Kubah National Park

-

Taman Negara Kubah terletak lebih kurang 30 Km di utara bandar Kuching... kami ke Taman negara Kubah pada hari ketiga di Kuching dengan menaiki kereta Axia yang disewakan untuk dua hari iaitu ke taman negara Kubah dan Santubong... Bayaran masuk ke taman negara adalah  RM10 untuk seorang dan boleh mengambil mana-mana trek yang disukai ...




Trek di taman negara Kubah merupakan trek yang agak santai melalui jalan tarmac dari pintu gerbang hingga ke puncak Gunung Serapi (trek yang kami ambil pada hari itu). Sebenarnya terdapat 6 jungle trek yang diterokai dan memang tak cukup satu hari kalau ingin menerokai kesemua trails disitu... kami dinasihatkan oleh pegawai yang bertugas supaya ambil satu atau dua trail hari ini dan datang lagi keesokan harinya untuk trail yang lain...Bayaran masuk adalah RM10 setiap orang...


jalan tarmac terus sampai ke puncak
Disepanjang perjalanan ke puncak terdapat beberapa pondok untuk berehat kerana perjalanannya mengambil masa yang agak lama untuk pergi dan balik, iaitu dianggarkan 5- 6 jam... Alhamdulillah, kami hanya mengambil masa lebih kurang 3jam untuk naik dan turun...


Rayu trail menuju ke Matang wildlife centre
Kami mengambil keputusan untuk terus menuju ke puncak Gunung Serapi dan kemudian turun semula ke pintu dan memandu ke Wildlife Centre atas nasihat dari pegawai renjer yang bertugas... kalau melalui Rayu trail, ia akan mengambil masa 3jam untuk sampai dan 3jam untuk kembali...


the summit

Di puncak Gunung Serapi sebenarnya tiada apa yang istimewa untuk dilihat kecuali mungkin awan yang cantik jika cuaca mengizinkan... namun adalah menjadi satu kepuasan kepada setiap pendaki apabila berjaya sampai sampai ke puncak...

Sererusnya kami tidak melepaskan peluang untuk meneroka Matang Wildlife Centre... Perjalanan dari pintu masuk taman negara Kubah ke Matang Wildlife Centre mengambil masa lebih kurang 15 minit melalui jalan kampung...kami tidak perlu membayar kerana tiket tadi masih boleh digunakan disini....



Trek disini lebih santai dan sangat sesuai untuk kanak-kanak, terdapat pelbagai jenis haiwan liar seperti orang utan, hornbill, sunbear, rusa dan buaya... Semuanya di dalam kurungan...

Setelah berjalan selam lebih kurang sejam di wildlfe centre, haruslah kami mencuba Serapi Virgin Cocunut Shake, best in town seperti yang diiklankan...



Memang tepat seperti yang dikatakan, best coconut shake in town...

Best mango and coconut shake in town

going highlands

Before the end of the schools break, my daughters managed to persuade their dad to spend a day at Cameron Highlands. The original plan was to go to Bukit Tinggi in Pahang but he refused to go for some reasons. He has been busy with his work and study thus he he doesn't care much about going for holiday... i don't remember the last time we went for a holiday as a family... Weekends were out of question since there were more than half a dozen wedding invitations that we need to attend. So, anyway last Tuesday morning off we went to Cameron Highlands; just the five of us, hubby and I and the three girls who were beyond excited to go (none of the boys were going).   Since hubby had given a condition that he would be studying in the car all  the way if he was to go (his exam was on the following day), so  Sha was driving and I could tell that she loved every moment of it .. We arrived there at around noon and the place seemed crowded with people as it was ...

How to say no to your boss?

-
Well.....  the truth is you simply don't......it's something that I learnt that from my previous boss who advised me years back when I jhad just started my early career, the three magic words "never say no". Just the other day, I was debating with myself whether to say no or just accept my boss's suggestion (read: order) without giving him a slightest idea that I'm not capable of doing it ......it's kinda hard to explain coz it's not my job and I don't want to be a scapegoat to be doing it just because somebody else doesn't want to do it.  Anyway, it happened in the meeting, out of the blue like one bright idea bestowed upon him, my boss suggested me doing it ......which, no doubt appalled everyone in the committee and I was left absolutely stunned and speechless........obviously, I didn't make any comment and it was decided then.... Later, came few close friends playing devil's advocate......'This is not your ...
