Trip
December 3, 2005 – 12:00 pmIt’s been two days since returning home, but I haven’t posted anything for two reasons : 1. I forgot. 2. internet connection went down at the most inconvenient time.
Anyways, I really had a great time in Miri, especially visiting the Mulu Caves, which are supposed to be the ninth wonder of the world. Mostly about the cave with the longest cave passage in the world, supposedly able to hold 5 St Paul’s Cathedral (or whatever). This cave, Deer Cave, isn’t the biggest cave in the world like many think. That title belongs to the Sarawak Chamber, open only to nutty adventurers who will put their lives on the line.
We did watch the famous Bat Exodus, where the bats came out in spiraling snake-like formations. And saw a captivating view - almost like heaven-on-earth.
I know pictures are almost compulsory, but the camera still sucks, and the other people who went with us who took the pictures haven’t come up with them yet. I can’t do anything about it. And I’m starting to think we really need a new camera.
