The call of Raja Brooke's Birdwing, White Dragontail and Rafflesia flower was just irresistible....so decided to drag wife , daughter and Ellen along for a sneak attack on Chee Meng's home town.

Thanks to Federick, Young San , LC and Kurt's inputs and tips , the trip from 21-24th was executed flawlessly . We hit Kuala Woh within 6 hours of leaving Singapore , and the following days visited Ulu Gerok, Gua Tempurung, Lata Kinjang and Kuala Woh again on the way back.

By the fourth day Ellen was suffering from butt fatigue when I was shooting this on the opposite bank, she was sentimentally floating away her pair of faithful boots and taking her HP for a swim....... the handphone survived, while the boots must be somewhere out in Malacca straits!
