Lost in Sungai Chiling

YAY!!
Am back in Melbourneeee :)
Didn't think I'd come back here for a long time.
And the best, best, best part is---
I FINALLY GOT MY DSLR!!!
(not so pro but... good enough for a camho like meee)
Gonna be snapping pics like ca-ray-zeh!
But I need to finish up with my uber slowmo updating...
Starting first up with--
Lost in Sungai Chiling (9th of Feb, 2009)
I still can't believe we got lost... I solely blame it on Joh.
Hehe. Okay, fine. Maybe the rest of us (Me, Julie & Kenz) should've paid attention instead of relying on Joh...
Sungai Chilinggggg.
Starting of our journey.... TO HELLL!! Or our misconception of "nature walk".
This was how the trail was supposed to look like all the way...
Our starting point. Which we were VERY, VERY happy to see 6 hours later.
Slowly getting rough. I believe we took the wrong route from here onwards.
First mishap.
Some pretty gross looking plants. Any one know what they're called?
Still can pretend to be hunky dory even though we were desperately lost.
The power of Crocs.
We found the river. But we didn't find THE waterfall :(
Spot the leech.
Break time!!
Roti Canai.
Nasi Lemakkk.
Yum, yum!
Back to work...
Still can pose... but to be fair, we haven't reached the grueling part of our adventure yet.
Teensiest frog I've ever seen.
A waterfall... the obvious wrong one though.
Icky creepy crawliessss!
Joh; working hard to get us out of the mess.
And it went downhill from there..
Couldn't bring myself to take any pictures then. Was too stressed out and to be frank, pretty damn scared.
But about 2 hours later--
SUCCESS!!
*wipes sweat*
Okay, I'll try to keep up with my updating...
Might be a little tough trying to do that while I'm in Aussieland but I'll do my best :)
