We reached the little cafe near Deer Cave around 4.30pm, and waited until 6pm before we heard people screaming excitingly in all kinds of languages. We stormed out of the cafe.. and wow.. above our heads were thousands and millions of bats flying out into the open sky from behind the mountains in a group! We waited a little longer.. and more bats flew out in curvy wavy lines... beautiful! ;)
soon it began to rain and all of us headed home under the protection of the raincoats. The walk seemed endless, as the sky darkened and the sounds of the jungle got louder.. we increased our speed, and it took us an hour plus before reaching our dear dear hotel - Rainforest Hotel. We took turns to wash clothes, eat instant noodle, cereals, sandwiches and hot water bath! yep!
We then packed our bags for our next journey - jungle trek to camp 5 tomorrow. It would be an 8km walk, and we need to carry our breakfast, lunch and dinner at camp 5 for 3 days 2 nights. Imagine the weight of a 2kg rice, sardine, meat cans, bread, water, etc.. all packed in our backpacks. 8KM!!! we need to outdo ourselves tomorrow. The trekking would not be easy.
We prayed together that night, asking for God's grace and protection and strength. =)
