Semporna, Mabul, and diving at Si Amil Island

Hi,

- Night bus to Semporna and slept on a chair outside a hostel

- Found an hotel for the next night, the Sipadan Inn Hotel

- Went to Mabul Island and stayed at the Summer Friends homestay

- After two days at Mabul we went back to Semporna to relaxed before we went on 3 boat dives at Si Amil Island close to Mabul.

Our flight to KL departed on 1st of August from Tawau, a rund down town close to the Indonesian border.

Our arrival at The Pacific Regency was in the evening, and we really liked our room...

Kinabalu Park and going east

Hi,

Now we've been in Kota Kinabalu for 2 days and tomorrow we'll do a day trip to the Tunku Abdul Rahman Park for a day at the beach. Later tomorrow we will take a bus to Kundasang which is at the foot of Mt. Kinabalu, the plan is to climb Mt. Kinabalu July 21 st, we decided to arrange the trip by ourselves instead of booking some shit charter tour. We also found out that there are 2 different trails going up the mountain, so we'll take the more interesting one...

After climbing Mt. Kinabalu we'll continue direction east and end up in Semporna where there is diving paradise. On our way there we'll maybe take a trip to the jungle as well. We'll try to post some pictures soon :)
