A stroll in the woods

Being a holiday, we decided to bring the jeep to Johore for a spin. It was meant to be an easy survey since dad was tagging along, but we got stuck in a muddy, swampy leach heaven with heavy raindrops pouring on us. Dad got bitten for the first time, I was the only one amongst the gang of four which escaped this fate - thanks to my trusty water-proof 3M spray - my socks were soaked with these, hehe.
Here, we were on out way out, going pass a clump of Hanguana malayana (left) - a palm-like plant.
