It was Saturday’s morning,the sun shines dimly and the cold breeze sweeped around the momentary silent campus. Despite the unsetting atmosphere that was slowly starting to grow,a group of students were already gathered around waiting for the bus to their one day trip destination.
The journey took around few hours before they arrived at National park’s jetty. The jetty was crowded with both foreigners and local despite the fact it was finally their turn. Few minutes later,the appointed leader for the group paid for the entrance fees. It seemed like the lady of luck stroke them since they were the first group to boarded the boat,feeling slightly excited as well nervous.
Six girls seemed to enjoy themselves as the waves made a harsh contact on the surface of the boat, resulting in a bulky kind of way ride but it was exciting.
The beautiful sounds of nature settled around and it gave off a calming vibes. Upon arriving,they arrived safely at the National park,they were greeted by a wild boar. Some of the girls were shocked at the sudden appearance since it was probably their first time seeing one in the real lives. While the rest ,it seems pretty natural and just shrugged the thought.

The wild boar was like the guardian of the place since it the eldest among the creatures. The grey hair that were growing everywhere on his body and face were more than enough to prove that he was there since the beginning.
They continued their journey passing by wild animals and reptiles that were lurking around since it was in the wild life rehabilitation site. Wooden based cabin came into view ,giving sign they have reached the centre of the national park
.
.
Stomach were grumbling eyes were sticking out from the lack of sleeping and it was more than enough for them to decide it was finally time to take a break.
After a short lunch of sandwiches and plain water,they met up with the tour guide. After a brief introduction on the “hows’ and ‘dont’s” upon entering the forest by the tour guide,they walked on the ground that was slightly wet from the previous rainy season.
Tropical greens and 100 years old worthed of trees were standing tall,proud of being there. They heard sounds of the wildlife animals and insects welcoming us. Their intention was to see the Big Rock but they have to go through the hurdle of courses before reaching the said place.
The paths in the forest were slippery and stacks of pebbles rocks and broken laid-down blocking the clear path. Even so,they still can continue their journey. On their way,they found animals like scorpions,snakes,monkeys and others.
Since time envied us,they can only use a shortcut to go to the beach despite the exciting things awaited for them if they go to a longer path.
Finally they reached the beach. It was beautifully decorated with white sands with a lot of shells. Mangrove trees were naturally grown on the land and what seems to be a monkey was enjoying his lunch on the beach.
After what seems that forever they finally reach the vast land connecting to the Big Rock . They can finally use the boat to go to the Big Rock.
