Macritchie Reservoir, The Trekking Date
/
0 Comments
When we decide to be spontaneous and make the best out of an entire day, we'll have an extraordinary outing to somewhere we don't usually frequent. In this instance, trekking at Macritchie.
We had a close to 20 minutes 'warm up' session because the bus driver ignored the BUS STOPPING sign and continued to drive for another 2 bus stops before finally stopping. Plus, we realized we were walking in the wrong direction cause there was no way for us to cross to the opposite side of the road.
Well, just treat that as a warm up.
One of the entrances.
Alice in the Wonderland? And why is my siz glowing? Vampire in disguise!
Picking the best sturdy branch.
Came out of the woods to a breathtaking view.
*inhale, exhale, repeat the same motion*
There're always signs at every junction, ensuring that we get to where we want to. Best for direction idiots like me. Throw me a map & compass, I'll probably just die in the jungles.
Ran up the green slope which is supposedly within the area of private property. Just a golf course. Sat on the patch of damp grass munching on snacks while overlooking the reservoir.
Two sleepy faces
Continued on The Journey to Treetop and spotted this bird that is totally unafraid of us. We were squatting in front of it and all it did was to continue looking for food.
Then came the steep slope to the Treetop where the gang of monkeys are. Every encounter with monkeys always makes me realize their uncanny resemblance to human beings. There was one mischievous monkey sitting face to face with another friend of his/her and nonchalantly plucking his/her friend's chest furs!
Never look back in life.
Imagine halfway through the bridge, there's a grizzly bear charging right at you but you can't turn back cause this sign says so!
Finally!
Trekked for around 2-3hours for a walk across a bridge that lasted less than 15 minutes. But, the view and company can never be measured against time.
Down we go
Never once did I forget to count my blessings and you, my siz, is one of my irreplaceable blessings. The unspoken words among the silence during the trekking. The strength of support that is contained in an invisible pillar between us. All the countless moments I have with you. We know each other better than the horoscopes say of us. Thanks for being my love one which is why I love myself, because if I wasn't me, I wouldn't have you and I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else than be in this family of ours.
