This is not the first time we come to KL Bird Park, but it is the first time we came together after both Alvin and I were separated. It is odd but I try to be myself and do not want to think too much.
The children were enjoying their day out. What is the most happiest moment when both of your mother and father are together with you enjoying the fun? This is our family photo together.

Mount Singai, situated between Bau & Batu Kawa, about 550m high, is located about 40 minutes drive from Kuching. This is where the Catholic Memorial & Pilgrimage Centre to be found.
We reached at the foot of the Mount. Singai and it is located in the village, there is a small stall selling coconut drinks and other soft drinks.
With Daddy and I were taking care so many children with us, as Brother Andrew and Minah did not follow us due to his health, both of them waited us at the stall at the foot of the mountain. We often stopped to catch a breath and take photos along our way up to the mount.
Plank-walks and staircase were built at some of the steep places thus provide convenient to elderly visitors. Halfway up to the Centre is a clearing providing a good view of the Kampung below and also Batu Kawa township in the distance. There are altogether fourteen station of the cross along the track.
The area surrounding the Catholic Memorial Pilgrimage Centre is also a good site for Jungle trekking and also wildlife sighting.
There are abundance of fruit trees, palm ferns, wild flowers along the path and also wildlife. A jungle path leading to the top of Mount Singai located just beside the Longhouse.
A brief history of Catholic Memorial Pilgrimage Centre. Over a hundred years ago, a small Catholic Chapel was built among the Bidayuh on the slope of Mt. Singai, Bau, Sarawak in 1885.
The site of the first chapel at Mt. Singai however has been turned into a Memorial and Pilgrimage Centre with the building, completion and blessing of the Centre in November 1999.
The Centre has attracted a lot of Catholics and other Christian Pilgrims and has become very popular with the local Catholics and other Christian denominations and those from other places, so much so that the existing living quarters, especially the washrooms and toilet facilities could no longer cope with the increase in the number of visitors there.
The centre now has new Church which a 300 maximum seating which in the form of the Bidayuh Ceremonial House, Baruk. Below it is an open air prayer space with wooden seats.
Other facilities including dinning cum community hall, hostels, chalets, public toilets, washrooms, caretaker house and ten doors longhouse. We took some time visited the areas and took some photographs. It was really amazing that I can’t imagine there is a holy place like this at this height of the mountain, and it is really took great faith to build it.
On the way down hill, we have more time and energy to see the surroundings of the hills, the jungle was so virgin as untouched. We were almost exhausted when we were at the foot of the mountain again.
Overall, it was a great experience to us!
