A big shout out to Team Belum from Abang Paul, Kakak Kelley, Abang Kelvin, Kakak Emily and Abang Din!! We will not be forgetting the time spent with you guys in Belum. Here are some photos we took of you on our little journey together.

 The cooks. The girls Maddie and Yumma having fun cooking omelette for dinner.

First time experience for the boys, Connor and Elliott having no complaints at all peeling and chopping.

 Marinating the chicken for perfection.

 Firekeeper. Nasser keeping the flames alive.

 Singers in the making. The girls always singing their hearts out - their fave song “Forever” by Chris Brown on every boat ride.

 Going strong…They are one of the 5 rafts that made it round the island.

 All taking a breather and waiting to be towed by boat after rafting and soaking in the sun for hours.

 Water fight!

 We stopped by at one of the limestone outcrops that dates back about 400 million years and it has the primitive plant called “Paku Haji” (locally referred) hanging to it.

 On our trek to the salt lick, the path was littered with elephant dung…some are still fresh!

 The salt lick.

 On the way down from the trek…guess what Abang Kelvin spotted in this huge tree bark?

 A python! We all took turns for a sneak peek!

 And another snake “Cave Racer” at our trek to the bat cave.

 Girls vs boys. During free time, we arm wrestle!

 While some like to paint…Rachel is so talented in painting and drawing. Keep it up girl!

 Splashers! Favourite activity in the lake every evening.

 Sunset in Belum.

 Disco babes. All having a good time in the Sewang dance, a welcoming dance by the Orang Asli, the Jahai Tribe.

 New kids on the block. We got pretty good at the music accompaniment as well.

 Gift presentation to the Chief of Kampung Chueh, represented by Maddie.

 Soccer with the kids from the village.

 Passing out gifts to the Orang Asli kids.

 Together, we colour!

 

 

 

And we managed to see this too…

 Look! The Rafflesia has bloomed. It was awesome to see the biggest flower in the world.

 I’ll push you over! In the last evening, we had a duel. Balancing on bamboo and getting yourself wet after made it even more fun.

 Even the teachers joined in the fun!

 We never thought it could be so much fun smearing our faces with flour!

 High five! You guys were such fantastic campers! Keep up the good work!
