I AM THE BORNEO EXPLORER 婆罗洲探险者

This is the stray dog stay near my neighborhood. She has fluffy fur, a fat body, a cute face, and a tame character. She has this milky white fur, so I name her "niu nai" in Chinese, and translate to English it means Milk. Is quite pity sometime see her rounding on the neighborhood. She looks so cute and adorable. She likes to be pat on the head. Everytime when I'm back from work, she just lye in front of my gate resting. And when I call her name, she will come and bow down her head to let me pat. Lols what a cute little doggy. I tried to keep her inside my garage few time, she just keep on barking and wanted to go out. So maybe she's already get use to the freedom, and don't want to have serious commitment. I then just let her go....

Our last hope for getting a boat to the Sampadi Island.... Well, it was around 1PM when we reach this village, and yep we manage to look for a boat alright, but it went off to the island already. And for the ticketing stall, it had close early today due to the fasting month for the Malay people. *both hand slap face and deep inhale* OMG~~~ there goes my Sampadi Island trip for today. Guys, lesson learn today is Must make proper arrangement before go for a trip :P I will get to that island in the future!

After failing to go to the Pulau Sampadi, we have try our luck to look for boat at another village nearby. And we reach the Rambungan Village, as this is another village with lesser house than the Sampadi village. But there is a very long jetty, and there is a group of people fishing there. We went ask for direction, but they have no clue at all, as they are from Kuching (just like us). They are here for the sake of fishing only. Check out the view at the jetty, breathtaking right. Mangrove tress can be seen just right next to the jetty. Just look at that blue sky... and the island nearby. It would be super good that able to go visit the island. I'm imagining jumping into the sea for a swim, drinking coconut drinks, taking a nap under the tree shade. well, look for another boat - FAIL But we didn't give up that easily, so we proceed to the Telega Air, this is another small village, where I went to the Talang Satang Island last time. ------------- So read on baby ----------

Went to the Sampadi Island last Sunday~~well almost there, cause we can't find any boat to sail us over to the island. We can only enjoy the magnificent view of the island on the Sampadi beach. However, this time I have took a series of HDR photos to share with you guys. Feel free to download it. Cheers This is the Sampadi village, where only a few houses available here. A bit disappointed, cause according to the village there, the island is just 15 mins of boat ride. The island is just there in front of us, with no boat available, this will be just a dream. So beside the Sampadi Island, there are still others small island. One of the island that I visted before are the Talang Satang Island Read it here Frankly speaking my friends and I are quite disappointed, as we already equipped with our camera, food, drinks. We try our luck again, as we head for another village nearby to ask for more information, ----------------- read on my next blog ------------

Start my trip at 8AM morning; drive around 1 ½ hours reach the Jangkar Village. We stop by to ask for direction, and were told that the waterfall is not here, we have to drive deep to reach the village inside. Drove another ½ hour, finally we got the correct path. There are only a few houses available in the Kampung Jantan (where the waterfall is). Most of them work as a rubber tapper. We need a guide to walk us to the fall, and hire a local kid and tip him after we reach the fall. The walk start at 10.15AM, and my team reach the fall at around 11AM. Was a bit late, cause one chubby friend need to stop frequently for rest. The fall is magnificent. It’s a treasure that was yet to be discovered by most of the people. The fall is about 3 to 4 stories height. And one of the local guy actually jump from the middle of the waterfall, that’s crazy!!! The weather is HOT, a perfect time to soak in the cold breezing water! My dear reader, this is a highly recommended place to visit next time when...

So I will click and drag my...

Few years back, there are not much user friendly programs that allows us to edit our photo. The common one will be Photoshop, CorelDraw, and etc. I’m not good at photoshop or any other software, so is kind of hard for me to edit my image.
