The first exit

We should already have enough at Wonderland, let's stretch our muscles for the next move.

"1,2,3,4. 2,2,3,4. 3,2,3,4. 4,2,3,4, and a long, deep breath."

It is a warm morning; Rain came, and rain was gone. This is a quiet morning; monkeys and birds seem to be lazy to spy on us, or they are spying on us silently, with their eyes half closed.

This is the place where I had a close encounter with an orange-headed thrush. It is my lifer. I have seen flying critters hopping very close to me for a few times, and these always happened all in a sudden.

They may be waiting just around the corner of your eye. Can you sense them?

We are now at the first exit to the main hiking trail: the tar road. I don’t think we need to make a left turn to this easy and plain track; I have more to share with you in the jungle. Alright?

"Hi friends, why are you peeping at the bench?"

"Okay, I get it. Just go ahead."

  1. The trail looks a bit rougher, or is it too early in the morning for me? Anyway, it should be another wonderful adventure..let's go!

  2. Even though those green vines look like snakes, I still want to see more of the jungle.

  3. That jungle of tangled vines looks so intriguing...I would be scared but would still want to go "discovering" with my camera!

  4. I'm glad we didn't take the easier path, and I don't think I need to rest at the bench. You are a wonderful guide and I'm eager to see more.

  5. Jungle creatures like to make a sudden appearance when you least expect them. Maybe they are testing your reflexes.

  6. Your jungle wonderland has me wanting to go explore more and more everyday. Even though it would be easy to get lost in there, I would love the chance to try :)

    The journey will be rougher and steeper, I'll always give you my hands.

    Those green vines really look like snakes, once I get used to them, that's no problem.

    There are many more interesting discoveries, let's go together.

    It looks tough, it is not so after some practices.

    And you have made the right choice to follow me all the way.

    I would rather say they are testing our consensus.
