On the Thursday we woke early to catch a mini bus to Cameron Highlands. It was only a couple of hours journey. When we arrived we wandered trying to find a guest house. It seemed places were a bit more expensive here, but we were determined to find a cheap-ish place. Luckily, we wandered into the town and a man came running after us offering a room for 30 RM which is £6, but shared bathroom. We had a look and actually it was really nice so we took it.

After an hour walking round we finally found a nice little guest house down one of the side streets which met our budget called Star Lodge.

A man arrived and told us to follow him and we walked about 5 minutes to the pier and waited there, they obviously thought it was a dangerous place and we were not capable of walking 5 minutes on our own. We boarded the boat and headed out around the island. We finally slowed down at Shark Bay, which was supposed to be our first stop, w...
