pelepah waterfalls!!
over the weekend, peipei and i accompanied 4 other friends (can't say 4 friends, should be 3 friends + 1 extra idiot, who came uninvited) to go trekking in kota tinggi's pelepah waterfalls.. it was also to sort of celebrate one of my friend's birthday..all of us met up on a late saturday afternoon at woodlands mrt and made our way to kota tinggi from larkin bus terminal, where we had a sumptuous dinner of RM$0.30 satays and very cheap food.. yummy yummy! after that, we still had time to catch the first half of the england v/s paraguay game (which started at 9pm), before going on to a firefly cruise and subsequently retiring for the night in hotel seri kota..
the next day we were suppose to meet at 8.30am in the hotel lobby, but, that idiot not only woke up late, he took his own sweet time to wash up and change, and in the end, we only left the hotel at 9.15am for our breakfast..
we reached the base of the falls at around 10.15am after which we took a slow and easy hike up.. it was a water trek, which means most of the time we had our legs submerged in water! yeah! the trip could have been made more memorable if not for the fact that that idiot, who is a newbie in trekking, not only did listen to peipei and my advise on taking it easy and going slow, he also chose to clear some of the vertical cliffs in his own and un-safe style! arghh! as a result, he fell most of the time due to the fact that he wore army boots for the trek, which did not allow him to have proper friction and a good toe grip on the slippery rock surface.. but nevertheless, the rest of us truly enjoyed ourselves by mostly ignoring him!
it was a memorable trip for me, and i think i can say so for the rest as well (except for him).. and last but not least.. happy birthday to lianna!
