Kota Tinggi Campsite 一日游

It is December again. I remember the time we used to have annual BB camping during this period. Since we are not in BB anymore and we dont have the time to join the camp anyway , we ,4 corporals decided to Kota Tinggi Campsite ourselves.

well , i dunno why i didnt take peter's photo down ... hehe.Kota tinggi is actually 50 Kms away from our place.. so it only took us about 1 hour to reach the campsite.

Well , few years never visit this place already . It has not changed much , except for the new concrete bridge now connecting the road and the campsite. I remember we used to hold our luggage over our head and walk across the river by stepping on the sand bags they place in the river. Then few years later they built a new wooden bridge. It was destroyed during the flood in kota tinggi and now this concrete bridge is what we see today ... It was raining for the whole morning before we went there and so the river is running fast and yellow in colour .

We were very excited to visit this place again . We went around the campsite and we decided to take a little walk into the jungle . We walk a brief 15 minutes into the jungle and fought our way thru dense jungle and muds .

We decided to cross the river and go for a small 'beach' at the middle of the river . Unfortunately , rain started pouring down and we are afraid that flash flood might occur .. so instead of walk back to the campsite via the river , we went back using the route where we came.
