Trip 3 - Lake Chini

My 3rd oversea bike trip with Mr. Doz. Carrying two luggages, 1 hook to the pillion
[1310'07, 3:30am] We set off to GP Esso . Supposedly to reach at 4am but we was late. We arrange to meet Gerard at Bird Park to get white card from him as we doesn't have enough. While waiting for him, smart Mr. Doz forgot to engage 1st gear while he park on the down slope and the bike went rolling down and my helmet drop off the bike and rolled down the road *weep*
Though Gerard and Mr. Doz are riding sport bike, which are suppose to be faster, we end up being the last one to arrival. *opss hee*
We set off through North-South Highway until we reach our 1st fuel stop at about 7++am. Due to festival, the petrol station is not operating *faint* We end up having breakfast at a nearby Chinese coffee shop. Me and Mr. Doz had maggie noodles + curry veg + Tea-O and Bee Hoo + sausage + luncheon meat + Tea-Tarik respectively. ( RM 6.10 ).
After breakfast, we set off again. While I'm trying to put on my ear piece that belong to Ms Shan, I realise that the left side rubber piece drop off. Sad and having images of how Ms Shan will getting pissed over it, I spotted something black and rubbery on the road a steps distance away from us. I went over to take a look and YEAH .. it the ear piece rubber *haha*
Off we rode again until our next petrol stop (didn't manage to pump at the 1st stop). It located at some ulu place which I don't know where it is. *Move off again*
Finally around 10:30am, we reaches Tasik Chini aka Lake Chini. There was a slight delay as Jocelyne (mamajo) got involve in an accident as she self-skidded on the way up to Lake Chini.
Upon reaching Rajan Jones' guest house, we settle down in the 'lobby' area. The only room that we have access to at that time is Room 2. So everyone shifted their luggages into the room after dazing around lazily before they prepared themselves and off to lunch at the diner house.
Our lunch is been pack as a large group of us is going tracking in the jungle (I'm not involve! haha Cos Mr. Doz think he need rest). So while the group is tracking, we bought our lunch back to the guest house to eat. Jocelyne was with us as she was injured from the earlier skid and though she kind of a mama age, she is been control by youngster like us. *haha* She had to be constantly reminded that she is injured and refrain from doing a lot of this. As for me, I make sure she waited 30 minutes after meals before she take her medication. But she was so impatient and keep wanting to swallow it down. *interesting*
Just before dinner time, the tracking group came back and noise were all over. Leeches bites marks everywhere around their leg, sweat, wet and dirty. Almost immediately, a few of them went to shower. After all the cleaning up, we were given our room keys. Mr. Doz and me took room 6 (at the back) and we requested to have join room with Gerard so they took room 1 (at the front). It kind of like shortcut for us. *haha* Before we head for dinner, we quickly burn the anti-inset candles *haha* A bit kia su ho!
Had a romantic dinner at the diner house as there no bulb. They uses kerosene lamp and candle. Kind of dark and you can't really see what your eating. After filling our stomach, we entertain ourself with what ever we see. *haha*
For the 1st time in my life, I seen so much firefly around the trees area. Attempted to capture a photo of them but can't make it. Fooling around with scary images and stuff when we saw the village children is carrying logs to an area, then did we realise they actually arrange a performance for us. We have a campfire built for but didn't manage to get it burning as the logs were damp due to afternoon raining. However, the village children still perform for us as they planned. After that, its Oink Oink time.
Woke up at about 7++am the next day. Yawn! I'm a little lazy to type any more. For more details, read Mr. Doz blog at dozdoz.blogspot.com! *haha*But nonetheless, I'll show you all the images. There a lot though so... enjoy!
