Day 230 (Thu 22 Feb) - Kota Kinabalu (Sabah, Borneo)

Up at 8am to finalise with Alex our onward itinerary.

After brekky decided to catch up on the blog. Waste of time as the machines were virus ridden and annoyingly you had to get time on a machine by depositing coins in a nearby slot. Soon gave up and decided to go shopping as we needed some more gear.

Went to several small shopping malls looking for trousers for Sarb and some black tops for Jo. No luck though.

Felt hungry about 1ish so stopped off at a McD's. For some reason we are both craving junk food!

Went for an unsuccessful shop and then headed to the waterfront to see the sunset ( [1], [2] ). Had a few drinks overlooking the harbour and the neighbouring small islands ( [1], [2] ).

On the way back from the waterfront we stopped off at a large supermarket where we stocked up some provisions including small bottles of brandy and gin. We were meant to meet Alex this evening so that we could pay him for our excursions but he wasn't to be found. Waited in a bar nearby and finally at about 10.30pm he pitched up.

Paid up and went off to bed to pack our gear as we had to leave early for Kinabatangan the next morning.
