Land Below The Wind III

So, this was the day that we were so looking forward. After having breakfast, we were ready for the hike. Let's took a group picture before departing!              

                               
                                          We are hikers of the day! Yeah!!!
Lunch of the day, with my fav chicken drumstick ler!


My name tag: M for Mesilau trail, but we took Timpohon; A for Group A; 17 is  the date, 001 is member no. ; E is for month of May


Many friends and even colleagues told me, they took Mesilau trail, 2km longer than Timpohon but with beautiful scenary. However, Jackz recommended us to take Timpohon which is 6km. His main concern was, reach Laban Rata rest house earlier for good rest before continuing the journey to the peak next morning. So, in this case, process is not that important, most important is, we manage to reach the peak, because we spent so much for this trip and our main intention is to the peak, sight seeing throughout the trail is just adding point for the trip. :) 

So along the journey, me and Siew Pei hiked together. We did stop half way for picture shooting. Timpohon trail has nice view too esp in kilometer 5, exactly like what we learnt in Geography last time haha.

We spent most of the time climbing together 

Saluting them for able to carry such heavy backpacks
Along the road there is sign board stating that we were in kilometer 0.5, 1... to 6km, these were the motivation that keep us moving up. Another motivation was, those climbers who gonna climb down keep encouraging us. Thanks for their support though we dono each other. :) 


At about 1.30pm, yeah, we reached Laban Rata rest house. I was like, AT LAST! 


We bathed then rested for awhile after applying counter pain cream. Our legs were not that pain yet, just sore. "Dinner" was served at around 4pm, haha, our biological started to go upside down, having dinner at 4pm?!!! 



Everyone with coverall.
After fooling around and snapping pictures, we went to bed. Yea, went to bed even before 8pm. Haiyo, really having difficulty to fall asleep, for a person who used to sleep at 12am during normal days. So during supper time (2am), we all where blur blur. Putting on head light, wind breaker, hand gloves, we were going to continue the unfinished journey!
