https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01820_thumb.jpg
Tues. 16th April 2013 Pulau Tiga Resort is a great relaxing island and I could have spent the morning chilling out on the hammocks being lulled by the sound of the sea, but that was not the plan. Close by …
Day 245: Survivors
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/WP_20130415_002_thumb.jpg
Mon. 15th April 2013 We’re off today to Pulau Tiga – better known as Survivor Island after the first series of the reality TV show was shot there. Having never seen any of the programmes I didn’t know anything about …
Day 244: Messing About On The River
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01692_thumb.jpg
Sun. 14th April 2013 Where did the last week go? [Ed. Where did the last eight months go?] It is Sunday again and there is a group trip going to the Sunday Market. After lasting about thirty seconds there last …
Day 243: Something Fishy
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01577_thumb.jpg
Sat. 13th April 2013 The pace is distinctly (and thankfully) less frantic now we have completed our climb of Mount Kinabalu. We are now into the rearranged part of the Sabah trip. Originally, the itinerary took us east to Sandakan …
Day 242: Local Life
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01520_thumb.jpg
Fri. 12th April 2013 It is time to say goodbye to the Eco Lodge and as we look at the site plan in reception, we see we could have done many more activities. We had seen (and heard) the locals …
Day 241: Hot Tub Time Machine
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01396_thumb.jpg
Thur. 11th April 2013 Breakfast was a bit of a challenge this morning. First off, our legs seem to have stopped working after all their exertions over the past few days, so even getting from our room to the restaurant …
Day 240: Tough And Scary
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01336_thumb.jpg
Wed. 10th April 2013 Our roommates start moving around at 1:15am to get to the bathroom before the rush they say and start waving torchlights around, so we soon give up pretending to sleep and get up too. This was …
Day 239: Dorm Life
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01152_thumb.jpg
Tue. 9th April 2013 Its fair to say that it wasn’t the greatest night’s sleep that we’ve ever had in our lives. The accommodation here is not up with that in Mulu National Park, which still rates as one of …
Day 238: It’s Rubbery
https://www.thehornseys.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DSC01097_thumb.jpg
Mon. 8th April 2013 Mount Kinabalu is the first thing we see this morning when we come out of our rooms. The cloud from yesterday has all gone and it can be seen in all its glory and makes us …
