It was elections day on Saturday, 8th March 2008 and it was raining when we arrived at Kg Bengoh, Borneo Highlands.

But I needn’t have worried as everyone took the high water level and flow in stride as we arrived at Kg Danu in record time! It was not the best of conditions for kayaking but everyone enjoyed their rain forest kayaking experience - or so they said so!
An International Group: Edo, Peter, Nick, Lauren, Edwina, Johanna, Sean, Brenda, Carolyn & Chew with FH2o.
Edo from the Netherlands carried on with Bev to do the full trip to Kg Semadang also reaching there in record time! Goes to show that even if conditions are not ideal, one can always elect to be happy and paddle on regardless!
