Video - The rope part...

Video - Are we there yet???

Lyrics - Sayang Kinabalu (Song by: Kimin Mudin)

Tinggi tinggi Gunung Kinabalu
Tinggi lagi sayang sama kamu
biru biru hujung kinabalu tengok dari jauh
hati saya rindu...

Kinabalu dekat di kundasang
banyak sayur bulih pilih pilih
apa guna pergi luar negeri naik kinabalu
hati saya rindu....

sumandak sumandak pun ramai menunggu
menari-nari lenggang sumayau
sekali melihat melepak kulitnya
saya jatuh cinta....

saya sayang sayang kinabalu
kaamatan pesta bulan lima
sayang sayang kita pergi tamu jalan tamparuli
hati saya rindu....

Kinabalu dekat di kundasang
banyak sayur bulih pilih pilih
apa guna pergi luar negeri naik kinabalu hati saya rindu....

sumandak sumandak pun ramai menunggu
menari-nari lenggang sumayau
sekali melihat melepak kulitnya
saya jatuh cinta....

saya sayang sayang kinabalu
kaamatan pesta bulan lima
sayang sayang kita pergi tamu jalan tamparuli
hati saya rindu....

sayang sayang kita pergi tamu jalan tamparuli
hati saya rindu....

Mt.Kinabalu Beckons....









Lia, Mel & Barbara....baru sampei Pines Resort Kundasang...senyumlah puas-puas...












5/April/2008...Yes, Kita Boleh!!! All so excited before the climb...still at Pines Resort










I wished I was at home...relaxing watching TV...makan kuaci, minum cola....what in the world was I thinking....???!!!!














Alright...tu dia...wirawati dari bumi kenyalang...siap posing for the camera agik ya. Looking good bebeh!















Nyak meh....baruk sampe Laban Rata...what a relieve....Soooo damn tired but still able to put a smile on the face just for the camera....











Sunset at the Laban Rata....We all take a rest for the night cause our big climb to the summit will be the next day....













After a good night's rest....Just look at us....so eager and excited...looking fresh & fit....and fully determine to reach Low's Peak. ....(yeah right.)









Jabinus giving a helping hand to Lia..."Jangan Pandang Belakang Ya....nanti kaki gementar, jatuh bergolek-golek nanti..." said si Jabinus.
....From a distance........ Barbara looking at Lia's behind ....... takut kenak timpak. kahhahahaha...











Ish..ish...siapa senyum kambing tu...nampak gigi jer (am refering to the person next to Lia)......
















Taking a rest after a fearfull climb... and also photo session lah...











Yes! We've reached Sayat-Sayat the last checkpoint.













Look at that view....FANTASTIC....basically we're above the clouds...Practically on top of the world.














With our roomy Doctor Vasantha....behind us is the south peak.







Yes we did it, we have reached Low's Peak on Sunday 6th April 2008. It was my 2nd climb. The 1st time I did the climb was in August 2007, but it was Lia's 1st. The feeling of reaching to Low's peak was amazing. Everyone can do it if you're determine enough. As for Lia, she had gone thru a lot of pain, altitude sickness, diarrhoea, fever, fatigue..etc...but nevertheless the 4 "Ds" of Hock Siew "Desire, Dedication, Discipline & Determination" that made her reached the top.
BRAVO.









That's me playing around with Peters expensive Camera.....aoklah eksen maok jadi professional photographer kedak Pak Peters.

















That's South Peak....and for your information....the south peak picture can be found on our 1 ringgit note.











Our last day di Laban Rata...before turun ke Timpohon...a group photo with the Penangites Gals (Intan,Nurul & Dahlia)





















I CAME, I SAW & I CONQUERED.

Left 1km to Timpohon.














This is in KK town. We had our sumptuos seafood dinner...don't we look cute there....kaki sakit tapi maintain muka mesti cute.
















After our good night's rest at the Berjaya Palace Hotel.....we're on the boat to Pulau Gayana for our next adventure...Snorkeling..










This is Pulau Gayana. Cantik sik.














Lia all geared up for snorkeling.......hah....the guy with the small blue trunks is Mr.Singapore lah... dun pray-pray....













Hey...that's me underwater....

We spent almost half a day at the island. Bukan main hebat lagi.....dari gunung sampai ke laut...
