Hiking Excursion

Yesterday was such an eventful day. Went to Bukit Tabur,Taman Melawati for hiking. We started off at 8am. The group consists of 6 of my colleagues and 11 others from Hong Leong Bank. It was a good start as the weather looked great. I was the only one wearing shorts but thank goodness the land was dry and not slippery, else i will get many scratches(though i did get few minor cuts and bruises).

Overall, it was an interesting experience. We climbed up and down -crossing the hills. What i like most bout this hike is the rock climbing part. Quite dangerous,i must say as we swinged with the ropes, and climbed with our bare hands- testing our endurance and gripping skills!

In total,we spent about 5 hours!!But i really enjoyed the rock climbing part.Bee Teng(we called her spider woman) led us throughout the journey- this was her second time though. A big thanks to her, Ed, Too for they were really helpful and always watching over me!!

One of them said Bukit Tabur is even more difficult to climb than mount KK. So, i guess, mount KK wouldn't be much of an obstacle for me.:P

After lunch and getting ourselves squeaky clean, we headed down to Thai Odyssey at One Utama for foot massages. One of my colleagues and I decided not to go for the foot massage (the lady was way too persistent though,eeeewww), so we went to have mee suah(with oyster) at one of the shops selling taiwanese food.

Some decent photos i took:
