GREAT holiday!!!

Yeah... after a 'forceful' persuasion, I was convinced to join 2 of my friends for White Water Rafting at Padas River near Beaufort, a town about 1 1/2 hours drives from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. We started the journey at 6am on Saturday morning and reached Beaufort at 7:30am. We went for breakfast before we head to our friend's place. Upon entering the house of my friend, we discovered that my friend's mother in law's were beaten by Scorpion. I saw the Scorpion laid on the floor. It is about 8cm to 10 cm long. It is in black colour. According to my friend's mother in law, the moment when she was beaten, her lips numbed and she almost fainted. But she cried out the name of Jesus and that's how she survived.

Thereafter, we went to get things done before we headed to the Train Station to the Start Point of Padas River.

We were waiting at the Train Station for about 20 minutes before we took a train to the start point of Padas River. We took not the ordinary train, but we took the train with the air-con. It's a 1 1/2 hours' train journey to the start point of the Water Rafting. This water rafting consists of 6 rapids as shown below: -


Honestly, it is a very nice and wonderful trip as everyone of us together with 3 others who were from Kuala Lumpur pedal the boat trying to conqueror all the rapids. It's fun as we were asked to jump into the river and learned body rafting and so on as well.

We really had a great time. After the water rafting, we also had the opportunity to visit some other places including Lawas, Sarawak and Sipitang, and so on. It's so wonderful!!!

On our way back to Sipitang to Beaufort, we bought some Crabs with only RM8 and upon reaching my place in Kota Kinabalu, a friend and I cooked the crabs. It's delicious ....

I truely enjoy the whole weekend.
