Little Gal & Big Cars
I love cars!
I recently went on a little road trip all by myself...
start of journeyAs my trusty 121, Twink, will be going up to the great car garage in the sky next June, so i thought, i will just have some alone time with her.
Twink We decided to head up to KL and join my adventure travel operator there for a jungle adventure....
Geez...Twink is not meant to move beyond 90kmh long distance! Was trying so hard to stay awake and not have her overheat!!
Halfway through, Twink lost one of her eyelashes!! And it was pouring!!! Was trying so hard to see in the heavy rain amidst fears that the wiper would break off and hit a motorcyclist!!
broken left wiper3 and a half hours later, we finally reached KL city. Handed Twink over to hotel valet for the day....
Early next day, we drove to CJ's (my travel operator) place where Twink was left behind as I took 1 of the 4WDs out into Lata Kijang Jungle. Was kinda worried that Twink would be left without a kidney(aka, stereo system) when i return! But, ah well, lets just go into the jungle for some fun!
AND FUN I HAD!!!
I toppled over a 4WD during the obstacle course. THANK GOODNESS THE WINDOW WAS UP!!!
We had a ATV race. Haha it was great having wind and mud in your face at the same time!
We also went kayaking...some people have natural balance...I don't...
We did abseiling, river canyon walk, flying fox....woooo!! so much fun!
And to top it all, we had 5STAR, yes, 5STAR meals IN the jungle!
We had a chance to get the know the natives better, the Orang Aslis. They performed a 'Sewang' for us and made us a bamboo rice meal... These people are like superhumans! They can touch the extremely hot log with their BARE hands!! We couldn't even do so with 3 pairs of gloves and a pair of tongs!
Aslis preparing rice for usWe ended the trip with a chill out session at Lata Kijang Waterfall, a fantastic 350ft high waterfall.... such beauty!
Lata Kijang WaterfallCame back to find Twink still intact and well-rested!! Took a nice easy drive back to Singapore with wonderful memories!

Trust speed-demon shireen to wreck her 4WD. Isnt it a lil hard to topple a 4WD ? You champion i say !
Sounds like u had a ton of fun. Isnt it great to be outdoors next to nature ?
oh they used another 4WD with a winge infront to pull the vehicle upright and also out of the pit.
