Activity 2

During the last holiday, my friends and I went to Bekok Resort Waterfall.
Bekok Resort Waterfall is a famous tourist spot in Johor. It was my first trip with
my friends.
That morning, Ali, Lim and Ravi were at the bus station before me.
We brought some food and drinks from home. We arrived there at about ten
o’clock in the morning. The place had a beautiful scenery. There were many
hills and forests around the waterfall. The sound of the water made me feel
happy.
We did many activities there. We hiked up the hills and swam at the
waterfall. The girls collected pebbles and we had an enjoyable picnic. Suddenly
it started to rain. We ran to find a safe shelter. Some of my friends tried to save
the food and their clothes.
After a few minutes, the rain stopped. We had a small barbecue near the
waterfalls. We rested for a while after eating. Before we went home, we hiked
up the hills. We found some unique flora such as the wild orchids. We picked
the flora for our Science garden in school. We went home in the evening. We
felt sad leaving the Bekok Resort Waterfall. While in the bus, my friends and I
planned to have another trip to the resort. Although it was tiring, it was a
memorable and fun trip.
