Tukun Bukit Mertajam Hill hike

It is not an easy challenge for a rat hearted like me and HH. My initial guess is I won't able to complete the challenge at all. But my prediction doesn't seems to be true. Both of us completed the hike in like 2 hours, probably a bit slower than the rest but who cares, we made it! The dedicated photographer this time round is the guy in yellow sweaty wet plain pale yellow shirt. The first picture is the rest area we stopped at and the first we wanted to give up.

We rested for about 10 minutes and there is one fair lady who came over our rescue and promised us another rest area about 2 minutes walk from where we were standing, just around the corner. How I wish I can ran like she did in the middle of hefty hike..

You might think this is easy because we walked on tar road. It wasn't, because the incline are most of the time is like 20-30 degree.

Sometimes, you really feel like giving up because the strength that left over has been overused and your mind only can think of beef kuew teow soup and cold freezy coke.

We had the moment of serene and photo taking while resting. The camera man is seldom in front of the lense. I learnt up the name of the place we were hiking as Tukun. We were at BM at 8 early of the day hiking.

We felt the breeze and fresh air when almost reach the top. There was a phone call from the elite group from our team to check if we still want to get to the top.. Yes, we haven't give up. We aim for "exceed expectation" this time. Nah, this is our target, the communication tower!

We tried to pose like the fellows in the sign board. This is pretty weird.. Hahaha

Some of them really fond of a few puppies found on top of the hill. But it is not fair as only the one with white fur got most of the attention.

There is one girl hiding away from all the puppies. She kept herself isolated from the crowd because she scared of the furry animals.

The members lazying around for a few minutes before beginning the journey down the hill.

Like always, we tried for a group picture. FF is still fighting for her right to meet TM's parents later on our way back.

Resting after the hike at a tea house. I do not agree on the way of them conducting the business because they charged RM1.50 per head for cover fees which I think they should not do that because we ordered food and tea.

But somehow, it did give us laughters and many smiles craved on their sweaty faces.
