Borneo

We flew into Kuching in Borneo for a few days. kuching means "cat" in Malaysian and there are reminders of that all around the town. If the multitude of four legged felines roaming the streets aren't enough to remind you where you are then the massive statues adorning roundabouts and junctions won't let you forget!












Sea serpents steal the scene from the cats when it comes to the riverbank, swallowing up passing boats.



No visit to Borneo could be complete without a visit to the Orang-utan sanctuary. I was so busy with the video camera that I didn't get many photos. I'll upload some video of the gorgeous mum and baby when I get back. we only had an hour watching them; the park rangers are reintroducing them to the wild so try and limit their time around humans.
