Today was nice. A total sightseeing place! Sabah is nice to sightsee and to go for a holiday and vacation!

Today was a full day trip up to National Park--Mount Kinabula there. Drove up winding roads and went to Fish Spa, Poring Hot Springs and finally to the park itself where people start their trekking up the mountain. And that is my aim!

My driver Kevin. We were trying to use the rear view mirror to take a photo. Haha. That's why he didn't smile:

The cousins in the car:

It was good trip. Just a pity that I didn't have a proper lunch. Took lots of photos with my cousins and relatives :) Nice!

We also stopped by a restaurant place there and take some photos. Be amazed at the scenery:

This is my other cousin, Yun Tong, and I:

My cousin Christian and Yun Tong and I:

Well, fish spa was quite scary. It's a new tourist attraction and we were given fish food. We claspsed the fish food in our hands, put it in the water and then the fish will start to come to our clenched fist. They make such loud sounds that it sounds like the fishes are kissing you!

I was so scared at first! :S Very afraid actually but mum was very adventurous! She was the first to enter and submerged her legs into it and let the fishes move and glide around her. Then she was the last to leave too! Haha. So different when she's with my family. I was the very scared one! Took so long to enter the water and when I did, I still didn't like it with the fishes swimming around my legs. Very tickish!! Haha.

After that, we headed to Poring Hot Springs. And quite sad that it rained. Still, the pools are sheltered so it's not that bad! And my cousin Christian can slp in the pool while waiting for it to fill up! Amazing! I shared one pool with my other cousin, Yun Tong. It was nice cos we were forced to chat and talk to each other. Which I did! And managed to talk about some things and catch up =) Thanks girl!

Wanted to walk the canopy but cos of the rain, we can't. Sad. After that, we headed to see some hotels and resorts, took some photos there where the rain had stopped. The mist cleared and the peak of Mt K. is clear and beautiful. It's very high up and tall! Amazing! And I wonder whether I can scale it!

After that, we went to the Kinabula Park where the people start climbing the mountain. There are resorts there and they allow ppl to take photos there. And another beautiful thing is that it's so cold that there's mist coming out of our mouth! Lol. We were so fascinated by it that we kept blowing our breath out. Lol.

My cousins, Kevin & Christian:

My aunty who is my uncle's wife, my mum's sister-in-law:

So we took a few photos there again, with the Mt K being very visible and beautiful. Nxt year, if time permits and God allows, I'll scale the mountain! Maybe together with Kevin and his frens. Or maybe on my own or with my own frens. I'm toying with the idea of celebrating my 21st bday up on the peak. Arriving up there at the peak on 1st May. Wouldn't that be quite a something? But, I would miss the company of my frens and having dinners with them and celebrating with them...Hmm..Friends vs an experience on the peak. Which shall I choose??

Anyway, here's the map of trail up to the summit:

Anyway, after that, we headed down. It was pretty late already but because it's that late, we get to see the sunset on the way down. Took a few beautiful and nice sunset photos! =)

The mountain in the background:

And thank God for keeping us safe throughout. I mean, this journey sure isn't easy. It's winding and alot of turns. Plus, it rained and we met several trucks carrying logs and gases. It sure is dangerous too. And on the way down, the windscreen was misty too. Scary. Thank God for giving Kevin strength too! =) Thanks Kevin!
