Sarawak Chamber Adventure

My trip this time is on the way to the Sarawak Chamber the biggest cave chamber in the world. On the way to the chamber we had some "minor" difficulties but we all made it safely in the end :)

Oh and few things I forgot to mention in the video:
1- The water was freezing cold so everyone was shivering most of the time
2- We were swimming the 500m with full clothes and shoes on
3- The river was against us on the way in which is why it took us much longer
4- The water was filled with guano (bat droppings), the guide said we should be careful not to get any in our mouths (easy said than done when puffing).

Other than that it was heaps fun :)

I have to say the pinnacles look much smaller in the video because it was far away, they might seem close but there was a big cliff between us and the pinnacles mountain.

This is part of my trip through Sarawak I was in Mulu National park for five days, then had another few days in Brunei and Miri.
Mulu is real gem! it has some of the biggest caves in the world and many places to jungle hike, and amazing views from the great cave structures, to the some of the longest underground rivers:

Millions of bats leaving the caves everyday and diverse wild life

And of course the bugs that make solid eye contact (and have a very load noise):

Brunei was also nice, but there is really not too much to do there other than the Sultan Mosque and the water village.

Nevertheless I kept myself busy with a traditional "bogie dish" to make up for lack of entertainment:

Here the fly kick pic in front of the Sultan Mosque, photo credit goes to my  camera; there was no one around for like 10 mins so I had to improvise a bit, this is the first fly kick picture that was taken by just putting the camera on timer burst mode and timing the kick yay

Sir, now you have to buy a Cambodian postcard!

Hola alle!

This one comes from the Angkor temples of Cambodia, I arrived here early in the morning, took a tuk tuk and came to see the famous temples of Angkor. The temples are amazing indeed! This story is of my encounter with a little Cambodian girl, who was so convincing that I had to buy her postcards.

After I filmed the blog I thought it would be great to get a video of that little girl, so I went back and tried to look for her all around the temples but I couldn't find here, then I was sad.

Here's my fly kick picture from the temples, Photo credit goes to Julian the French traveler:

The temples had so many great views at Angkor one picture wasn't enough! here's a second one is in front of Angkor Wat the biggest and most beautiful temple out of all. picture taken at sunrise. Photo credit goes to Andrew MacFarlane:

Here a picture of our tuk tuk in Phnom Penh before heading for dinner at the night market, a little bit packed I would say:

Dinner was nice at the market, Cambodian food is really nice and diverse. There is also quite a bit of street food that includes a variety of different bugs and frogs,

 I thought might as well try a spider while I'm here. The spider was very deep fried that it took over its taste, I think the closest thing to the spiders taste would be deep fried air:

 Yummy stuff!
