Rafflesia - The World Biggest Flower

Kea village/Plantation,pictures taken from Equatorial Hotel at Brinchang
My first experience in a 4X4 trail...
Our Orang Asli guide ;Temiang tribe Forgot to ask his name.He is friendly.
Mud trail...
slippery bamboo crossing
An Orang Asli's leaf scurf
A few fresh foot print of a wild beast-probably a "tiger"!!
A wild orchid
Rafflesia growing in between the tree base
Can find them growing on the tree trunk too!
Even growing on the ground...
Found a dead plant along the way
this was huge!
this is the one we were lead to see...
Feel like rubble texture...
wild flower
tiring journey for some...As for me ,i just came back from Mount Kinabalu...so i'm still fit!!
going uphill...
crossing a fallen tree...tough for a little girl.The Orang Asli asked for an ANG PAU to buy cigarettes...i told him to take care of my girls.At the end of the trip. i gave him RM 20.00
...result of a mud...trail....which one is NIKE and which one is BATA??
...after i promised to give him an Ang Pau;he leads me to another flower while the rest were resting beside the waterfall! Money Power!
Looks like cabbage
He was choping bamboo which contains water inside; the water was fresh and taste like mineral water...kind of ...
This Indian guide was sitting behing the jeep!
This small tree trunk was used as a walking stick; this is the cut section of the trunk. The jeep,notice the bull's horn on top of the bonnet
