Hello Hivers, how was your weekend?
Finally, after a long week of intense work, it's time to take a week off. Re-energize the body at the same time before starting a new career. Last weekend, I went on a trip to Son Tra Peninsula with one of my colleagues; when it comes to Danang, we cannot overlook Son Tra Peninsula, which is about 10 kilometers from the city center.
There is a new regulation that only motorbikes may be taken to the top of Son Tra's mountain, so that the points around it can be avoided. The road to Son Tra has been reopened to the public again. It is a requirement to declare health before riding the scooter, and when going up the mountain, people must have been vaccinated once.
We intended to go hiking in the forest few hours and will return to the city later, but the trails were unexpectedly longer than we thought so we couldn't distinguish the way back to the city. October is here or there is rain in the forest, it is getting darker quickly, the road is slippery and steep, I am so scared right now that the rain will soak into me.
Because it was quite dark, we decided to stay in the forest for one night. Our food was enough to last until morning, and since I wasn't at home, I slept in a hammock and built a reinforced sheet to protect me from the rain. . It was the first time I got lost and slept in the forest, but when the night fell, we attracted a small fire to redefine the clothes, so that the wild animals would not approach us. At night, the forest is quiet as mist descends from the mountain, creating a mysterious frame in the darkness. Due to the wet rains, it was quite cold in the forest at night, but thanks to the fire we were warm.
When dawn appears, the sound of wild chickens in the mountains sounds, signaling the beginning of a new day. I am enjoying this perfect moment in the forest, the sound of streams flowing, the singing of birds, and spotting a family of langurs. I attempted to take a picture with my camera, but they bailed. Langur, also known as the primate queen, is a symbol of Son Tra peninsula and seen as a beauty of Danang city when tourists visit Son Tra island. We played in the jungle all day and left for the screening at that time, a weekend outing that was hard, yet in the end more memorable and experiential.
Thank you for reading and viewing my post, wish you a productive and happy new week. This is also my entry for the Amazing Nature Contest - October 2021 - #02.
