Practice for Mt Kinabalu

To start our morning we got up early and packed up ready for our hike. We drove to the bakery in Tiki and I had a steaming hot vegetable roti which was delicious! Roti is my favourite food in Sri Lanka. A quick drive up the hill to the carpark of Little Adam's Peak and we started our ascent to the peak. I made it to the tallest point. When we got to the top there were clouds everywhere and most of the time we were inside of them. Every now and then it would clear up we could see that we were standing 1141metre above sea level. The walk up was fantastic practice for me and dad's big climb. Walking down was a breeze- literally! The wind was trying to push us off.
Me and Fern somehow convinced Mum and dad to let us do one of the activities which was rock climbing. Obviously I beat Fern on both climbs. The rock climbing was fun but it was a lot higher than it looked when you got to the top and looked down!
I really liked the hike, it was fun for the whole family.
We had another lucky day with the weather. When we were pretty much at the hotel it rained. It rained for the rest of the afternoon- all the way till midnight.
After dinner me and dad went to the pool hall for a couple of games and a game of snooker. I flogged Dad at snooker.Read more
