Borneo - Kota Kinabalu

We arrived at the Pacific Sutera Hotel mid-afternoon after a short flight across Sabah. Our rooms weren't ready, so thanks to Claire's honed negotiation skills we were all upgraded to suites. Woo! (What was I saying about giving up 4* holidays!? It was just for one night though.) :)



As we were staying on the doorstep of the harbour, our mission while we
were here was to find some decent sea food, and find it we did! Fresh as it comes!










We ordered chili crab, grouper, prawns and lobster. Messy but yummy!







We stopped in a couple of sea front bars on the way back and ended up, as we always do, in an Irish pub. Like alcoholic missionaries, the Irish have managed to set up shop, in just about every corner of the Earth. Even here in Borneo!! Ha!

Ok, so if you're squeamish, look away now....

When we got back to the hotel, Ant asked me take a look at his sunburn from Turtle Island......and OMG, it was bad. What had been very red and sore skin the day before, had erupted into thousands of angry little blisters.....



Second degree burns according to the t'internet! You see, this is what happens when gingers sunbathe! I did warn him... ;)

I put him to bed with a cold, wet towel and then drifted off to dream of our next adventure...Singapura. Yesssss! Xx
