I'm back from SABAH (for 4 days already)
Monday, December 14, 2009


YEAH. I'm BACK!!
the best parts of the trip was the day at Mt. Kinabalu. The air was fresh and nicely cold, like natural air-con... And there was this botanic garden there with loads of cool vegetation and features, like natural mini-rapids thingies(ER) and beautiful plants. Not to forget lucious light green foliage with DEW on top of them! I felt like I had stepped into some botanic documentary. :)

And the next best were the trips to the two sister islands. We stepped into the first island and spotted loads of FISH in the blue-green water, which the bottom could be seen SO clearly!!! My aunt, cousins, bro, dad and I paid lots of cash to play this 'underwater dive' trip under the crystal clear sea. It was that we sit in this 'motorbike' looking machine but does not have an engine, with a glass-helmet like thingy that covers your head so that you don't get wet(due to pressure). Then 'personal' divers will assist you by 'dragging' your 'motorbike' to the deep areas where there would be fish. And then we fed the fish with bread and they keep coming. It was a wonderful experience. We even got burnt CDs of the dive. But the bad part was that I was bitten by a parrot fish and I bled. :(
And when I attempted snorkelling(which was free) I kicked some coral by accident and got some abrasions on my 2 toes. :(
I had 3 plasters :(((
The next island, Sapi. We had buffet lunch there then I finally tried snorkelling again. This time I made sure not to kick any more coral. Lol. Dad bought some bottle-fish-food and we started feeding the fish. The fish were of a spontaneous variety and they kept coming!!The most were some black striped fish. I spotted some parrot fishes too and decided to avoid them!! And the best part was that I spotted a clownfish(nemo!!) and a butterfly fish!!!!

The best HOTEL was the nexus karumbunai one. 5 stars. It's got a giant plasma tv and a super spacious room with serene lighting and all. And it's got a beach linked to it!!!! Everyone went to play at the beach and waves. And we spotted tiny crabs too!!! When we walked at night, we actually spotted a big one size of your four fingers excluding thumb(LOL). AND the beach is full of moving sea-snail like creatures and when you dig up the sand at the end of a small trail in it, you would find one moving slowly!!! COOL.

YEPP. There are some other stuff but I don't want to write more luhh.

Going to Sabah is a good choice people!
