a trip to sarawak - part 1

In spite of my fear of flying (airplane), I have always enjoyed the air-travelling. I never failed to be filled with awe - everytime i looked out the windows i saw beautiful trees, mountains, green plains, rivers, the ocean.. and the most beautiful of all are the cottony-clouds. Gazing at such natural beauty I couldn't help but to wonder how awesome is our God.. and how much more marvelous is the Kingdom of God?

I went to Sarawak with KY, Jo, and Jun last week. It was an 8-day trip, but we spent 6 days in Mulu alone.. and honestly, 6 days are just NOT enough. We flew from KL-Miri, and in an hour's time on reaching Miri, we were already on FAX - on our way to Mulu. The first day was a free-and-easy one. Coz most of us were very tired (lack of sleep maybe), after checking-in our hotel at Mulu HQ and confirming our itineries, all of us went to slumber...

Early next morning, we gathered at HQ coz we're gonna explore caves tat day! So we walked on boardwalks for an hour plus and soon we're heading towards the entrance of deer cave. This is a very enchanting cave. The entrance was huge. You can see the silhouette of Abraham Lincoln from inside the cave, as shown in this pic taken by Jun. Initially we walked on boardwalks, all limbs relaxed as though we were shopping in a cave. Then we stepped down some staircases and very soon, our journey was totally laiden with slippery rocks.
