This innocent looking wormy tiny creature is a leech.  While hiking at Ulu Geroh last year, I was bitten, or was it sucked, a couple of times.

Well … this is the result.  Suddenly I saw blood.  The leech must have fed itself well and fell off 😀  It took a few days for the bite to stop bleeding.  And it was until about a week that I still felt itchy at the spot where I was “sucked”.

Well, the view and the trip was fun enough.  So, we sure hoped that we lost some weight that day … walk, leech and all.
