Gua Tempurung

My Visit to Gua Tempurung: Located in Gopeng Perak Malaysia and can be reached via North-South Highway.

It was just like going through hell especially during the initial stage of learning how to hit the golf balls...it was not as easy as I have thought. To cut the story short, after several weeks of practicing, a good friend of mine invited me to play a round of golf with him and at the end of the game, he told me that I was not playing golf but instead playing a hockey game. Who cares, I enjoyed it very much anyway. Well thank God those hard times were long been forgotten and now I am very happy to be able to play the game with a valid h
