2 Days 1 Night of camping outdoors
Reminds me of Rinjani all over again
This time it's a more grow up version, since we need to carry all our stuff, cook on our own and pitch the tents on our own. 

Everybody nearly got lost, until our group (2) realised that something is amiss due to the lack of routing (we created routes by forcing our way through vegetation). First group was too far away to turn back, so they went up the most challenging mount before coming down while the rest of us slowly turned back to the right route.

Dinner was kinda a laughing stock since we spent 4 hours waiting for the rice to cook. In the end, we had semi-cooked rice just like that since we ate all the dishes already. Dishes meaning hotdogs, sausages and pot of veg + balls + shabu soup. The dessert (Sweet potato soup) is good though =)

Breakfast was again kinda fail, with sausage and macaroni. Love the mocha latte though.

Ambush of cows and bees, but we finished the hike and returned back to civilization in the afternoon.

Back to reality, back to homework ='(
