Kota Kinabalu - March 2013 - Day 1

After much contemplating and '1 2 zoommm' amongt the group, the decision was

KOTA KINABALU 

WE ARE COMING!!

23rd March 2013
Our flight from LCCT departed on time..
Landed at KK Airport at 10.00am..

and then the drama began..

Our driver was not there to greet us..
Calls made to the office not answered.
Then the driver called me..saying he is on the way..
And 'his on the way' was at least 40 minutes later..

Is this a 'bad' omen or what?

With 11 paxes and many luggages, we managed to squeeze into this van


first stop..breakfast...

With a satiated team, we were on our way to Kota Kinabalu Park..

But on the way, must stop also for our load of Vitamic C...fresh local fruits...

Sabah pineapples...sweet, juicy and fibreless

Sabah organic bananas 

Our first glimpse of Kota Kinabalu Mountain..the peak is hidden by the heavy clouds..
