Rabbit Hutch Blueprints

29 May 2 - Teman Negara, jungle party

April 29

Departure from KL so for the Teman Negara rejoire. First delay, our 9am bus is canceled we must take that of 10:30. Off the last boat to reach the village is at 14:30 ... So c is a magnifying glass. We reach the village by bus. The boat ride is supposedly superb ... too bad it will return at least:)

And guess, we arrived .. in the rain. Nothing changes:)
And it was the shock. We just left KL and we find ourselves in this "village" yes There is no road just dirt roads between guest houses and restaurants are all houses on the water. C is incredible change of scenery. And on the opposite bank ... c is the jungle that awaits us.
We booked a 2 day trek in the jungle night in a cave and zouhh the dodo.
s Good for AC didn't sleep was very simple. For those who have memories of the bronzes are skiing, we had a rating of Italian us, no sex but the whole evening talking shop:)


30 and 31 April: treck party
and a breakfast appointment with our guide.
We knew that we would have to wear a sleeping bag and some canned ... but what they are asking us to take c is huge for our small backpacks: canned pasta, cakes, 2 bottles of water, mat, sleeping bag and mess ... ben c is nothing comes easy. Then c is the time of sacrifice: no spare pants or t-shirt, no camera. And here we are like mules load direction the canoe.
1h30 drive away our starting point: 16 km 2 days. It seems not much experience but by now the jungle can take 1h 1km climb when ca ...
We'll see, yet we admire the scenery and we enjoyed our lunch:)

arrives at the starting point, guide the boat down, I'll tell y. c is good. I descend a foot which pushes up a virtual s ankle (I even took the mud from the mainland), can turn back to the shore is not far ... and small skating artitistique ... bim bam boom ass in the mud ... it starts well, 2 days remaining! A photo for remembrance and we left. S is all we say, well the worst is already happening or when c is only the beginning of two days of galley. Lulu accused my 2 days like that we're all going to shit and can even turn back ...

We begin the hike, it s pressed quickly in the jungle without a guide, and c is not the journey is not better tracers. Cons by good news in relation to all that we could do the ride is relatively flat .. phew that because you have to reach the cave before nightfall.
only handicap of this course ... leeches arrived. As much as I'm getting bitten by any mosquitoes, leeches m much love anyway not bad! We were told to rub the wet tabas on us .. good not bin it works eh:)
The trek is really nice. The guide is a small young nice. He looks of elephant dung to see if they are long gone still has his machete with him and monitors the sounds of the forest. Bousse a somewhat cool ... I asked him if c is dangerous ... and response and "yes and I also am afraid j" ... uh .. cool:) I was not afraid before j! Basically do not cross nor elephants or tigers and will win:)

The day goes really well, we arrive at the cave before dark, time to wash in the river and the night is. C is good river anyway mega cold wash!
Small fire, another group of hikers we agree, few meals made from scratch and chicken and the dodo. But before: visiting the cave as a porcupine j saw him going to the toilet (in a corner of the cave what) and last beam of my flashlight for a rat ... good night friends:)

Reveil tranquillou night was, not slept very well the ground a little hard but enough is for the last 8 km. The hike is also
tranquillou the old, tired a bit more personal but it will go.
The ball of the day is not coming from me:) Lulu style I wanted to fall into the water passing over a brook to a tree and too boumm buttocks in the water. Oki mud funniest ante, but everyone can not be at my height:)))
Passage in trunks, under logs, river crossings, some mud everywhere leeches and we are back to the dugout.

Our only desire ... a shower! oki it was al cold water but then I expected! and we have clothes, backpacks while washing could gouano and is full of mud!
For a super burger dinner and sleep in a bed! Happiness tonight:)

The April 1
Today it will be the star attraction of the site: the canopy walkway. It s a course with rope bridges to go from tree to tree. Whole program.
Proof that we are not accustomed to tourists, we arrived at the course starting at 11:45, then we had to register as s no more than 4 people at the same time on a bridge and waited our turn ... We waited 1:30 ... more and we were the last to switch to other tourists! bin and just for AC AC was worth the wait:)
was able to take pictures tranquillou, jumping on these bridges to brief the tourists in our own way, guide the attraction closed behind us:) Genial, sight estait cool and feel quite nice. C was even too short.

We extend our hike from the top of the island for a view of the jungle and then we went through quite steep paths. Fortunately, the trek was not like that No, jy'd still:)

April 2
