Navy Ship Ride during First Brunei Darussalam Rover Moot 2007

Being a Scout Master has many privilages. One of which is to join in Jamborees and Scout Moots. A Scout Moot is a jamboree for adult scouts or "Rovers". Rovers from many countries join in to do community services, visitss and youth forums. Anyway, this year thanks to the Royal Brunei Navy, we get to hitch a ride in one of their navy ships to go to Temburong. It was a cruise we never forget.
The cruise took 5 hours but it was full of singing all the way.

Wasai Lumapas Excursion - August 2007

Went there with a group of Maktab Duli scouts and other volunteers. The idea is to initialise "outdoorism" to students who never or seldom been in the jungle. At first everyone was reluctant when hearing about jungle heat, leeches, being dirty and improvised shelters and cooking. Not to mention the long hikes. Believe it or not after the actual day..... they want more. Hehehe.

Jalan Dang! Jangan inda jalan!

Cooling off at the natural water pool - not so bad

Refreshing and getting used to outdoor life

Ah yes, as young outdoors-people we learn many things like abseiling ........errr with open minds and open eyes of course.
