Back from Sarawak
I came back by Air Asia from Kuching 3 days ago and was contemplating of putting up photos here, but I shall keep it personal. No point boasting to the wrong audience or wrong photos to the right audience. Suffice to say that we each saved RM139 by renting a car instead of taking guided tours. We went to Serikin border town market near Indonesia, Gua Angin (Wind Caves) and Semengoh Wildlife Park to see orang utans feeding on the second day. On the first day, we visited cultural village with cultural show included and then headed to Boa for seafood at our own expenses.
On the third day, we rented a motor boat to Bako Wildlife Park, the very place where The Asian Amazing Race was held. The boat trip was enjoyable. Never go in December during the monsoon season because the waves can be as high as 4 metres and over turn the small motor boat. That's why life jackets are a must during the trip. On our fourth day, we went to Chinese Museum and drove around Kuching near the waterfront. We also went to The Springs Mall, the biggest in Kuching and read some books at MPH.
The trip to Kuching was very enjoyable with my 2 younger sisters and perhaps we might have another tour together in 2 years time in Europe.

Going to Kuching tomorrow
I will be flying by Air Asia to Kuching tomorrow afternoon with my two younger sisters for holidays for 5 days 4 nights. We also paid for guided tour for 3 days and the remaining 2 days, we plan to drive around the town and hire a car. I will bring my laptop there to check emails and to keep in touch with my work. I have been to Sarawak in 2006 to the town of Bintulu for business. This time around, it will be pure enjoyment and a good break for holidays. The cost is about RM1,000 per person for this trip. While my two younger sisters will swim in the hotel swimming pool, I will log on to the internet to check emails with my laptop in the hotel room. Pray for my journey mercies for this upcoming trip.
