... as we waited for a guide along with the Finnish couple we had befriended. Around 8.30 a man popped up announcing himself as Nickles (nick-less) or Nicholas as we called him anyway. Nickles had the joy of being our guide for 2 days. He was only in his mid 20s and a local, so as usual rather short but seemed nice with his limited English. A short bus journey to the starting check point and off we set. The rough guide for this climb is 4-6hours to the Laban Rata lodge which you ...

... We doen eens gek en bestellen een seafood platter met alles er op en er aan. Ja hier kunnen we wel aan wennen, vers zeekraal, krab, red snapper, allerlei schelpen, en garnalen.

Getoppt wurde das nur ...

A travel blog entry by worldcitizen83

... row behind me was completely empty. After the headcount was taken and the seat belt sign was off, I took the empty row and once again "lucked out."

When I arrived in Kota Kinabalu, I was exhausted. However, for the third time of the day, I lucked out once again. My bag was the very first one out in baggage claim. That had never happened before and might probably never happen again. I was soon out of ...

... jungle trekkere”:-)!! Men afsted det gik. De kære guider fik os ført op og ned ad diverse skrænter og gennem forskellige floder – svært, hårdt (åh – især for benene), men ikke mindst utrolig smukt! De to guider lavede bestik og glas af bambustræ, og de fandt vand til os fra bambustræerne – dejligt tropisk og eksotisk.
