Rumah Lepak before the hiking day
Breakfast was somewhere outside.. just realized that the background was Mr. Rinjani.
Ouch.. my heart trembled inpatient to meet him.. but can I reach you ?! The question that always in my mind since the last four months. Just the spirit brought me this far...
Far from left Swan Princess, Jay, Nad, me, Ayie,
down left Nana and Pakwan
Rinjani at the back
the other side of the background
The transportation to the starting point
I was the driver's co-pilot
(Hujan ni mase ni... malas basah)
The battles among tiredness, body pain and mental torture started. Am I crazy ? Who cares ?
Start walking..
thousand steps ahead..
walking through the villagers' farm..
My first walking group
Slowly moving..
enjoy the view
when some of us
Feefeeling Twilight at the clearing
Walking through Savannah...
Thanks to Mr. Weather, cloudy and dim
Some parts were drizzle..
The porter told that, this was the best weather as normally it will dry and hot. You can feel the heat.
Lucky us !
The first Pit stop
the walk continues
Someone says
"All truly great thoughts are conceived while walking"
But,
I didn't think of anything except to complete the journey..
All the problems were gone..
Why should I think of it ?
beberapa gaya lompatan terus ke puncak
Percubaan hampir menjadi
Hanya Pakwan yang berjaya dengan sekali lompatan..
Nad si gadis cilik
Ayu nyer...
KB yang ayu jugak
Kami Ladies Kental
Kami Pewai-men !
2nd Pit stop
Photography session started as we started the walking.
Never ending, even sleeping also has someone to capture the moment.
Zack's camera should be the nice one, this was just from S4, mini
Cheq Mi and myself.. photo shoot for Hindustani video clip
Nana and Zack took turn
The steps were distracted by the surroundings
Happy Ninja's Family
(from left Apat (the daddy), Ayie (son), Nana (dotter) and Wanie (the mama)
Huntung larrrr....
Waiting for the prey
Si Jay, *the prey approaching
Jali
Saving energy as well saving the water... limited water sources
Until we reached the post 3 for lunch
some of us already there...
in the rain
limited area
wet
no choice
just stand
and eat
As a hiker.. we should have no complaint.. especially for ;
uncomfortable
narrow
crowded
wet
coolness
tired
etc
etc
etc
Redho jelah dan pasrah
The journey continued to Hike... yes this time I will use a word 'HIKE' as we were going to hike a 7 steep hills. The local called it as Bukit Penyesalan. Let's see menyesal ke tak..
Since the beginning of the walk and hike, we were split into a few groups and recombined upon meeting at the pit stop. Members keep changing and from there we get to know each other very well. We are from a different group, strength, ages but we have a same target here.. yakni..
To meet Mr. Rinjani.
The bukit Penyesalan.. memang sangat mengah.. but the views keep the legs moving.
Swan dan brother Porter
Sekelumit keindahan
not even 1% of ilmu & kejadian Allah yang dapat dinikmati...
One of the porter praying...
and Nami and Jay
"memori daun pisang"
"Why you go this far.. just for a view ?"
"apakah kita masih terlupa untuk bersyukur"
Looking back.. the trail was gone, covered by the cloud.
We're hiking through the clouds
Terjumpa Puteri Gunung sedang bertapa...
Tak berani tegur.. nanti kene sampuk !
Jalan sambil baca apa yang patut...
Menyesal ko dah ke Zack oi ?!
'thanks to Mr. Photographer which I don't know who..'
and finally, after all the effort that we have put on, we reached the base camp
errr... not really... we don't camp here, but another 200m of walk to our camp site.
Peeewaiiiiii !
The Peak still far above.. even we have spent a day to reach it..
If the foot, knee, ankle can speak... they'll scream in pain...
But, if the eyes can speak... they'll thanks to the foot, knee and ankles...
for the views..
Lepaskan lelah dulu
Kanak-kanak riang jumpa tasik
Kepuasan....
and finally the view from our tent
(it's same but actually this was not from my tent... hahaaha)
Our journey today ended here at the base camp.
Sejuk....
Tomorrow will be another set of story
