Alas, the last update. Day 7 and 8. =)
We woke up early(well not so early la) in the morning to prepare to go to this place called the Tip of Borneo. It basically a stretch of land emerging out from one side of the island, hence the name. A beautiful place, I must say. =)
Getting ready for the trip.
As their Honda CRV has a bit of braking problem since the trip to Kinabalu Park yesterday, Crystal's mum borrowed a four-wheel drive(Toyota Hilux if I remembered correctly) from their cousin.
Anyhow, the trip's gonna be a long one. Annabel brought along a DVD of High School Musical 2 to watch in the car, and it kept on repeating and repeating and repeating til Jeev and me go "Aww not again??"
Halfway through, we stopped by a town named Kudat to have our lunch there before continuing on our journey.
Nothing too fancy, but okok la the food.
Greenish evil-looking wheatgrass tea. O_o
After lunch we continued our way there. We left Kudat and followed the signboard into an estate area with a loooooooooooooong stretch of rocky roads that caused the car to shake so heavily and making all of our butts pain. == I suppose it's worth it after all.
We're here!
The wind's strong. REALLY STRONG.
Crystal's uncle bringing us to the other side to have a better view.
I was really afraid Annabel would be carried away by the strong wind. XD
Finally something I can hold on to without getting swept off my feet. ==
Two guys who failed to be 'yeng'.
The wind's so strong this poor swallow cant even fly forward.
AWAS MERBAHAYA - Jangan melintas paras ini. =D
Sands flying through the air stained my glasses. T_T
Time to go home..
The trip back with four person cramping behind the seat under the hot sun was really UNCOMFORTABLE!! But it can't be helped. =)
For supper, we went to Yoyo Cafe again to have some iced goodies and to chat a while..
4-colour special toast!
Went back home, play black jack. Loser calls a random person and say I love you. Those who kena now know why la. XD
Day 8.
It's time to go
Hopefully we didn't mess up Jonathan's room
Went for breakfast, Crystal drove us to the airport, then waved us good-bye as we checked in.
Departing.
Arrived. Waiting to claim our bags.
Btw, a rough idea of what happeend to Vo San and my back.
Vo San's back.
My back.
The whole of my back's skin peeled off during the next few days. >.>
Well, it has been a really intersting trip. a big THANKS to CRYSTAL and her MUM and GRANDMA and UNCLE and JONATHAN and of course, dear ANNABEL. It has been a pleasant trip. Hey lets do this again someday! =D

Sabah trip - Day 6
.
Day 6, destination Kinabalu Park. =D
It took us around 2-and-a-half hours to reach the park, and the ride's quite.. Well, wild. Her mum's driving. =P
Foggy roads. Love 'em or hate 'em, it's still mystifying. =)
The trees love blocking a nice mountain view. ==
We stopped by this small town to look around for stuffs to buy. Nothing much for now, Vo San and Jeev bought tea bags.
F34/2 U5 1337 w00t!!1!11
We continued our journey up.. And here we are.
I like his style of walking. XD
Penguin. =P *all sunburn's fault*
Indoors..
Outdoors..
Ribena plant!..thats what we call it.
Ahh, ini leng chai sikit. XD
=D
Plant with measles. Lol
Ya know, we actually climbed til the top of Mount Kinabalu.. Here's proof.
See? I'm not lying. XD
Cute =D
My brother!
Just before we leave, we replaced some water from the car radiator to avoid it from getting too hot on our way down. Getting water isn't as easy as it looks though.
Poor Vo San.
Feeling hungry, we went inside to eat. We came out quite fast though, food quite expensive.
Then we came to a hotel somewhere here.
No this isn't the hotel.
But it's still nice. =D
Notice the flower on his hair? XD
Some flowers along the way..
Hibiscus! Proud lah a bit, our national flower you know. XD
This isn't actually his pose, but who cares lah? Cool wei. XD
Back to the hotel, waited for dinner..
All hungry..
Bon appetit!
Had some ice cream on our way back *hey why your face always oso got caught in my cam one ah? XD*
To not be so harsh, I shall refer this as sweet-charred-chicken-rear satay. Quite nice lah. =P
I'm sitting alone on the back seat of Crystal's mum's Honda CRV. =DD
From this point on, Jeev's holding my cam. And he took some great pics.
Nice one Jeev. =D
I guess, tomorrow may be my last update bout this trip. Til then. =)
