The Labour Day Weekend

We had a long weekend last week. It was our labour day which happened to fall on a Sunday and automatically Monday is a public holiday.

I went on a 4x4 Adventure trip. So whats this trip all about. Well the activites in this trip are
1) White River Rafting
2) 4X4 off road ride
3) Visiting of santuary of Elephants and blablabla.

Anyhow, the trip was good, but seeing that it didn't rain in Pahang so the river was pretty low tide. Hence the rapids wasn't that many and ride down turned out to be less exciting. But before the ride we had to do all the water confidence thingy including jumping down form the rocks to the river where the water was pretty swift. And also the capsize activity. It was cool tho' But becoz i had to take off my glasses, my head hurts after that and I spent the rest of the evening at the hotel restroom, puking. Probably due to the heat.

The second day we went on a 4x4 ride at Sungai Chalit. Pretty cool.. got bruises to show it. We went in using Grade 2 Path and came back using Grade 4 path. The grade 4 one was totally awesome but at the same time pretty scary. 5 of us at the back and 3 of us standing in a row , holding on to the rails. :) I am still waiting for the pictures to be placed in the drive. The ones I took is only when the 4x4 stopped. We also stopped at the water falls which was totally cool.
This isn't my first 4x4 trip. I went for one couple years ago with my ex company. That was we had to camp. THis one, hehe.. we stayed in an aircon hotel.

All in all I thought the trip was pretty good. And paying about RM240 only. For me it was worth the money but for others I don't know. Some people complained it was too expensive.

Well since these days, I can only blog from the internet cafe during weekends, I shall load the pictures another time. :)

Gosh I miss the free internet access at work thingy. And my new place has no phone line.. Sucks big time.
