Chapter 4 - The Backdoor

Round the back, AJ and Nat found the store. It was already 12: 45 pm. The putu mayam maker was airing the noodles. " Oh, their done making already!" AJ said. The guy saw us standing at the door. He took a wooden tool and gestured them how he had made the noodles.

"OK" AJ said after walking from the store. "Now we know to come earlier next time." They walked over to their bike and unhooked the helmets. AJ passed one of the helmet to Nat. But as AJ was about to put the other helmet on, Nat took it from her. "This is mine" Nat said. " The stinky one!" AJ & Nat giggled then got on the bike.

"Are you hungry?" AJ asked. "Yup! and very hot too!" Nat replied. AJ agreed. " how about some Cendol? that would be very cooling!" " OK" Nat replied and that's how it became a tradition.

Chapter 3 -Searching For The Putu Mayam Maker

"Map!" ordered AJ from the front of the bike. Nat flopped the map into AJ's hand. "Let's see..So we're here and we have t go there and then turn left..." AJ said. " I Hope the store doesn't close before we get there!" "right!" replied Nat. The traffic light turned green. And they were on their way.

"Well, it should be somewhere around here..and the map says to use the backdoor." AJ said as they walked down the road. "Here it is" AJ called awhile later... " but it looks empty!" AJ & Nat stood and thought awhile. Then Nat got the answer..." The backdoor!" Nat exclaimed " let's try the backdoor!" "Oh ya, right. we should have thought of that earlier" said AJ and was off with Nat to the backdoor.

Chapter 2 -Going

"Ugh!" Nat exclaimed, wrinkling her nose." This helmet is so stinky!" AJ chuckled. " I told you! That's why i changed my helmet. I wouldn't want to ride around with a stinky helmet on my head!" said AJ. The weather was hot and AJ & Nat were about to start a new adventure to town. Finally, Nat put on the stinky helmet and they were off to town, leaving Nat's little brother waving goodbye at the doorway of their house.

Gua Tempurung

My trip to Gua Tempurung in Gopeng, Perak was a awesome experience!

First we walked up steps ( 1016 steps to be exact) . Walking up the steps was tiring but looking at God's beautiful creation was super!! There were a few lights on the way as we walked up the steps, looking at the beautiful walls that made me feel so small. After finishing walking up the 1016 steps, we all slipped out of the railing s and walked a bit more. soon i found myself sliding down the soil, making my blue pants all brown and yellow. yuck! i slid down behind dad following his footsteps so i would not fall.

When half the time was done exploring the cave, the guide took us down a shallow stream to a sunny place just outside the cave. We stood in the water enjoying the coolness of it. When Uncle James started to skip stones, Cher Cher and I Looked around the riverbed for flat stones for him to skip. While we were doing that, dad discovered some sticky mud from his and ee ee's shoes. He threw it at the cave wall and it looked like a bat's poo poo!!!! =)
It looked fun. So Chrisa and I found more sticky mud and threw it to the wall too. i found a BIG blob of it. so my and Chrisa broke half to share. I broke my half into a quarter. One of them, i threw on the wall. The other, following dad, threw it on the roof of the cave.
Soon the guide said to continue the next half of the cave adventure( as i call it! =) )
As everyone was heading towards the cave again, i looked back to see if my blob of mud would fall on anybody's head....Too bad it didn't after all!!

The next half we had to go into water. We walked along the stream, carefully walking so that we would not fall in the stream. As we walked on, the roof of the cave became lower and lower.
Soon all of us was crawling on our tummies in the water. that was very fun!!!!!
But once i bumped my head on a stalactite. Ouch! =) After a few times of crawling on our tummies, we were done with our adventure.

The guide went away and left us near the exit, with the stream rushing strong on us. it felt SO good sitting there.... i felt like i was sitting in a message chair. just that it was filled up with water!! i felt so good!

When everyone was going, i was the last one. we were all holding our shoe, for we felt better barefoot. it was more cooling for our feet. =) When we were almost going up the stairs to dry land, i decided to wear my shoes back on. but as i was going to it slipped out of my hand leaving me with only one shoe. I tried chasing after it but i was always one step behind. then suddenly i tripped over a rock. then i managed to grab my shoe. ah...at last! But when i tried getting up, i was stuck fast down, because the water was rushing at me and a rock at my right hip was blocking me from getting up! With a heave i soon sat up and began to trail behind Dad, ee ee, and Cher Cher who all was bursting with laughter....

That day was super i tell you,
especially when God has made the creative cave for all mankind to enjoy! =)
