Bako National Park
After spending a few days relaxing, shopping, and catching up on emails I decided I needed some adventure again. To fill this desire I headed out with two others from my group to Bako National Park, a trip that took just 1hr by bus and 1/2 by boat. Once in Bako we trekked to Kecil beach and the place was absolutely beautiful. Deep Blue water, hardly anyone about, and some great places to jump off the rocks/ cliffs. I actually climbed up one cliff that, once on top, had the local boat drivers yelling at me "you first man ever on top!". This thought had me feeling pretty good about myself and gave me a lot of extra motivation to make the jump off this cliff. The jump itself was loads of fun but I did land hard and bruise my tail bone, making sitting a painful experience for the next few days. Still as I swam to shore the boat drivers called me over and asked me how i got on top of the cliff. I Climbed I told them, and it wasn't overly difficult. Again they told me I was the first bloke up there and when I was walking off one guy yelled out and asked me my name. I told him, and pointing at the cliff he said "Kearrin rock". So i'm famous at Baku now, hahaha.
The rest of the day was spent lazing on the beach and taking photos before heading back for our afternoon boat and coming across some beautiful Silver Langur mothers with their newborn babies. I would recommend Baku park to everyone who has the time when in Kuching as Kecil beach is just so beautiful. Arriving back late afternoon we all felt it had been a fantastic day.
