Hitting the road again

Audio : Listen
Freaky weather! It was warm in the morning and then it suddenly rained at around 1230hrs. Right this moment (1441hrs), it is hot like hell. Siao! How not to get sick?! Aahh...
This June holidays, the family will be going to Malaysia (again?!) for a trip. Our last holiday there was a road trip about 2 years back. We drove from Johor Bahru all the way to Cameron Highlands, back to Kuala Lumpur and then back to Singapore by train. Along the way, we stopped by Mount Ophir (Gunung Ledang), Malacca and Genting Highlands. That was pretty much a trip up the 'gunungs'.
This time round, we are planning to go to the National Park - Taman Negara. Taman Negara is home to the oldest rainforest in the world. Hmm... wonder if we can find Treebeard walking in the forest! Haha!
Things I would like to see/do/visit:- Walk the Canopy Walk
- Hit the Jungle Trails
- Find a Rafflesia
- Smell some guano
- Have fun in the river
Things I would rather miss:- Leeches
- Ticks
- Cannibals <-- ok, there aren't any there ok!
- Getting sick in the forest
- Running out of clean water for drinking
- Experiencing cleaning my arse with leaves/grass after taking a dump in the forest (Taking a dump out in the forest is cool... kinky even, but hell, I need proper 'cleaning tools'! *yah, dream on!*)
So, here is our plan - roughly.
| Singapore -> Johor Bahru | Bus, MRT, Foot | | Johor Bahru -> Jerantut | Express Train | | Jerantut -> Kuala Tahan | Boat | | Kuala Tahan -> Hotel/Resort/Camp | Van/Bus/Boat/Foot/?? |
We will be gone for about 4-5 days and by the sixth or seventh day, if no one has heard from either of us, please send a search party! Heeheehee!
Sorry to bro Calvin! Next time round I will include you if I organize!
