Borneo Babymoon Day 4

Forgive me for the looooooooooong hiatus. I got lazy over ramadhan and it just dragged on from there. I wasn't too keen on having people drool over food pictures while fasting. Then i realized I didnt even finish blogging about our baby moon trip. Sorrreeeee!!! Lets see if I still remember what went down...

I dragged hubs outta bed the next morning at 545am to catch the sunrise coz morning comes pretty early there. He was eager to get back to the warm bed but I stayed and watched for a while. It was beautiful. It fogged the day before but come morning- the skies parted and made for perfect viewing of the mount kinabalu. It actually looks like a big ass rock. But i found it to be just so beautiful.

After a pathetic breakfast at the hotel we went looking for the natural fish spa place which was recommended by foursquare. We arrived pretty early at 830am and were the only people there. The staff manning the river were really nice and friendly and laughed at our crazy screams piercing the early morning air. I had never been to a fish spa before- despite klang valley being overrun by fish spa places of late. And it had to be that the first time i went- the fishes were on steroids. They were HUGEEEE!!!  like the kind u would steam whole and eat. I KID YOU NOT! They came really close to shore when they saw us coming, to the point that the top of their body was above water. Like they were waiting to pounce on us. It took me a good 20  mins before i found the courage to dip my feet in. The man kept telling us to go in deeper and deeper then conveniently told me that there was also a HUGE African catfish somewhere in the mix of giant fishes. Of course the deepest i went after that was just enough to submerge my ankles.

Hubs' screams n girly squeals did nothing to empower me. I dont blame him. At one point I was busy counting my toes to make sure they were all still there. It starts off being ticklish then the fishies will get excited and start sucking real hard that it starts to hurt- at which point ill begin looking  for bloody water and missing toes. Thank god we left the place with all toes intact.

Dead skin-less and high from being mauled by giant fishes, we made our way to a dairy farm that hubs was eager to visit. The Desa Dairy Farm is located on the Mesilau Plateau, about 30 mins from the Kinabalu National Park. The road leading up the place was really bad. It didnt help that we were driving a proton saga which bumped on the road like doggy on a dashboard. But it was worth having our bones rattled coz it was the most beatiful farm i had ever seen in Malaysia. The smell of the farm leaves much to be desired- but it was really beautiful. The cool climate and high altitude made it feel like we were in another country. We wanted to buy some milk but they only had the 1 litre packs on hand and i didn't think I'd be able to down a entire litre in one go.

We made our way down the mountain after that back to KK town to return our rented car and to catch our flight home. We stopped by the Phillipine Market to buy some cheap avocadoes and some dried sotong.

Then we went back to Sutera Harbour where i had the best cheesecake in the world!! n i dont even like cheesecake. But i was so bored waiting at the lounge and the name- fresh cream cheesecake just called out to me. I love fresh cream anything! and boy was it good! It was crazy good. That was the last thing we ate in kk. Well save for the ice cream i had at the airport. We flew home shortly after that- and that was the end of our babymoon. This will be our last holiday with just the both of us for a long time to come. We had a wonderful time and i look forward to returning to Sabah again in the future.

Yeay finished blogging about Sabah!! FINALLYY!!
