LE Summit Malaysia - Day 3


My roommate, Delphine, arrived at 11:30pm last night, so had a bit of an interrupted sleep. Got up at 5:50am seeing as I was awake. Had a (cold) shower then went for a walk outside in the cool of the morning.

Here are some random points about the day:
• Saw a cow in the water at the beach. Was being chased by dogs apparently.
• Have seen a few birds, but don’t have a Malaysian bird book. Will be something to do when I get back. Some similar birds though – swallows, sparrows, doves.
• Have seen giant bumblebees around some flowers, and a squirrel in the trees
• Breakfast – bit different to home. Had corn on the cob, noodles and vegies, fried rice and fake meat little sausages. Along with fruit and toast.
• Went by coach today to a cultural village. Saw traditional dancing (and had a go) and tried stilt walking.
• Also stopped in at Kota Kinabalu – I went to the main shopping centre instead of the markets. Tried deep fried durian – was still smelly but tasted ok. Got a pedicure and had my hair washed and dried (wasn’t any hot water in the room that morning).
• Last stop of the day was a local chocolate shop – very nice! Bought some of the more interesting ones.
• Dinner was great – very nice vegies, rice, noodles and a delicious dessert of coconut jelly and mango jelly.
• Worship was very enjoyable – great singing and Pr Super Moesi took an excellent worship.
