Broga Hill

Two weeks ago, before the break of dawn, at 3.30am, Alan, Wan, Derrick and me went to Broga Hill... all still look sleepy at that time... but was hype to go there... it actually not that hard to go... but have to pay a few tols to get there... could reach within 30-45 mins...

We reach the Palm Tree plantation (the starting point) at around 4.30am... so we started to walk into the plantation... after a few minutes we only reached the hill's foot... then we only realise the climb has just begun... we used torchlight to light our way to the hill top... at some point we reached the forest and it's kinda dangerous... it's pitch black and we could hardly see anything... even after the eyes have adjusted to the night... when we reached the top, around 5.30am, it was a huge relieved...

It was still kinda dark at that moment... our camera could not snap any scenery around... but the view was nice... the air was fresh... and cold breeze is blowing...

At around 6.30am or 7am... the sun started to rise... but it was on the other side... yeap, the back of the hill... we could only see the light but no sunrise... there are 4 peaks and we are at the third resting... waiting for the sun... the fourth peak is kinda dangerous cause you have to climb using a rope for support... and the area is kinda small (accorsing to people)...

So we hover around and snap pictures... there was a hill os people there... and we make friends with a few of them where we shared our seating place... hahaha... and they helped us to take pictures... they also gave me some plaster as I (dunno how) hurt my leg and it was bleeding... and I did not feel it after we have found a spot to rest...

Then the sun rise higher...

We were at the third peak... over looking it is the second peak... as you could see, there's a hill of people.. the colourful dots are humans... hahaha... it look like a green tea ice-cream with sprinkles on top...

After snapping a tonnes of photos... our friends called and said the have reached to top... they came later cause they have some stuff to do... so we went to the second peak to meet them...

Took a few tonnes more photos on the way... hahaha...

And the sun rise higher in the sky...

Every where is green... nature at it's best... the wind was so nice...

Meet HJ at the second peak... the said YK and his gf are at the first...


The sun rose and could finally see it... although the sun is kinda high but it was still not hot... it was around 8am if not mistaken...

More photos snapping away...

Met up with YK and his gf (third and fourth from left) on the first peak... then also saw one of our colleague (first and second from right)... so we took a group photo since we all met up there...


To end this post... a group photo taken by Ali... the people we make friends with... a nice guy... thanks for the photo... and also the plaster... appreciate it...


Shall exercise more...
