day five

today suppose to be a free day but mum arranged for us and aunt's family to go rafting in kiulu river. about 9am the driver came and picked us up and drove us all to the the ending point of the river. the journey from the hotel to there is about 1hour+ . then we were took up the starting point and were given a short brief about rafting and safety precautions and all. after that, we then start our journey! the river was not that rough due to low tide so there are only very mild rapids and some parts even still water. which was no fun! well, i still prefer the one in bali it's rougher and more exiting! on the way, we were given the chance to stopped by to swim in the river! the water was very cold and we swim around for awhile before moving on. after hours of rowing the boat, we finally reached the end point. we were given permission to jump down the raft before reaching and so i did! water there was very deep, and cold of course. we swim around till we reach near land and i suddenly felt that there was a current pulling me! this is because there were many rocks near the shore and the current kept pulling me down stream! we try to resist it and quickly go up land. we then wash ourselves and then waited for lunch to be serve. the lunch was great i can say, chicken and lamb! fed ourselves well but fed ourselves well to the insects too! the ants kept attacking me while i was eating i thought it was mosquito but it appears not to be! i came back with bumps all over my legs! reached hotel around 3 went to swim again and hang around at the pool before going up the room to get ready for dinner. tonights dinner was on ourselves so , my mum made reservation in a restaurant in town and we all took the hotel shuttle there! food there was okay okay but cost damn lot! super expansive they even charge us for plain hot water! we then walk around town and finally took the bus back to the hotel. the time then was 830pm but me and my cousin planned to sleep early as we planed to wake up early~
