Splish Splash

I am up really early today as my friend, Arif, wants to take me somewhere for fresh air to help me blow away my rotten bugs. I have no idea where we are going, but I have to be at his for about 7.30 am – on a Sunday! I ask if there is anything I need to bring, and he just says that I probably need a change of shorts and t-shirt as the are likely to get wet… 

Anyway, I make my way to his place and after a coffee we head out towards Ampang. We are going to Hutan Lipur Sungai Congkak – which is a waterfall / stream / camping area about 30-40 minutes from the city and being so early in the morning, the temperature is cool, weather is fantastic and there is no traffic on the road...

We park the car and make our way through the resort to the furthest spot away form the car park – to keep away from the other tourists that would be gathering later on, and to give us a bit of privacy whilst we strip off and splish splash about in the water. Privacy was also needed to protect the Malaysian public from my belly!

The water was amazing - freezing cold and so powerful it was like a massage, just what I needed after feeling miserable for almost a week.
