Eagle Ranch - Day 1

Day one of the trip... we all gather at TPM at 7am and went for breakfast at Sri Petaling... later we left around 8am or so... we reach our destination around 9.30am...



We are serve a light morning break before we start our indoor activities... we have some games and team building activities...





Everyone has a value... it may be small but when the time matured... so does the value...



We are given 12 nails and one nail on a stopper... we are ask to put all the nails on the nail with stopper... the idea is to make the shape of a roof... click the picture to view bigger... there are other activities too... but not gonna cover all... cant remember all too... hehe...

After that, we all had our lunch...



...and went to our room to rest and put our luggage...



Above is the place where we stayed for the 3 days... it's actually 2 rooms above and 2 room below... the rooms are connected in the middle with doors... all our rooms are located below... it make it easier for us...



After resting for a while... in the afternoon, we all suit up...



It's time for WAR!!!

But before that, we were divided into 4 groups and each have to come out with their strategy... it's all about team work...



Before we rush into the battle field... we were given a brief talk on the rules of the game... and we were also given chance to practice our shots...





After the war is over... we all decided to go to the pool... swimming! yeah! cause we have a couple of hours to kill before dinner and the night activities...

We gather at the training room at 8pm (if not mistaken la... forget dy...) we are going jungle trekking... we were divided into 2 groups... and were given 2 torch light and 2 compass each... then we were briefed on the rules and how to use the compass to find our way...



This is the first group... they were lost... hahaha... and on their way they saw a snake... lucky or not you decide... cause the trainer say since they started this till now, they never seen any snakes around... it took them 1 hour and 20 minutes to reach back...



This is my group... we took only 50 minutes to reach back.. hehehe... we almost lost ourselves too... cause the person say to walk about 50m to reach the check point... but we walk like double or triple of that... when we reach 50m (we have a counting system where 150 steps are considered to be 100m... just an estimation...), we could not see anything in sight... so we switch off all the torch light to look for a light source but to no avail... the only light source is the moom light...

But we all decided to walk straight forward to the way the compass was pointing us... and we made our way through... it was an experience indeed... is was very very extremely dark... the only light is from the moom... and luckily there was a full moon that night... the view was nice too... we actually stop a few time just to enjoy the scenery and the full moon...



After the trek... this is what happened to our shoes and jeans... all muddy... cause it rained in the evening after we went swimming... luckily it stopped before we jungle trek... so, that's all for the first day... hehehe...

P.S.: the pictures are all mix together... too many cameras... most of the pictures are taken by the trainers... I think you could tell from the quality...

Stay tuned...
