x4 when its drving on really bumpy tracks, hee

Cameron Highlands & Hubby's Birthday: 26th-27th December 2010

Out of pure luck and coincidence, syg's office had organized a course for some staff to be carried out in Cameron Highlands, jauh tak jauh dari kota kinabalu rite...and to make things so much more best gilaaa, the course fell exactly on hubby's birthday!! weeeee..rezeki btul rasenye, dapat flite tiket free pegi balik & spend hubby's first bday as husband & wife together, priceless ok!

thus syg signed up, and requested his office to get him an earlier tiket so he could lepak with me a little longer ;) on sunday we were up up and away to Tanah Rata.

we booked a room at Heritage jugak same as syg's colleges . 
bernasib baik , last minute ada empty room

ni gambar dah nak balik dah ni, syg bru habis his course so we continued our sight seeing till 6pm, this day was his bday, i originally wanted to get him some ray bans, but after the idea of him sitting on them, i decided to put that idea on hold and thus i gave him a real cool back-pack with lots of pockets (that he loves) and also a compartment for his lappy top :) oh plus the la senza suprise, hahah
