Sabah Trip 2009

On 2-7/7/09, 14 of us went to Sabah , initially our plan is to conquer Mt Kinabalu but were unable to make it due to booking problem. So, we change our itinerary to Semporna instead where infamous Sipadan Island is located. We only hv one full day in Kota Kinabalu which we went for Water Rafting at Padas River, Ranau. Let's the photos do the talking..

Day 1 - Kota Kinabalu town
+Borneo Backpacker Hostel where we stay, good choice for backpackers.
