Sabah keeps amazing me, the nature is so overwhelming beautiful with jungle tracks everywhere and wild nature just around the corner. KK is a town just a few hundred meters wide, between jungle and ocean. So just turn the corner and you are in either a jungle to explore (many trails just starting here) or walk to the oceanside to enjoy the sunset, markets, shops and restaurants.
Yesterday, tuesday I woalked all the way to the other side of town to visit the Muzium Sabah, Museum of Sabah that is. There is natural history, ceramics, archeology, traditional costumes, birds and butterflies and a lot more cultural stuff. Also an exhibition on the Japanese deathcamps that were here in Northern Borneo in WWII. Next to the museum is a Heritage Village where several traditional houses are built to explore. A garden with commercial, midicinal and ornamental plants and trees. Also a collection of steamrrains and oldtimer cars. But also here: HOTTTT! Trying to stay in the shade as much as possible. Caught a bus back to town (last part towards the museum I got a ride with a fentleman in an airconditioned car, nice) and jumped off at Centre Point, an area with shops etc. Here somebody gave me a flyer for a specila promotion; foot massage 30 min, body massage 60 min plus free ear candling. The candling turns out to be bulls***, I later read on Wikipedia, but the massages were so good! My feet and back deserved this, after all I made them go through!
Walking around here gives you a constant thirst. I mean, it is so hot that you loose liquids constantly and the thirst just doesnt stop. And every cold drink, water, beer, limonade, tastes incredibly good since it clinches the thirst.
After the massage I sat down on a terace at the waterside near Adjung Samudera, had a salad and a beer and watch a beautiful sunset. I put the pic on Facebook yesterday. Seeing the sun set like that, in between the islands, is just so out of a movie.
Had noodles and fries egg in a local restaurant for €0,75 and went to sleep.

This morning at breakfast an example how nice, relaxed and simple life is here but why it is difficult for us to ever get used to this lifestyle. Every morning, the breakfast in the café of the hostel is the same; coffee, tea, toast, butter, jam and peanutbutter. Nothing more nothing less. This morning there was no peanutbutter. "Yes, we ran out yesterday. We ordered, maybe is here tomorrow". If you only need to stock up on 4 food items, how extremely difficult it must be to loose track of your inventory.... But hey, it's Borneo, I don't mind, they don't mind, nobody minds.. I'll just have jam today!
