Yesterday, went to Jonathan's house to stay overnight in preparation for today's journey. Woke up at 6.25am by Mr. Tay's phone call. Washed up and hop on to the car and off we go to Malaysia's Mt. Ophir!!! However, the excitment was being killed off totally by the Jam at Causeway. Waited at the custom for nearly an hour!! that wasn't the best part, the most important thing is we haven't taken our BREAKFAST!!!! After get off from the jam, immediately move on to the route to Mt. Ophir while search for stopover where food is available. After traveling for quite a while, finally found a stopover and bought some food. Indeed, like what Jonathan say, the food is really 'high-way' food. It was meant just for eating and doesn't really matter whether the taste is nice or not. After that, was another long drive, about 2 hours before we reached the foothill of Mt. Ophir at 12 plus. Gotten some information and details of the hiking from the ranger office. Its rather exciting when I 1st saw the mountain from far. Really hope that i could go for the trip which is in beginning of June. After that, we continue to drive on to Segamat in search of Jun wen's main objective for the trip : DURIANS!!!! We reached Segamat at around 1.15pm. Ask around n realise there is no Durian at Segamat!!! We have to move on to Ma PO which is 40km away... In the end, settled down at the Pizza Hut there and had our lunch. As Jonathan need to lend his car to his cousin at 3.30pm, we have to rushed back to Singapore asap. Ask the Petrol kiosk assistant how to travel to 2nd Link. In the end, have to travel up all the way to Yong Peng before turning into the North South Highway. By the time we reached the final toll, its already 3.30pm and everyone is really very tired. We reached Singapore at around 3.45pm and despite his tiredness, Jonathan still offered to drive us home. [:) Thanks Brother!!] 7 hours of traveling, distance of 500km, what a day.... |
