KKK Cafe, What Were You Thinking...?!
Day 31
10.08.2005
Day 31. The last proper day! And it was a day of extreme heat, right from the offset of morning. Today was mostly spent shopping in Kuching for last-minute gifts for the family! And myself! It was also a day dedicated to eating (e.g. gorging 'til we were dead upon cheesecake!)
By the end of the day I'd bought a new t-shirt, a big perang machete knife, odd cans of drink (bird nest included!), monkey keyrings and various strange foodstuffs... to name just a few purchases! As a group, we bought Adam some wine and Su a cutelry set thing as thankyou gifts... just what we thought they'd want!
Back to th'ostel in the afternoon, for packing all our Borneo lives away into our rucksacks. The end is nigh! We'd decided to spend our last evening together having a nice meal at a local restaurant. It seemed the dress code for us was sarongs all round - but not me, non, nicht moi! It was a nice meal, although everyone felt subdued that our Borneo expedition was almost over...
Adam left the table early to head back to the hostel as he wasn't feeling too good. A while later, we all left and had many photos taken in the street as a group. Calvey decided we needed to book a taxi to the airport for the very early morning departure to the airport. He rang Adi, a taxi guy we'd had before, using a public telephone. Adi was very drunk! But he did promise to pick us up...
Back at the hostel, a group of us went up to the roof for an hour or so. Mucho malarky was had, and the pictures should give you some ideas!
It was bed at 2am ...ready, or not, for a 4:30am wake-up!
Please sir, can I stay another month?!
