My Special and I spent the first three days of CNY at Taman Negara this year and you can never imagine how excited I was. After all, it's my first time holiday-ing in the wild and I gotta say it's truly an eye-opening experience. One of my favorites is the great boat rides with beautiful sceneries and the misty, cooling fresh air. Ahh... simply rejuvenating! :D
Apart from that, we also went for jungle walk and got to witness the amazing flora and fauna. It was pretty scary at times as we could only relied on our torch lights, heck it was still fun. Got to see a few insects but it would be better if there were more. (I guess noises from planks and people scared the insects away), hee...
We also went for the very thrilling canopy walk which was suspended in the midst of the forest and it's a great experience. I wasn't really nervous but as time went by, it began to fill me, especially when I felt I was swaying side by side. Yes, scary and exciting, both at the same time.
Other than those activities, we got to try the rapid shooting which was very fun and of course, it got all of us wet. It reminds me of those splashing boat rides at Sunway Lagoon, haha... And oh yes, I even got to be a model for Orang Asli where the tour guide drew on my face with some very interesting coloured stones that could be found by the river. Will definitely post a picture of that soon. :D And speaking about Orang Asli, we visited their village and learnt some of their lifestyle, including ways to start a fire.
Overall, it was a great and fun holiday although it was tiring at times. And am I qualified to be a survivor? Haha, not yet! Still, it's truly one of the unforgettable holidays that I ever had. ♥
And below are some of the photos that my Special took.

Basic long boats but sturdy :)
On the river
Can you spot the insect? And btw, a huge ugly spider greeted me and I was terrified. :( My Special was about to take a picture of it but it went away, hee... Must be my scream! :P
Ant eater slurping on the ants
A green stick insect. *Never touch anything in the forest. They are smart at camouflaging.
One of my most disliked insect - CICADA! Ugh... annoying!
Floating restaurants
Thrilling Canopy Walk
