Waterfalls 7: Pisang River


the cameraman posted the video about our 2nd trip to Lata Hammer when i was in Korea. i saw some comments; which the Boss mentioned that we should go for a Deepavali day trip. but i waited for 2 days to comment that i would love to come with them.

so 2 days before yesterday the Boss asked if i have any particular place that i would love to go. but i have no experience in exploring waterfall so i just say that i wanted to go to Pisang River (i knew about this place because they kind of always talk about it) simply because:

1. its near.

2. i am not yet fully recovered that i can walk and hike far like Lata Hammer, Lepoh River & Lata Medang;

3. while bringing a lot of things like how we grilled mackerel when we went to Lata Medang.

but the Boss said that he wanted so try something new; and he was afraid that Pisang River would be dirty as it is accessible very easily. so he said that we might be going to Setinggi Waterfalls.

we met at the Cameraman's house at 9 am yesterday. there, we once again discuss about where we want to go; but then finally the Boss came to a decision that we shall look at the condition of Pisang River: if it is not ok, then we shall go to Kedondong.

we were using my car and another car; a friend of the High Blood Pressure's car.

oh...

i havent told you. there are 9 stinking campers: the Boss, the Boss' Lady, the Boss' Lil Bro, the Boss' Lil Bro's Lady, the Firestarter, the Cameraman, the High Blood Pressure (HBP), the Dentist and me.

that was the first time i met the Boss' Lil Bro, the Boss' Lil Bro's Lady, the HBP and the Dentist.

so this time the HBP brought two of his friends (this is the first time i've seen them). the others are the Boss, the Cameraman, the other one who is also i've seen him for the first time: the Tabung Haji (TH), and me.

the Boss, the Cameraman and the HBP went there first so see if it is worth for all of us to also walk there. about 20 minutes later, we got a call from them; saying that we should us have ourselves ended up being at Pisang River.

so the ones left - the HBP's two friends, the TH and me - take just about 30 minutes to get there. the pond is small, i think it is just twice of Lepoh's. but it is deep for me. all those amateur divers played treasure hunt: they fill in a 1.5L bottle with sand, hide it in the deeper part of the pond and challenge each other to go find it.


i didnt play in the water like how i have played in all the previous water that ive been to; and i didnt jump like how i did in Kedondong. i'd have to restrict myself after a week of harsh play in Korea, especially T-Express, Disco Jump & Double Rock Spin.

later on the way back we go down to a waterfall that we've seen on our way up to the pond. we played there a little bit and head home.


im thankful that they are willing to compromise / tolerate with my request that i cant go for a too adventurous walk / hike and that i am unable to bring too much load on me like how i used to when we went for camping at Lata Hammer.

and so i met my objectives:

1. going to a waterfall

2. returning Boss' machete and Cameraman's kettle

3. giving the souvenirs that i get from Korea to the Boss, the Boss' Lady, the Cameraman and the Firestarter

when we the stinking hikers were gluttonously eating, i received a request from an ex-schoolmate to hang out the next day; which is today, but i had to turn him down.

with a reason.

i also received a request to hang out from a junior of the same school.

but i told her that i am not going to be available on weekends until after November 17th.

and a request to go "eat steamboat together" from a friend after i have decided to come with the Boss to this trip; and another request later last night to "drink tea" from the same person, but i also had to turn him down;

with the same reason i told my ex-schoolmate: i need to go to Kuantan - something happened.

i just got myself home at Putrajaya.

just now.

i am going back to Puchong tonight.

suddenly i feel like i am running out of time.

disclaimer: all the photos belongs to the Cameraman. again, no faces. :)
