Going Wild

I've been really busy as of late. Lots of articles to write up and I've been recently been watching this amazing anime, Eureka Seven. Now that I've finally finished watching all 50 episodes I've got some time to do other stuff.

Last week I went on a jungle excursion with Olympus into a forrest area new Tanjung Malim. Spent one night under the stars and out in the wild. Took up the assignment as it was something out of the ordinary.


Our 4 x 4 convoy stopped by Yik Mun where we had lunch and sampled the famous Tanjung Malim Pau.


The Famous Yik Mun Pau. To be honest I found the paus a little over rated.

Going into the jungle


Crossing over the first stream


The journey through the jungle was rough as the "road" was rocky and muddy. The car 4 wheel drive in front of my car was stuck in the mud.


Setting up camp


Putting up our tents


Just a stone's throw away from the camp is a small stream and waterfall.


As darkness falls, lights were set up near the stream.


Our cook showed lots of enthusiasm in his cooking. Wonder what is cooking? Chicken that's what.


We had a little telematch after dinner.

Some participant making teh tarik in the jungle. Suffice to say, we all sucked.

The stream is a nice place to cool down even in the morning sun.

After spending half the afternoon packing, we were all ready to go back to civilisation.
