OBML

11-17 January 2011
A week full of challenges and made my life changed
Changed the way i think..
Push beyond your limit
I was selected to OBML
Outward Bound Malaysia Lumut
Go through a water-based activities camp involve kayak and whaler

We reached OBS, Outward Bound School on 11th January 2011

OBS Gym hall

First time wallet and handphone being taken away from me for a 7 days camp
No entertainment are allowed here
Even IC also being taken away too

The place where we stayed..
The first day is basically just Ice breaking and group formation
I was being selected into Bintang Watch.

The next day we started our training and introduction to kayak
How to save ourselves if the kayak capsized and so on
Learn a lot here with my real experience of capsizing in the middle of the sea
and get back to my own kayak with the help from my friends.

Me with the pedals and kayak
The kayak is very heavy..=.=

We started the 1st expedition in the afternoon around 3pm

Getting ready to kayak..!!!

We just kayak for about 1 and half hour and reached our campsite called Teluk Sekadih

Our camp site at Teluk Sekadih

The meal is not nice though..
Nasi tak masak..=.=
But we got to eat that..
or else will pengsan...=.=

We again kayak for the next day around the Pangkor Island
It really push beyond my limit..
Because we kayak for 7 hours..
But I am very happy for being able to reach till the end..!!!

The 2nd expedition was whaling
We had hard time to whale as 8 person will like kayak together and need to synchronize
We even had our lunch in the middle of the sea
haha..XD
Nice experience though

This is basically the Whaler

Trying hard to keep the fire and to make sure the rice being cooked well

So many flies there..

We reached around 9am at OBS and had some rest
