Misconception. Always thought that Marchchite Reservior is not that big and it only had the path that i ran during my cross country period. But i am wrong, big mistake ah. Actualli marchchite is huge, i and terence walk and walk and walk, there is like no ending to the road of forest. What more interesting is that, it is even connected to Bukit Timah Hill. Wa, unbelieveable rite, it is like another side of the singapore. how cum they are connected. Very connected. And somemore, we din finish walking the whole trail. Guess we walk for abt 10km. But i seem like 100km coz towards the end, there is a huge downpour. Heavy rain cam pouring down, so heavy that it seep through all those dense canopies above us and came pelting down at us. We were drenched, from head to toe, but no choice, as there is no shelter around. we cant hide, we cant turn back (coz the back path is even longer) so we have to brave the rain and move forwards. I know that i am walking slower and slower coz i am tired and with the added weight from the rain. i practically is dragging myself. Another surprise that i have todae is that there is something call the Tree top View inside Marchchite and though we did manage to go up there ( coz we walk in the wrong direction) and luckily we din go up there coz we will be even more stuck inside Marhchite when rain come, but i am curious to know what is the reservior look like from the tree top . So i might go back there again, but next time with an umbrella or mabbe two. Coz i think one not enuff for heavy rain like today. Third surprise is that Marhchite actually is quite poplular among the foreigners coz i saw lots of them either taking family for the walk or for a run, and i am impressed by those who went for the run, coz some slopes are real steep and the rough is super uneven.
