After a late night I managed for the first time in weeks to sleep till 10 AM :) I guess this is a sign of relaxation and exactly what I needed. Well,that also means I almost missed the great breakfast but could manage to enjoy some local Malay one, Chicken Curry and Roti :) Good that I do not like to eat sweet in the mornings...

As this is the only free day for the next week, I decided to spend it entirely at the pool, booked myself a massage as well as some "ear candling" - strange experience and I will not need it again...

Dinner at the Fillipino Market, some fresh grilled squid as well as shrimp- yummmmieee! I was, again, the only Western person there, squeezed in between all the locals who watched me mixing my first sauce out of some kind of chilli sauce, fresh lime, salt and small chillies...Photos of that experience will follow as the connection is too slow.

For dessert I had some banana fritters and noticed a rat in the size of a European housecat on the way out of the nightmarket! So, make sure you check what you eat!

Now having an early night, need to do some packing as my flight to Miri departs at 6.40 AM, then a stop over of god knows how many hours and I will hopefully arrive in Mulu in the afternoon for some jungle, caves and wrafting.

Speak tomorrow!
