Got The Attention , So What ?

slept at 3 am today morning ..

watched football match ,

Liverpool VS West Ham United

which is pretty worth watching it cause Liverpool won 3 goals .

haha yeah . good credibility to Glen Johnson , Dirt Huyt and Maxi Rodriguez .

so yeah .

then woke up at 7.10 am , prepared myself and everything ready ,

headed to Dark Cave , which is located near/beside Batu Cave .

before that , went to have a simple yet delicious breakfast at Lima Bintang Restaurant

(so called 5 Star Restaurant) haha !

then headed to Batu Caves .

meet up with all the members .

Chen - Aunt SW , CCL , CTM

Leong - P.B Leong , SKYH , LTZ and LXL

Giam - GHK , GCW , GCY , and GLA

and of course , the VIP : Uncle Don (old friend of my papa's) and his brother , that manage a company called Cave Management Private Limited .

climb 204 steps out of 272 steps of the Batu Caves .

reached the side/ entrance of Dark Cave .

it somehow connected to Batu Cave .

Uncle Don give some briefing about the Cave , how's the cave is form and a little history of if .

and also , formation of the limestone and all .

interesting discovery facts which makes me wanna be a cave woman .

as in like do plenty researches about caves and all .

this is to preserve the caves , prevent extinction .

so yeah .

after 15 or 20 minutes briefing about cave facts ,

then we start our journey . everybody dress like they afraid stung by bee and mosquitoes .

lmao .

outfits are super hilarious , but hey is a good one instead . especially uncle don's one . haha :)

beginning of the journey was pretty cool and steady , got no any difficulties .

come to certain part , especially stairs climbing , sort of tiring . and is stuffy some part which make me 'SMOKING HOT'

haha :D

anyways , journey are pretty normal after that .

awesome limestone formation , beautiful , attracting , shocking point of view

cannot-see-at-other-places stones , plenty of it there .

too bad i don't have any tools to take a piece back as a remembrance . lols :)

ahaaa . by the way , the stone are pretty cool though . unfortunate that i didn't bring my dslr . papa said is a bad idea of bring it . so yeah . is true , so i have to depends on chung yuen to capture all the wonderful and awesomeness limestone , a little of beautiful view/scenery . will take from him once i meet him up , perhaps next week and upload it to my blog .

(gosh , plenty of pictures need to upload . yikes)

while we're walkin'/trekkin' during our journey , Uncle Don did some explanation about how the limestone form and scientific name of it .

also , how is part of this cave and all sort of cave facts :)

plus , we saw 2 snakes while we were in our journey . that was amazingly cool .

and the funny thing is , the snake are awesome itself , it goes to us , and form a line ,

indirectly telling us that ,

[hey you human being , i'm not gonna let you cross cause this is my territory]

and then it slide towards the side , and got this guy , uncle yee took picture of it , and the coolest thing about the snake is , the snake stayed there , without moving , in order to let uncle yee finish his job . haha . cute though . and then , the snake glide slowly aside , like he/she showing off its skin color and the body size of his/hers . lmao .

after all , its skin color was beautiful :)

then another wild time is where , when we walked , a group/ a bunch of bats flying above us , can hear their wings flapping loudly plus the voice they make . it was super noisy for the others , but for me , i think this is pure nature . i love when the bats scouting away with their voices out loud :D nature yaw ~ :D

then come to the most exciting part , where all of us have to get our whole body full of dirt , cover with mud , due to crawling in a very low and small space/area that full of mud .

ahaha gross , isn't it ? but for me , is awesome , way awesome than i thought . wink ;)

it takes like probably 10-20 minutes crawling in that particular small and low area which can only fir for 1 person . we have to squeeze ourself in number of small holes .

wondering how small is the hole ?

is like half of the size of a gym ball . yes that small :)

imagine we have to squeeze ourself into that hole in order to go to another area and of course to the exit ;)

so yeah . is pretty tough and few people got stuck , takes time to solve the problem .

but in my point of view , it was an awesome memorable experience one :)

we stayed at one part for a while , waitin' for the have-no-idea-where-to-go + first-time-crawling-VIP- ; Uncle Don to take the lead . haha funny one . we pass through many obstacles , different type of stones and all . in order to get to the exit . lols .

for a while , we stand up ; for a while we squat ;

for a while we crawl ;

for a while we sit ;

for a while we shout ;

for a while we scream ;

for a while we joke ;

for a while we communicate (while crawling in the cave , over the mud)

for a while we laugh ;

for a while we stop ;

for a while , for anything and everything we do ;

it was totally unforgettable ;D

a memorable caving ever ~

we definitely will go there again , thats what chung weng and i promised about :)

our next generation will be our children , said by Uncle Don to all the children .

which is all of us , shocked that i'm the first one to react . GEEZ xD

after finish crawling , walked back out to where we enter , rushing out , since our whole body cover with mud and the itch is all over our body .

we were like oh shooot , itchy here and there , means by every where . lols ;D

yes EVERYWHERE .

lols . and the most humiliating stuff is , when we had came out from the cave , everyone keep looking/starring at us like they've never seen people that cover with mud before . some of them even capture/photograph us .

we are in a way of being FAMOUS , wrong way , just not the right way . GAAH :O

people will be thinking , is only Batu Caves , why are you all so dirty ?

is it full of mud up there ? and all types of thoughts wondering in their mind .

anyways , we immediately rush to our cars , took off our dirty muddy shoes , and head fast to the toilet . paid 1 bucks for shower which is quite worth it . haha :D

charity to the temple ~

i usually shower like 15 or 10 minutes .

but this time after the caving , i showed like half and hour or maybe long than that a little .

perhaps make it to 40 . haha .

i make sure myself is perfectly well cleaned and ain't left any dirt and itch on my body .

WHOAAAAAAAA ~

this is how i feel right after i shower .

i feel extremely relief and light .

fresh air , cleanness all over my body .

soaps smells , shampoo smells ;)

it was just refreshing enough !

after that , headed Ravi Indian Restaurant , which i pretty fancy for the foods in that restaurant

i love the foods there . whenever i am in Batu Caves , is a must to eat there .

that is also consider part of my papa's aim . lol .

the children , all of us , ate Banana Leaf Rice . oh my , that is certainly my most favorite .

workers there are all friendly and humble .

so yeah . the rice is tasty which makes me wanna add more (and i DID)

haha .

same goes to all the dishes , which is all veges . i'm lovin' it :)

practically , i'm all whole day vegetarian , for today .

didn't eat any meat at all . proud of that ;]

add plenty plenty of veges .

also paperdum (not sure what is proper spelling)

PAPER DUM , PAPER DUM ~

then chung yuen told me , don't east so much paperdum , later your PAPA DUM then you know .

i was like haha very funny .

well indeed ;)

so we continue to enjoy every single lunch moments with our tasty delicious indian delicacy Banana Leaf Rice , which we ate with our hand , except Teck Ming and Li Ann . pfffttt .

Prince and Princess . LAME ~

while eating , we did joked and chat , it was awesomely fun and hilarious where chung yuen and i recorded a super hilarious video . where ... you know ... will upload to my blog soon alright . :D

drank coconut water and ate with my wonderful and superb hand :)

hmmm , yum yum :) can't resist it . i want to crave more for Banana Leaf Rice .

have to go to Little India , Brickfields or Masjid Jamek . is a must , i must go for my Banana Leaft Rice ;)

we fulfill our stomach with satisfaction

after that headed back home . once reached home , lye down on my comfortably bed and took hours of nap . aha enjoying life :D

and yeah , my leg got injured a little .

as in injured scare , tiny and minor ones .

scratches everywhere .

oh not to mention my whole body is aching to the max . ouchh :/

need to go for a massage i think . aha yikes .

i'll be fine soon by the way , thanks for you guys concern .

tee hee ^^

last but not least , i had an awesome and memorable experience of caving .

it is as similar as Tempurung Cave which located in Perak but then Dark Cave is where we crawl with mud all over the place/holes in a very low and small space.

while ;

Tempurung Cave is where we crawl with water inside and there are a lot of empty and big space for us to move around , we can even stand too :)

but what i'm trying to send out a message is that , Dark Cave is the cave where we can gain many experiences , if people like us have been through dark cave (perhaps you might join next time) it will be much more easier for us to travel/caving with any caves in Malaysia . cause Dark Cave is ain't an easy task . so if a person manage to overcome the Dark Cave , then there wouldn't be an issue for the other caves in Malaysia . trust me , i've been caving for times :)

so yeah . i really enjoy this time caving a lot :)

ratings : FULL 10/10 .

thats all i guess . til then :)
