Recharging our batteries at Lucy's hospitable home away from home, chillaxing on Kota Kinabalu's hidden beaches and gearing up (i) for the upcoming safari tour to one of the richest wildlife regions in all of Southeast Asia, the Lower Kinabatangan floodplain, and (ii) for a trip to some of the world’s top dive sites off the coastal town of Semporna, the town with its feet in the sea, on Sabah’s east coast.

Taking the Sairah express bus from Kota Kinabalu’s Inanam long-distance bus terminal (9 km north of the city centre) to Kampung Kinabatangan for MYR 40.- or US$ 11.80 per person for the 300-km long scenic ride, rendezvousing uneventfully at the kampung's medan selera with a driver from Senbil Jungle B&B +6019842089, our recommended tour operator for the next two days, and driving through neat palm-oil plantations and dense riverine jungle to the Senbil Jungle B&B Lodge on the north bank of the mighty, sullen Lower Sungai Kinabatangan.
