Back Into the Wild, Wild World

I arrived at Kuching airport just past midnight and was ‘shocked’ to discover that there were no taxi at the taxi stand! And this is supposed to be an ‘international’ airport. Anyway I ended up calling my younger brother who lives nearby at BDC to pick me up. This is something unacceptable to anyone visiting Kuching that the airport and tourism authorities should look into.

I have emails to answer; meetings to attend and things to follow up even though I have only been away for 4 days of which only one is a working day. So my photos and stories about my Kenyir Kayaking Expedition would have to wait a bit; suffice to say at this moment that Geoff Foote, Mel and myself had the ‘complete’ kayaking experience on our 3 ½ days paddling on Tasik Kenyir. Complete as in having overcast skies, unbearable heat, bright crystal clear skies, glassy-like surfaces, turbulent waters, storm, rain, waves, wind, etc Yeah, we had a swell time.

Oh. And this is FH2o (in his monkey suit) sporting a ‘wild’ 4 days unshaven look as he paddles his way through the traffic jam at Tabuan Jaya this morning slowly immersing himself back again into the wilds of this corporate world. *sigh*
