Sarawak - a place like no others
alright, this is getting too commercialised. haha...
Being a true Sarawakian, and kuchingite, i am very ashamed to admit that, i nvr knew tht there are dolphins in Kuching!!!
Yi Shan, Sui Lin and Kha Hong visited the Cat City last week. So, with the help of Hee Sheong, we've decided to do something different - booked a boat to see dolphin on laut china selatan. The rental of the boat was rm 600, and can accomodate a maximum of 10 pax. the journey strts at 4pm and expected to finish at 8pm.
we reached Kampung Buntal at 430pm and started our journey before 5pm. our first destination is to try spotting wild dolphin on open sea. since it's 'wild dolphin', we were lucky that day to spot quite a few of them. however, none of us manage to capture photos of them...they were too fast...

second destination was to see proboscis monkey. we saw lotsa monkeys...but cant rili c whether they r rili proboscis monkey...haha...too far away...
the package also include looking for 'mata buaya'. well, they mean the real crocodile. the activity was to use a spot light to shine on the eyes of the crocodiles when it gets dark. no luck for us to spot any on tht day....but somehow we were relieved. no ones want to see a wild buaya, really.
as a consolation, we managed to see 'kelip-kelip' (fireflies) on trees that night. looks like a natural christmas tree.
eventhough we din manage to witness the well known proboscis monkey and spotted any 'mata buaya', but we bring back with us the memory of picturesque sunset, the borderless sea, the majestic gunung santubong and the uniqueness of mother nature. We were all particularly impressed by the starry sky tht night, countless and twinkled brightly shining our way back home ....

according to the boardman, they also have this package to go to talang-talang island/sepetang island (cant rmbr which one, haha...) to see sea turtles lay eggs!! but only avaiable in july and aug every year. so....guess this shud be reserved for nx year....
