Once again, Paul and I stuffed ourselves silly at Suang Tain Seafood Restaurant. Tonight’s dishes were stir fried choy sum, scallops with ginger and spring onion, crab with salted egg, beef noodles, lemon crispy skin chicken and the fried eggplant that we sampled last night. Mmm, mmm, mmm! The aftermath!

Tanjung Aru beach
In my last blog I made mention of some dodgy reviews and Tanjung Aru beach was one of them. Definitely not the beautiful beach that was described, with the litter strewn the whole way along not helping its cause. There are, however, a number of outdoor bars and dining venues, so no doubt this place … Continue reading
Twin-Sky – one review that was on the money
We set off on foot last night to find Twin-Sky Seafood restaurant, or more specifically, Suangtain Seafood at Kampung Air. Having followed some reviews from both trip advisor and our travel guide book on this trip, I was not feeling confident.

Goodbye Gayana
Knowing that all good things must come to an end, I was still dragging my thong-clad feet yesterday when we had to leave Gayana Eco Resort – our ‘home’ for the past 5 days. We managed to have another blissful day before our departure however, starting with breakfast: We took in the amazing sights, including … Continue reading
A day away at Bunga Raya Island Resort Spa
While staying at Gayana Eco Resort, we took up the offer of spending the day at their sister resort on the other end of the island, Bunga Raya. I think the pictures will speak for themselves; it was a sensational day! Heading out for a look underwater. A delicious lunch and cocktails with a waterfall … Continue reading
A KK sunset
This was the gorgeous view that we had on our first night in Kota Kinabalu city – watching the sun go down over the harbour.
Watching the sun go down with a tequila sunrise
Too late for sunrise
I got up just before 6 this morning to capture the sun rise, but alas, I had missed it. I had been waking on the hour in anticipation; if only I had sprung out of bed that bit earlier. Funny how you spring out of bed at this time when on holidays, but roll out … Continue reading
