Water rafting - Busat, Sabah & Sg.Serdim, Kedah



Sep 2005, Busat water rafting is located at Beaufort, Sabah. I paid RM95 for the whole trip. I needed to travel about 1&1/2hrs from KK and then take the train about 1hrs. This is the first time i played advernture activities, i was so scare when i start to raft. Our guide's asked us to jump down the water and swim for 5mins. Busat river is bigger than Sg.Serdim. Me and Siew Yein (my lovely coursemate) follow the guide jump down the river at the last raft area. I was panic and holding the guide very tide. I think i was dead at the moment, but hopefully i was not. Haha.. It is a nice try, down scare and down panic when you are in the water.
May 2007, This is my second time of rafting so i didnt feel scare or worry. This trip is organize by Augustine (my LI colleague) and cost me RM95 (i think.. almost forget how much d. excluded any meals & transport.. wow.. extremely expensive). Sg. Serdim is locate at Kulim, Kedah. It is about 2hours journey from Penang. For advice, please go early and don't be late. Or else you will like us, waiting 2hrs for others. Sg. Serdim is excited than Busat water rafting is we have to pass one water fall about two story height from the top side. Omg, i was sitting at the front site. When they push the boat, i was shooting and then drop down the water for 5sec then only come out. I was drinking so much of water :P
However, Sg.Serdim water rafting is very dangerous than Busat one. You have to take care yourself when playing it. One of my colleague was drop down the water and knock the rock. Luckily he was minor injury.. The other interesting part i forget to mention is.. before we start rafting, we have to jump down the water fall about 5m height for test jump.. :D If you are brave enough then you have no problem. Or else, you will surfer..

Labuan~~ free TAX island like Langkawi

Labuan is a free tax island in Sabah. Labuan is a small town and a relax place. People like to go there only one reason, buying those free TAX products like liquor, chocolate and cigarette. One tin of beer is only cost RM1, so everyone is crazy drinking beer there. How about u? I went to Labuan twice, first time is when my first year and the second time is my second year. I take speed boat for my 1st time and the 2nd time we took ferry.

Labuan is not much entertainment over Langkawi but you can rent a nice car like toyota, honda, nissan with a cheapest price. As my friends told me, they just rent a toyota with RM45 per day. Haha.. i bought one bottle of wine & some chocolate for my friend and i bought nothing for myself. sad...
