This past week the kids were out for spring break and we had not planned a trip. I decided we would do a few things around KL that we had not experienced. On the top of the list was the Canopy Walk through the Malaysian Rainforest. The Rainforest is part of the FRIM ( Forest Research Institute Malaysia). We decided to get a guide once we arrived and it was worth it.He quickly informed us he was not a scientist or botanist but would give us some history of the forest along the way. I was more interested in finding my way out of the forest as my family seemed to bravely enter with no worry. For those of you that know me I am not a outdoors kind of girl nor do I like to rough it in the wilderness.
Our walk began ..........
This was Bamboo Below
The roots of a tree below looked like a Elephant, Can you see it?
The view behind us was published in a National Geographic Magazine
This is a view looking up, the tops of the trees make a maze, looks pretty neat!

Okay this is the Canopy Walk, A series of different bridges suspended 30 meters in the air. ( basically ropes, ladders, and boards is how these are held together)
Yes if I could have I would have turned back but I couldn't , The look on my face explains how I felt.
After about 3 hours of Trekking we arrived at a waterfall, it was nice and refreshing!
We had a fun day and made lots of memories I'm sure we will talk about for years to come.
