It's hard to believe, but we found even more wildlife! We checked out an amazing sanctuary for Borneo's endangered Sun Bears and a refuge for orangutans in need of help before motorbiking our way up to the base of Mount Kinabalu for a stay in a long house on a tea plantation on New Year's Eve. Just writing that sentence out makes it all sound unreal! Enjoy!

We loved watching this "sea of clouds" flow around in the valley.



Not to be outdone by the clouds around Kinabalu, of course.

That's uh...nasty.

A little market on the side of the road. No shortage of things like this in SE. Asia.
