Eight girls and a guy decided they would make a road trip to Gopeng, Perak, for some adventure. So we drove a 400km round trip, went white water rafting, jungle trekked with a torch in pitch darkness and played paintball, all in just over 36 hours. Here is the evidence (thanks MA and Wawa for taking and uploading the pictures).
After brekkie, we were ready to head off.
My first interstate drive! Obviously, I didn’t tell anybody that before the trip.
And we made it to My Gopeng Resort on time.
Reta and I were hut-mates. The huts were only about 8 feet by 6 feet, just enough for two beds and a small table in between, but they were so cute. Toilets were in a separate building.
Adventure 1: White water rafting.
It was actually my second time white water rafting. I love anything to do with water.
It was cold!
We got back to base standing on the back of a lorry. Like refugees.
Starving by the time our barbeque dinner rolled around.
Adventure 2: Night jungle trekking. It was a little slippery and really muddy because it had rained earlier. You should have seen the state of our shoes after. That, and the leeches we brought back on us.
We got up early the next morning for adventure 3: Paintball.
It was my first time so I was really excited. We played five rounds: one search and destroy against another team, two capture the flags against the same team, and two against the marshalls who ran the centre because we had ammo left over.
Needless to say, we got our asses whooped by the marshalls. I got shot in the head but I think I unintentionally shot someone else in the head too. I now have a stunner of a bruise on my left shoulder so I look like an abused wife. I think there’s a picture of it somewhere.
