aunty n uncle :p
airen n i~~ so sweet >:D<
it was 4pm+...all of us were exhausted in stead of tired....so wi decided 2 go back 2 shah alam from here~~ wi all slept once wi started our journey back...hehe~~
On da way.....aunty suggested 2 go sungkai hOt spRing n asked whether wi interested not...SURE!! y not?? i miss hot spring a lot! during 2ndary sch, dad brought us, whole family 2 lake toba...n i've experienced da real hot spring which was originally resulted from da valcano's lava~~ wow!! i was so looking 4ward 2 da hot Spring in Sungkai~~
ta da~~ hot spring park~~
this hot spring park nestled in the serene and lush forest patch, hill, mountain streaams and rivers....u can easily find it once u entered Sungkai Toll n need abt 20mins from da toll exit...
way 2 reach da hot spring pool...
all along da way 2 reach da pool, wi walked on a bridge, n under da bridge r small streams n river which consists of da hot spring water tat in it contain suffer...
this 1 superb...da part of water underneath here was extremely hot, n therefore it produces da vapor which omost like sauna...
erRRmm...it estimate 10 2 15mins 2 reach da hot spring pool...n i was look so funny wif wat i was wearing...wearing skirt, sumore mini...2 hot spring park...hahaa...moveover, i wore pair of high heel...so odd!
take sumtimes 2 reach da pool...yiks...actually i wonder y wi were der juz like tat...like tat means without bringing towel, clothes 4 change or may b shampoo?? juz like tat....@ laz den i knew none of them except mi were so desperate 2 soak myself in da hot spring water.....
once wi reached, wi found 1 big pulic pool, which da water around 38 to 43 degree celcius(stated der)...not very hot i can say...coz da water actually is da confluence of both hot n cold water...n wat??! wi found tat da pool is kinda unhygienic...may b bcoz it open 2 public...
funny ppl...doesnt look like going "swim" even...LOL
continue 2 da way...u will reach da therapeutic pool, which consist of all kinda stone/rock + da hot spring water, it is actually a traditional massage tat blieves will bring positives effects...wi tried of course~~~ wakekekeke~~ it wan quite suffer when u soak ur foot in da hot hot water(da water here hotter than da public pool) n various stone...arrh @.@" pain!!
da therapeutic pool, many "ka ler fei" in my photo...haha
zoom in n hav da closer view
next 2 da therapeutic pool, oso 4 healing purpose(i think...)
other than da public n therapeutic pool, der is another open pool...seems cleaner...coz ppl dun dip da whole body in it...
@ laz, i proudly represnt u da FAMILY BATH!! which i m so deperate 2 try it out!! but airen replied was:"next time 1st!!" >.<" it is cleaner of course tat's y i was so interested...n it look like those jseries n taiwan drama those kinda of stuff...
this is in fact 4 those who seek 4 privacy....da temperature omost da same as da main pool, but it is within a beautifully landscaped and serene enviroment(tat's wat i wan!!)...wi can really relax ourselves and ease our minds while soaking in this pool...
dun think it is expensive...it is juz rm25 4 1hr(cannot soak too long...will die 1) 6 person a time~~ cool, rite??!! when is my chance?
as i say it meant 4 privacy...i juz able 2 capture da outlook...
after this...wi went 4 dinner...den backed bkt rimau...wowwww...tired!! but happy :)
