Boat Pedaling

Last Saturday, ConneXion Semenyih went for their very first (and the only) outing of the semester. This time, we did it at Taman Tasik Perdana which is pretty near to KL Central. It was raining while we were on the way there, but by God's grace the weather turned out to be quite nice (a little too hot).

The garden and playground at Taman Tasik Perdana:

The plan was boat pedaling and some photo shooting at either bird park or flower garden. It's really a big lake, the surrounding is kinda nice too. Quite amazed that there is such a paradise in the middle of the busy city.

Lake garden and boats:

Let's not waste any more time and get started~ As soon as everyone arrived, we started with a prayer, and Sarah lead us in a few songs. There were also sandwiches to feed the hungry souls before they lost too much calories during boat pedaling.

Song lead and refreshment:

The boat pedaling was RM 3 per ticket that allows you to be on the lake for 30 minutes. There are 3 types, the pedaling type with 1 ticket per ride, canoe and cycle type are 2 tickets per ride. By the way, you MUST be in pair to do any of the above.

Put on our life jackets:

For the first round, me and Hannah went for the pedal type boat because she said it has shade and looks stable. Most of the others took the cycling type. The beautiful scenery did caught me in but I'm more impressed on the simple yet brilliant design of the boat, purely mechanical work (oh no... I'm going engineer again X_X).

Cycle type and pedal type:



Unexpectedly, I was soaked wet after the first round. Never thought that it could be so... not really tiring but sweat squeezing. It was fun, and we went for a second round on the cycle type XD Until it's near afternoon, we travel back and had lunch in Leisure Mall.

Lord, hereby I pray for our projects, assignments and reports. Give us strength to carry on and complete our tasks, that we know through You we can do anything. Draw us nearer to You, let us be Your instruments to shine for the world to see. In Jesus I pray, Amen.
