Broga Hill ... in the rain


... the will power of life ! No stone is too hard





it rains as soon as we reach the top.
... yet, we come prepared !
it was surely strong wind and heavy rain !






... after the rain, the sky turn blue-est


not a far distance away, rain continue to pour



sunlight forcing its way through the clouds



at the highest peak !

dark cloud are re-gathering , its time to go ...



raining on the way down.....


surface runoff : the rainwater flowed down through the walking path

Broga Hill 之 秋意

《鸽子》 胡适
.
云淡天高,好一片晚秋天气!
有一群鸽子,在空中游戏。
看他们三三两两,
回环来往,
夷犹如意,
忽地里,翻身映日,白羽衬青田,十分鲜丽!

Broga Hill – Upgraded

This is n-time of me hiking Broga Hill, so finding my way up is not a problem, - sap sap sui - even in the darkness of the night. Though, it was quite blur-blur for me for the first time too, a GPS wont be of much help when we are in the middle of nowhere. ..

Good news everyone !
.
Someone ( an Outback Adventure Camp ) had taken the liberty of erecting a direction sign at the entrance. With the sign there, at least first-time visitors will be more certain they come to the right place, especially when the staff of the Rabbit Farm opposite the road don’t even know where is Broga Hill ( maybe they are tired of giving directions to those not visiting their Rabbit Farm ).

The signboard writes “ Bukit Broga ( 1.7 km ) ® “ and “ Gunung Tok Wan ( 4.8 km ) ® “ in white on a black background metal board.



About 5 minutes through the oil palm field, another sign indicating “ This way to Broga Hills“ at a junction. This junction is very crucial as the road at the left, which is relatively even, leads to nowhere. ( according to Cat, it’s the long way up. Takes approximately 2 hours journey ) The road at the right, somehow is uneven and rocky is the road to the top.




There are several ravines along the way, which are as deep as it can get. Surely not fun if fall into one of them. The ravines are most probably formed when soil are eroded by running water.

I would recommend all to have a relax stroll up. Why the rush ? The hill won’t go anywhere. Conserve your energy !


Enjoy the flora along the way. .....





The view is breathtaking too ! ....




Once reach the edge of the trees ( meaning no more shades ), it’s another breathtaking sights – field of grass ! Then you know you are on the right track......

There are 4 peaks at the top. Going from one peak to another is not as easy as some may think. ( that ‘s why I said : conserve your energy ! ), but it’s ( walking through field of grasses ) surely something unforgettable

The last of the peaks is a rocky one. Bruised, if not careful. Tough at some point, but it’s all worth it when you stand at the highest point – stand in between earth and heaven….


Enjoy the journey !

大街的包子摊

在沙城有一个面包师傅,在城里的大街摆个包子摊,卖包子糊口。日子还挨得过去。


面包师傅很有上进心,把祖传的制包秘方加以改良,终于制出一系列的好包。


包子摊的生意从此就蒸蒸日上,客似云来。
大街于是热闹起来了,车子多了。


泊车位满了,路边也泊满车子。
“买包子罢了,泊一下子,不碍事!”大家都这么想。


从此,大街的交通缓慢了。
本来一口气可以从街头到街尾的车程,现在需要一辈子了!



面包师傅高兴极了!财源滚滚来。

他没看见。。。

爸爸赶不及回家烧饭、妈妈来不及送孩子上钢琴班、

救护车来不及送病人到医院、救火车赶不及去救火

。。。





闻名来买包子的人不介意排队。

他们不知道。。。

情人约会迟到了、朋友喝茶也迟到、

校车里的小孩咔在缓慢的交通里回不到家、下班的打工仔在车里嚼饼干。。。

只有十句话,我却看了十分钟


  
第一句
如果我们之间有1000步的距离
你只要跨出第1步
我就会朝你的方向走其余的999步
   
第二句
通常愿意留下来跟你争吵的人
才是真正爱你的人
  
第三句
付出真心 才会得到真心
却也可能伤得彻底
保持距离 就能保护自己
却也注定永远寂寞
  
第四句
有时候 不是对方不在乎你
而是你把对方看得太重
  
第五句
朋友就是把你看透了 还能喜欢你的人
 

第六句
就算是believe 中间也藏了一个lie
 
 
第七句
真正的好朋友
并不是在一起就有聊不完的话题
而是在一起 就算不说话
也不会感到尴尬
 
 
第八句
没有一百分的另一半
只有五十分的两个人
  
第九句
为你的难过而快乐的 是敌人
为你的快乐而快乐的 是朋友
为你的难过而难过的
就是那些 该放进心里的人
  
第十句
冷漠 有时候并不是无情
只是一种避免被伤害的工具
