Yesterday evening, HQ and Ivy talked to me again regarding the Trekking trips in 2006. The two of them seem so excited go to so many places.
HQ posted me a website from PacWest listing the itinerary for a 6D5N Gunung Rinjani trek! Just click on the link and look at that beautiful crater lake! Simply irresistible man!
I was talking to one of my trekking mates when I climbed Gunung Belumut with SAC a few weeks ago - and she said she just conquered Rinjani the week before (4D3N of trekking). I didn't know that the whole trip including the airfare from Singapore to Lombok would cost only over SDG$700! I thought it was going to go into the thousands!
The itinerary we had in mind for Mount Kinabalu next year will cost also about SDG$700, but it consists of other things - more like an "exploring Sabah trip", because the whole trip is 8D7N, but only 2 nights would be spend on Mount Kinabalu itself. We will be doing other things like enjoying in the Poring hot springs, and white water rafting! Looking forward to it!
