1.) Manukan Island is situated some 20 minutes off Kota Kinabalu by boat. See the outlines of Mt Kinabalu far behind? It felt weird to think that just yesterday - we were shivering in the bitter cold of its rocky terrains, and now we're soaking in the hot sun on a boat. |

2.) Upon arrival at the jetty of Manukan Island. |

9.) The chalet where we stayed in, and where I cooped up 20 hours a day after falling sick from over-exhaustion of the Mt Kinabalu climb. Yeah, I'm a pussy. |
