9.00am - As soon as we were flagged off at Cyberjaya, we scrambled to open our first clue - match 13 pictures of F1 driver to their names and get the name of our next destination. I admit I am clueless on F1 and unfortunately so were most of my team members...but we managed to get to the next destination - Sepang Circuit - with some luck and smart guesses. There, we had to pose for our creative photo challenge with umbrellas and a flag.
Our next destination - Seremban R & R and the challenge is to pump RM 6.88 worth of Shell petrol. We managed to get RM 6.89...This is where we got our tulips and made our way to a eatery in Seremban.
Here, we took up another challenge aptly named - the F1 Squirt...Using empty bottles for chilli sauce (you know, those green and red ones found at restaurants), we have to squirt air and push a ping pong ball through a track. We had lunch here and got our next destination clue - by deciphering codes using 'dictionary' on our hands aka our handphones...
After some u-turns and wrong ways (due to technical error in the tulips), we managed to get back on track to Eagle Ranch near to Port Dickson. The go-karting challenge is easy but what came after that, I would never be able to forget.
It reminds me of Trailblazer sans the mud and jungle. 3 out of 4 team members have to work together to climb through some logs. After much huff and puff, pull and push, we managed to go climb through (sorry CK for leaving you behind), then to the swinging planks...and through a tyre and at one point we have to eat cili padi and wasabi and the last challenge is to dress up one team member in boots, gloves, helmets and jackets and feed him/her water without him/her doing anything and then finally help him/ her over a high wall. Not easy at all but it was fun!!! Laughed our ass off at some points. After completing these, it's time to make our way to Melaka with the tulips and the hunt questions.
4.00pm - We finally arrived at Jonker's street. The final challenge is to dip our hands in a tank of eels to collect pebbles to spell a word. I volunteered to do it. I didn't know why at that point I didn't feel nervous. They are slippery and slimy...That's all. If it's a tank full of insects, I will be screaming my lungs out. The final part of the hunt is a walk hunt along Jonkers. Lacking in time, we just collect whatever answers we can get. And at 4.49pm, we submitted our treasures and questions to the marshalls and headed towards Everly Resort.
Tiring 8-hours of journey followed by a dinner. It's amazing we still can find the energy to play some card games and have a little drinking session. And I didn't get drunk this time round...:P

Some IMPORTANT tips on being a navigator:
1) Read the tulips and instruct the driver which way to go (RIGHT or WRONG way, it doesn't matter, refer to 3)
2) Ensure driver is ALERT and AWAKE (you MUST do anything to keep him awake-including slapping him)
3) Be VERY confident on your direction (even if you are on the wrong track, APPEAR confident)
4) Ensure all your car members are ALERT and AWAKE (very DIFFICULT to achieve!!)
5) And last but not least - make sure yourself is fully ALERT and AWAKE (failed!!)
