centipede in Malaysia

Prior to that, in the Kinabalu National Park in Kota Kinabalu has been to the cable car. But in Mulu where it is longer and higher above the trees. Moreover, Mulu Canopy Skywalk , according to the guide, is the longest cable car in the world, with a length of 480 meters. Sign in cableway Profile up cable car - a network of bridges between the trees. On the tree is ground with a wooden floor. From tree to tree next to the playground taut rope bridge. We have become accustomed to the constant chirping of cicadas, all sorts of insects, butterflies. At the top of the mountain above us. Below - the river. guide advises not be more than 3 people on the same axle. But the design of this very naderzhnaya. returned for lunch the way, the Malaysian money look like. As I already wrote in the first post about Malaysia , can be added to the price of zero, you get the price in dollars (ie 1 Ringgit = ~ 10p). Took the key to the protection of Tree Top Tower - 30 meter high tower. Seen it for free, just need 50ringgit to leave a deposit for the key. Along the way met Nicholas says the Botanical Garden was. Come with us. Tree Top Tower is located just off the main road in the jungle. climbed up the ladder to the top. Yeah, high. But as soon as we were on the cable car, there is not too low. And then just a booth with viewing windows. only Nicholas noticed a snake lurking in a tree. get down and back to the hostel to collect things. At the same time, our way of Sasha and Katya diverge. Them an hour to fly to Kota Kinabalu and then to Hong Kong . I'm in Kuching. Carried to the taxi guys. himself went on the advice of Nicholas to the botanical garden. 2 more hours before my flight. Botanical Garden - a hiking trail in the jungle, along which there are numerous billboards and signs. Each panel on a specific topic at all about the local environment, its history, varieties of plants. Initially I stayed reading each text.Then I was weary of this occupation, also still need to come back, have lunch and take a shower. Went out to the taxi rank. No one. He waited a few minutes and looked at the clock an hour before departure. I'll go on foot to the airport. Walk just 1.5 km away. Mulu Airport. Even though that was on foot, was in the waiting room first. airline flight to Kuching Malaysia Airlines takes 1.5 hours. Kuching - capital of Sarawak, Malaysia. Population (about half a million inhabitants) consists of Malays, Dayaks, Chinese and Indian origin of different nationalities. Took a taxi and drove to the more reserved guesthouse in Moscow Marco Polo's Travellers . Judging rated Tripadvisor, this is the best guesthouse in Kuching. hosts - a pair of Sam and Georgie. Very friendly and good-natured people. From the first moment it felt like we were coming home and you have been waiting here. Stand around all sorts of souvenirs, statuettes. On the walls along the corridor - pictures of previous guests. Immediately consulted about their route in Kuching, took a map of the city and bus schedules. Ok, now I am calm, my plan for 4 days in Kuching cleared. Typically, people visit here Bako National Park. Bako is better to give 2-3 days. There and beaches, trails interesting animals. But, first, I'm not ready to give stay in Kuching only one Bako. Secondly, I have to walk on the trails already rather tired. Tomorrow is the last day I decide to allocate to hike in the jungle, in the national park, Cuba (Kubah national park). After the flight a couple of hours sleep. Actually, last week at a constant rush and saturated routes from morning till night the order had left me exhausted. But it's worth it, close your eyes before going to bed, sweeps past gone a day to yourself ... do not help thinking what was going on today in the morning? It feels like the events of the morning of yesterday at least. woke up. Will be dark soon. I'll go have dinner and now I will to the famous Kuching Waterfront. Walk from the guesthouse for 10-15 minutes. yet reached, completely dark. A promenade is really wonderful! There full of life, lights illuminate the street, on which hang all over the trees. Along the waterfront are playing musicians, dancers try for crowds of onlookers. Everywhere trade ice cream, drinks, souvenirs.Periodically arrive and depart pleasure boats. All this makes the city a particularly festive and cozy. For some reason I thought that Moscow is now cold and dank vetryano ... November. On the other side of the river - Legislative Building, one of the symbols of Kuching. Kuching in Malay means cat. Cats are everywhere here, many statues of cats in different parts of the city. Where did the name Kuching - a moot point. But this is the most beautiful legend. When the founder of the city, an Englishman named James Brooke first landed on these sites, there was a small village on the banks of the Sarawak River. However, Brooke has decided that this place is well suited to be his residence. Going ashore, he asked the first available local resident, the name of his village.That, of course, did not understand, and decided that white is interested in, what kind of an unusual beast sitting next to him. The Beast was the most common cat. Therefore Malay and said Kuching. "Kuching, Kuching so." I just had a good nasnimal night scenery, I go to bed. Tomorrow, a trip to the national park cubes .
