Trip to Yannick's hometown 10/11/07

[qqmeng]

it was a sleepless night for freaky.

He sped all the way to Kuantan to meet me up at 4am after TT seesion in KL which ended around 12 midnight.

After meeting him in Megaview Hotel, we went straight to Sg. Lembing ...which s about 45mins away from Kuantan.

Had our breakfast there while waiting for Yannick and his friend.

climbed the Sg. Lembing hill in total darkness to see the sun rise...

#1 and #2 makes Sungai Lembing a "must visit" place. Beautiful set!

So when is the next trip? :cool:

[zique]

very the nice, I like the Burung coming in for a landing shot along with the landscape shots.

[Freaky]

So when is the next trip? :cool:

We will be planning a SA roadtrip here sometime after chinese new year, after the monsoon season.

We will cover the hill and the water fall, plus shoot around the villages. However, this roadtrip is one, which u must trek up the hill (30 min climb) and trek to the bush to the waterfall (approx. 40 min). So if you're interested, please start exercising...:)

where got difficult :P
like makan kacang putih lo .........
Bkt Tabur more challenging compare to Sg Lembing
the only different is :

1. Sg Lembing - start climb up around 5.30am where you need a torch, no climb needed as walk up the staircase

2. Bkt Tabur - start 7am or 7.30am where torch is not needed hahahahaahaha no staircase for you, need to climb

so what say you ?? which is more challengging ??? :run_away:
