11 AprilThis morning we awoke to boiling kettles and coffee, we got up got dressed and went looking for coffee and toast with peanut butter & blueberry jam or peanut butter & strawberry jam. After 5 slices we were ready to go. We packed up, quickly explored the cave to find all the annoying bats that kept me up all night and there were no shortages. We left the camp at 10h00 for a 6 km plus trek to the hide built in the inner forest. The pace was much slo...

7 AprilThe next morning we arrived at KL at 06h30 with a fleet of backpackers, the chase was on to see who would find accommodation first fitting the criteria of as cheap as you can get with as clean as possible for the price.
