Borneo and Melaka / Malacca

So Borneo was a complete waste of time - what a let down!! After we landed we checked into a hotel as we were fed up of slumming it - it turned out that we were the only two white prople staying there!!

We visited a cat museum which was cool but after we left i managed to fall into a drain and rip my trousers and cut my leg - ouch! In fact the real reason i fell over was that i was ogling a group of male runners.... very embarrasing.

We went to the Orangutan Sanctuary to see how the rehab program works - hmmm all they have are 3 orangutans and big open confinements with a platform and a jungle gym type swingy thing - not at all like the wild! There were poor little monkeys who looked like they were in jail - absolutly no toys to play with or bars to swing from. They had 3 mad sun bears who kept walking back and forth, they had nothing to occupy them. Also, I managed to fall over AGAIN on a patch of soggy wet moss - I banged my bad knee and scraped the side of my leg - the guide showing us round didn't even bother to ask me if i was ok - cheeky monkey!

So now i have a bruise on my knee, a chunk missing from my ankle and a giant bruise on my calf - it hurts like hell!!

Other than those two places we visted a Cultural Village which was really cool - we got to learn about all the tribes who live in Borneo.

Now we are in Melaka - it's horrible! It's by the sea but constantly smells like sewage - nice!

We are taking the bus to Singapore tomorrow and I can't wait!!! I am fed up of being stared at like i am some celebrity!

I will update again soon! Can't wait to get to OZ!!! Yipee!!
