my annual vacation - 2005

hmm... looks like the month of September is generally when i take my annual leave... In 2004, went to NZ. This year, went to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, East Malaysia.

What did i do there? Generally some outdoor activities.... hmm... didn't go to the beach this time... not in the mood since i went to Perhentian Island last month with my baby.

Just did some white water rafting (in Malaysia, the term white water doesn't necessary means the water is clear.... still the same old brownish/ muddish colour) at Padas River... it's somewhere between KK and Brunei. Other than that, climbed up Mt Kinabalu. Lovely view.

The cost of the trip? A whopping RM2200 for 2 of us for 6 days/ 5 nights. Trip could cost us less if we didn't hire a whole cab, carry too much stuff with us up the mountain and didn't try calling for our rafting trip on a sunday when they are closed.

But nevertheless, the trip is good... it's nice to be doing things outdoors. Sometimes you wonder why i didn't chose a profession that involves more outdoors. hmmm... that could be a topic for another day.
