Gerl Vs Truck

Today....a truck meet its match.
May the gerl spare some mercy on it.

Amsterbatz ... the day trip

Took me leave till the end of the year...wat to do ! wat to do !!!... and suddenly, the golden question pops up...
"Wanna to go AMSTERBATZ ?"...... and after a very much thought and carefull consideration which lasted for about 1min...me and me buddies decided ... Yehhhh !!!

Thursday morning, 28 Dec 06 ..had planned to met up with my 2 buddies @ Harbour Front. Reached there at 0730hrs and it was already full of people going abroad....and I though I was early..No more ferry tickets for the 0815hr thus we had to catch the next ferry schedule which leave at about 0930hrs... Under the bohpian act...we took it..


Bought some breakfast for ourselves and we began to proceed to the ferry for boarding.

The journey took about 1hrs to Amsterbatz....pretty much of normal routine..custom check, security screening..the long Q...the choppy water and watching "Pirates of the Caribean" on the ferry (comes with some crappy subtitles)...


...but overall, the journey was OK.

Once we've cleared the customs there, our first stop was the shopping mall across the road call " MEGA MALL".....
We being the early birds was greated with a " all shop still not open yet" policy..*damnz*....but luckly we found one which was already opened.. and provide the following services...

We thought for a while...Its either the Soft Blow or the Normal blow ?*wink* ....naahhhh !!! Me being a metrosexual men wannabe decides to try the facial services which cost Rp 40 000 ($8) and damn it was painfull...got pinch here and there all over my face...almost cried too....but the end product was good. My face was much smoother and pimple free and I feel fresh...Like the saying " No pain No Gain"..

Once we done, we had our lunch before proceed to the town called "Nagoya".. Since it being a wet day, our activities was contrained to indoor stuff...me had the intention to tried bungee but not too sure if there still is one there..

time checked and it was almost time for us to leave and we had book for our ferry back to Singapore @ 1730hrs...But not before another round of last minute shopping at Mega Mall.. Bro Chus. got a good deal for his "Mont Blanc" shoe.

as for me ... bought mostly baby stuff and 1/2 dozen dougnuts.

Although this was a short trip...it was indeed a good one...Will definately return for more shopping of dougnuts.... Yehhhh!!!

kampung daze ..

Ahhh...

Baby Sarah love that "simple life".
Woke up in the morning and she starts her day with her regular push up regime...*checkout those awsome biceps*

The Journey to middle-earth ???

Its be ages since I have climbed any mountain. On 6th Dec 06, I decided to try again one more time..Not to the top though, but enough to make my whole body cramps...

Me and a few of my buddies took off from Singapore toward Tangkak via the NorthSouth Highway... Stop by at Machap for a quicky breakfast.

.....and soon, we are back on the highway.

Activating my turbo charger, we reached the entrance of Mt Ophir at about 12 plus...






Since it is already lunch time, we decided that it would be wise to pack some food as there are no foodstalls in the jungle.


Had to pay $1Rm per person & $2Rm for the car at the entrance. Nothing is for free nowaday....






.......and the journey begins.





I have always remembered Ophir with its many step ... Had a hard time climbing it the last time and still having a hard time climbing it now..hehehe..something juz never change...only this time, me felt giddy halfway climbing it... must the low on carbo.*yeh rite*







Halfway climbing, we decided the take 5... Damn tired siak...

.....and then we continued climbing.















Climbed for almost 35min before we finally reached our destination....THE WATERFALL...
