Kota Kinabalu D2, Sabah

Day 2 at KK.
As usual.....wake up...bla-bla-blah.......breakfast......

We are on the long journey to Kinabalu National Park (N6 00.336 E116 32.578).
Too bad at that moment, I still don't have Garmin Que to track.......


After abt an hour more on the road.....the 'donkey ear' of Mount KK waving to us.......




30 mins later, we finally reached the Malaysian World Heritage Site - Kinabalu National Park.

Kinabalu National Park or Taman Negara Kinabalu in Malay, established as one of the first national parks of Malaysia in 1964, is Malaysia's first World Heritage Site designated by UNESCO in December 2000 for its "outstanding universal values" and the role as one of the most important biological sites in the world.



The Timpohon Gate (N6 01.785 E116 32.824) was the main attraction for us to travel here.......

Long way back......


After pass thru the gate.........


Enjoy the great achievement.......


After having enough the Fresh Air from the Kinabalu National Park, we refill our stomach at KFC, Ranau (N5 57.226 E116 39.872).

I found this along the road to Ranau.......Russian Rescue Team for the hikers.....


Don't know why, I personally feel the recipe here at Ranau was different from JB. Very crispy, delicious. Maybe only myself felt that.........

Around 4:30pm, our Tour Guide bring us to one of the nearest resort - Kinabalu Pine Resort (N5 58.913 E116 34.800)
It's full of Pine Tree, very nice place.......

Nothing much.......take a rest over here, and start our next journey to Dalit Beach (N6 09.226 E116 08.782).
The beautiful beach which is company with
The Shangri-la's Rasa Ria Resort (N6 09.240 E116 08.863).

And.......a lousy skill for the sunset.........


Interesting fire pole in the Resort Garden..........


The lobby of the Resort


Reached Promenade Hotel almost 9pm......simple dinner for the night.
Free myself after 10pm & fill in with beer around the hotel lounge. Beer taste good especially with price of RM25+ per jug!!
Due to the over excited journey, the beer does not drunk me for the night.
That's it for the Day 2!

Will be continue Day 3........

Digg!
