Introduction to today's journey

Today's journey takes me relaxing along the foreshore at Papar before later in the day heading back to Kota Kinabalu for a night flight towards Singapore.

 
 

Today's Journey

Caption

I head out on the beach in the early morning as the calm waters lap against the soft sand.

Looking across the bay past Kota Kinabalu to the islands I had explored on my first day here.

 

Caption

The spectacular Mount Kinabalu towers above the hills to the north. Its jagged summits look small from here. The highest summit which we stood upon is the leftmost peak.

 

Caption

About half a kilometer along the beach I reach a jetty stretching out into the bay towards an island about a kilometre offshore.

 

Caption

Returning along the beach as the tide continues to come in. It is nearly full now.

Relaxing at breakfast looking over the water under the unsettled sky.

A row boat in the distance heads out into the calm water.

Eventually it returns under sail back to the shore before the tide goes out.

After a big journey around the top of Borneo, we spend the day relaxing around the pool.

In the late afternoon we head to the airport and catch another brilliant sunset before heading south westward to Singapore.
